Aerosmith - Draw The Line
LP Columbia JC 34856 STERLING 1st Press Pitman VG+
Raven RECORDS collector copy: Original U.S. Aerosmith with the right collector bones: a 1977 Columbia Draw The Line LP with Pitman pressing evidence, STERLING mastering in the dead wax, and strong VG+ vinyl. The jacket is rough, but the record is the star here. This is the kind of affordable original-era copy that makes sense when the buyer cares about real pressing details, actual photos, and playback over vague vintage hype.
Aerosmith - Draw The Line is listed in the Raven Records style: actual-condition photos, clear grading, pressing/version evidence where available, and careful handling for collectors who play and preserve their records.
COLLECTOR SNAPSHOT
Columbia JC 34856, original U.S. Pitman pressing evidence, STERLING mastered on both sides. Produced by Jack Douglas, recorded at The Record Plant and The Cenacle, and housed in the recognizable Al Hirschfeld cover artwork. The sleeve grade keeps the price grounded; the vinyl and pressing evidence are the reason to look twice.
