Description: METALLICA - "Ride The Lightning" GREEN Picture Disc; U.K. Edition!!!Music For Nations #SB-18026 Mis pressed and Not For Public Sale! ULTRA RARE "For Promotional Use Only - Not For Sale" - NEW, UNPLAYED, NEAR MINT, MISPRESSED, U.K. GREEN PICTURE DISC EDITION - Very Limited, Hard to Find - Highly Sought After METALLICA Collectable VINYL Picture Disc - NEW / MINT, Stored and Unplayed for 20 years! "This "Ride The Lightning" LP Picture Disc was manufactured by Bernett Records under license from Megaforce Records. Bernett Records pressed these picture discs for MUSIC FOR NATIONS RECORDS of London, U.K. - Instead of using the original "Ride The Lightning" blue ink as requested by M.F.N., Bernett accidentally used green ink instead, also MISTAKENLY Labeling Track 3, Side 1 as "FOR WHOM THE BELLS TOLL". As a result the few copies that were pressed using the green ink were designated and held for "Promotional Use - Not For Sale" and stamped on the bottom of Side 2. These green misprinted copies were not made available for public sale, and that along with their very limited number of pressings make them extremely RARE, collectable, and valuable. This particular copy was acquired, kept, and stored as part of my personal collection via a Music For Nations Records associate in London near mint, unused, unplayed, with the vinyl untouched ever since. All U.K. picture discs both for sale or promotion would come only in a thick protective, clear, unsealed plastic sleeve - This rare mispressed disc is in near mint, unplayed condition. Ride The Lightning (1984): 1. Fight Fire With Fire2. Ride The Lightning3. For Whom The Bells Toll (Mistaken Label Print for Song Title)4. Fade To Black5. Trapped Under Ice6. Escape7. Creeping Death 8. The Call Of Ktulu All sales are final, please feel free to ask any questions.
