This incredibly rare autographed test pressing of Hotel California came across my desk when I was program director at KLRB, Carmel, California in 1976. I am the original owner and it's been in my possession and carefully stored and unplayed in a heavy vinyl sleeve since then.

"COLUMBIA RECORD PRODUCTIONS SANTA MARIA TEST PRESSING" on white label.

Matrix / Runout (A Side, etched, exc. "STERLING"): 1S 7E 1084 A - 2 RE CSM "IS IT SIX O'CLOCK YET?" STERLING LH
Matrix / Runout (B Side, etched, exc. "STERLING"): 1S 7E-1084 B - 4 RE CSM "V.O.L. IS FIVE PIECE LIVE" STERLING LH

Includes two (2)! original b&w 3-piece fold out posters of the band (that's what it came with) NM

Vinyl NM (slight mark on both labels similar to a spindle mark, yet definitely unplayed with no scratches, smudges or marks of any kind on the vinyl itself).

Plain white jacket with all autographs intact (says "Steve Thanks" - that would be me!) VG+.

Plain white inner sleeve. Stored in a new poly sleeve.

FREE secure U.S. shipping, insured to full value of final auction price.
Signature required on delivery.
International shipping varies by buyer location.
I ship exclusively with 'Mighty Music Mailers' Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays.

Btw, if you like this item, be sure and check out the rest of my stuff - 7" & 12" vinyl, 70's punk, Stiff Records, colored vinyl, picture discs - most never played, many promo only items, Fillmore West/Winterland/Family Dog handbills and posters, all guaranteed original as everything was acquired by me personally in the late 60's, 70's and early 80's.
I'm downsizing my collection and I try to grade conservatively.
Drop me a note if there's something you're looking for.
