The Jacksons – Victory
Released: 1984
Label: Epic/CBS Records
Notes:
Front cover: I just got this and the cellophane was still on it so it’s in great shape. I got it because it had a promo sticker on the front that I didn’t have. Very easily scanned and mild cleaning.
Gatefold: There was, of course, no way to split this into two pieces. As a result, a nice fold goes right between Marlon & Michael. I removed it as convincingly as I could. Hopefully, you like the result.
Promo sticker: The sticker is pristine. Just scanned. Didn’t need any cleanup.
Back cover: This even has the Warner Bros. sticker near the bar code. I decided to leave it as it’s a bit more esoteric and getting rid of it would have ben quite difficult.
Sleeve-front: This was relatively simple. It has some wrinkles that had to be removed but they’re gone.
Sleeve-back: This side has far more wrinkles and the only way to remove them all was to replace the black altogether. Looks brand new now.
Merchandise insert: This insert had likely never been touched. I didn’t even know this was part of the package until I got it home. Nice score! Just scanned and uploaded.
Labels: The labels were decent. Darker labels pick up finger oil easily and both of these had a little. I managed to get rid of it.
