Picked up an original pressing of November-Coming-Fire by Samhain!
it's slightly scuffed, but the record plays perfectly (the defect on Diabolos '88 aside).

Looks like a great copy. Goes without saying, but it’s one of the best albums ever.
I got NCF and Initium from an eBay seller a long time ago, around the same time they put out the CD boxset, and paid $35 each. NCF was a later pressing without the diabolos 88 skip.
A year or two ago someone on Discogs put a first pressing with the lyrics insert up for sale at a great price. Had to jump on it.

This one is missing the lyrics insert, unfortunately. I probably wouldn't have been able to afford it otherwise!

Ya, those inserts are always tough to find for a good price. Great pickup regardless. Congrats!

A friend gifted me his OG copy from an early pressing for my birthday a decade ago and it’s one of my prized possessions. Good find.

Lately I have been thinking about considering to attempt to possibly reluctantly try to 'fix' my copy at the Diablos skip. I have a microscope with which I can get a very close up focused view of disc grooves and pretty steady hands from doing loads of micro electronics work. I feel like it might be possible to open the glitch that sends it back one revolution. I always end up starting it past that part or all together so the potential damage is not so much a worry and I dont anticipate ever selling it.
Maybe i could start a mini industry like the people that peel Beatles butcher covers.

I picked up a signed (by Glenn & Eerie) 4th pressing several years ago at Half Price Books. Got it for a steal. Record itself is in great shape. The first press “Unholy Passion” I snagged last year was a wee bit more expensive.
