For your consideration is a copy of Warzone Lower East Side Crew L.E.S.C e.p. On Revelation Records. This version is the Aborted Press variant with white 1st press labels and orange markered sleeve. This is by far the rarest official version of this legendary NYHC 7 of only 41 copies. This copy is UNCIRCULATED/UNPLAYED and comes straight from the rev vault over 15 years ago to me and finally to the new owner. The record includes mint large fold out inserts, bi-fold sleeve and mint vinyl. The most recent completed listing I could find is from 2007. These have changed hands on the private market a few times since but rarely in this shape with the correct cover and all inserts together.

Warzone
Lower East Side Crew : 7
1987
-------------
Test press : 12 black vinyl
1st press : 1000 black vinyl
Light blue labels with hand-drawn designs in black ink,
black and white sleeve. Some have the B-side label
numbered for some reason and it seems that the numbers
are always in the range of 1-100. Maybe the first 100 were
numbered? There was 41 copies of the initial pressing that
come with white paper labels rather than blue and have the
Warzone logo on the sleeve colored in with orange magic
marker. Besides the normal lyric sheet, a number of the
first press come with one of two fold out inserts that have
a photo of a band member on either side.
