    @Msabot1 thanks for the info. Any idea how it will look? It appears to have a signature in the dead wax right under MFSL 1-023 but difficult to tell what it says.

    If it’s the real deal I’m stocked! Been wanting to get this for the last few years and stumbled on it locally over the weekend.

    In the dead wax you will see SR/2...Ricker mastered a lot of the early MFSL offerings...How does yours sound?...I got mine when first issued..Got a copy of the White Album also..All those releases that Ricker mastered can only be described as sonic bliss...

    Thanks for the description.

    SR/2 is what I am seeing. Sounds great. Much better than the reissues I have.

    I have an opportunity to grab the white album from the same seller but he wants $250 for a sealed copy. Trying to convince myself to just go get it.

    You have the genuine article dude..those were cut in very limited quantities with the master tape as the source...Ricker was a master at his craft..Gee..I think I might have paid 17 and 25 bucks respectively for mine..that was back in the day though..
