Wow! This is something. The LP is in excellent shape with some inaudible marks and plays great. Gatefold cover has minor wear. The record itself is very rare, but what makes this extra special is the shikishi (thick, gold-rimmed Japanese autograph board traditionally used for signatures and short messages from artists and celebrities) which is signed, "Arigato Gozaimasu - Mal Waldron" (Thank you very much). This is not something that came with the record but would have been gathered separately and remained with it, presumably, since the album's release in Japan in 1970. You're unlikely to see the record again in this glorious shape, let alone with the shikishi.
