This beautiful, but heartbreaking, love song is one of my Dylan favorites. This is a copy of the Italian pressing, which has a large spindle hole and a wonderful picture sleeve. Very few of Dylan's 1960s singles were released with picture sleeves — at least, in the U.S. The U.S. copy of "I Threw It All Away," on Columbia 44826, didn't have one, though the Italians were more fortunate. The photo of Dylan is from the cover of his
Nashville Skyline album. This copy has pristine mint audio, and otherwise looks brand new. The picture sleeve has some ringwear on the back.\r\n
For the more curious among you, of the 15 U.S. Bob Dylan singles from the 1960s, here are the four that came with a picture sleeve—all of which are worth $100 or more:\r\n
\r\n- Blowin' In The Wind (promo release only), 1963\r\n
- Subterranean Homesick Blues, 1965\r\n
- Positively 4th Street, 1966\r\n
\r\n- I Want You, 1966\r\n
