Original 1979 US Warner Bros pressing of Dire Straits' second album Communiqué, catalogue HS 3330. This is the early Capitol Records Winchester pressing, with WW1 / WW2 matrix markings, original WB labels and embossed envelope-style non-barcode sleeve.

The vinyl is in exceptional Near Mint (NM) condition, retaining a superb clean gloss with very little evidence of play. The original embossed outer sleeve is VG+, showing some light age/storage wear and a small 'cut' to the open edge as visible in the photographs.
