JOURNEY Escape Vinyl LP Original 1981 US 1st Press TC 37408 In Shrink Hype NM/VG

Offered here is an exceptional, collector-grade copy of Journey's masterpiece, Escape. This record was purchased brand new by its original owner and has been carefully stored in a smoke-free home. The vinyl has been spun exactly two times total and handles like a brand-new record.

VINYL CONDITION: NEAR MINT (NM)

The vinyl surface is pristine, brilliant, and retains its full, gorgeous factory gloss. Labels are immaculate with deep colors and zero spindle wear. This record plays beautifully, cleanly, and quietly across all tracks; a complete test play showed that no light blemishes were audible.

OUTER JACKET CONDITION: NEAR MINT (NM)

The original embossed outer jacket is perfectly structured with crisp corners, razor-sharp edges, and no shelf wear. It remains entirely protected inside its original factory shrink wrap, which was opened carefully along the right edge to access the record.

The shrink wrap retains the large original clear hype sticker stating features the hit Who's Crying Now etc. alongside the original, untouched vintage $6.99 price sticker from the Record Bar.

INNER SLEEVE CONDITION:

VERY GOOD (VG) The original custom lyric inner sleeve is included. Due to the weight of the heavy vinyl resting inside over the decades, it shows the usual age-related splits along the bottom and side seams. The artwork, credits, and lyrics remain perfectly clean, bright, and completely legible.

FIRST PRESSING MATRIX AND RUNOUT DETAILS:

This copy features the highly desired original Masterdisk stampings, indicating a genuine first US cutting:

Side 1 Matrix: AL–37408–1 D (Stamped: MASTERDISK with faint P and O customatrix markings)

Side 2 Matrix: BL–37408–1 B (Stamped: MASTERDISK with faint P and O customatrix markings)

TRACKLIST:
