The catalog number MCA-3029 is clearly visible on the front cover, spine, and back. The spine is intact with sharp lettering. The RIAA gold record award seal is present on the back cover. The packaging is a gatefold jacket, though it remains protected by the original plastic wrap. 💎 CONDITION vinyl: Presumed MINT (unplayed) cover: Factory-sealed, never opened 🧾 NOTES FOR COLLECTORS This is the definitive "Flame Cover" edition, one of the most famous withdrawn covers in rock history. Street Survivors was released on October 17, 1977. Just three days later, the band’s chartered plane crashed, tragically killing lead singer Ronnie Van Zant, guitarist Steve Gaines, and backup singer Cassie Gaines. In response to the tragedy and out of respect for the victims, MCA Records immediately recalled the album and replaced the cover art—which showed the band standing amidst flames—with a more somber image against a plain black background. Finding an original first pressing with the flame cover in its original shrink wrap is a top priority for any serious Southern Rock collector or music historian. 🔍 MATRIX / LABEL DETAILS The labels are the standard MCA rainbow/tan design period-accurate for 1977. 📦 SHIPPING 📮 STANDARD: 5–30 DAYS — FREE SHIPPING ✈️ INTERNATIONAL PRIORITY: 5–15 DAYS — 30$ 🚚 FEDEX EXPRESS: 3–7 DAYS — 65$ WORLD OF AUDIOPHILE (EBAY SELLER) 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK • FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE FOLLOW ON INSTAGRAM: @WORLD_OF_AUDIOPHILE ⭐ LATEST BUYER FEEDBACK “ABSOLUTELY STUNNING VINYL!

Absolute flawless international shipping, was fun to see all the stops the package made during delivery, van halen box set was packed professionally and shipped priority without any import tax at all. Item was exactly as described and the only one available anywhere, item was unopened sealed and considered extremely rare from 1984. This was the best experience I've ever had on ebay, all questions were answered directly and promptly. Definitely saving this seller for future purchases. Thank you
The records were as described, honest seller. I wish I had information from seller that the tracking wasn’t to my address, that it was going to a different address, and then being forwarded. Following the tracking had me concerned. So I recommend buyers communicate with the seller to understand that the tracking may not (at least in my case) indicate that it might go to a different address. Once it was forwarded I did receive tracking to my home. Still, great records, safe packaging.
The Shipping is Excellent! I love that it has to travel. The Packaging is excellent! Couldn't ask for more. The cassette came exactly as described and looked just like in the pictures. The Value is definetly there! I highly reccomend this seller. Hurry before all the good ones leave. I'll be back for more. Thank you for everything!
