Believe it or not, I found a copy of this in a thrift store for 20 cents! My best thrift store buy ever (and one I don't expect to ever outdo!). The store was having a sale-6 records for a dollar. I only found 5 things to buy, and when the clerk's head looked like it was going to explode trying to figure out that she owed me 16 2/3 cents back from my dollar, I magnanimously told her to keep the change.

I got it about 10 years ago when I was just getting into collecting and I didn't really know what I had until some time later. It's not perfect, but it is a nice listenable copy, maybe VG++. Even at that, it would probably sell easily for over $1,000. The price just keeps going up (mint copies go for $4K-$5K). I suppose I might sell it some day, but I am determined to do so only to fund the purchase of something I really want.
