DESCRIPTION

Original first U.S. press of “Bleach” on Sub Pop (1989), fully matching all early-print characteristics. The back cover features the correct Sub Pop address 4710 University Way NE, Suite 1606, the early Lisa Orth layout, front photo by Tracy Marander, and the original Dale Crover credit block. The spine uses the correct narrow white early font.
The shrink-wrap is the thin late-80s Sub Pop factory wrap, without tear-strip, showing typical stretching and minor corner stress — exactly as expected for an untouched first pressing.

The record remains factory sealed, and the cover shows extremely clean preservation.
The edition is confirmed as 1989 Sub Pop first press; vinyl color (white or black) cannot be determined without opening.
