Dreamgirls: Original Broadway Cast Album Vinyl Record

This is a vintage 12-inch vinyl LP sleeve for the 'Dreamgirls' Original Broadway Cast Album, released circa 1982 by Geffen Records. The cover art features a distinctive illustration of three female vocalists (representing The Dreams) in matching flowing gowns with high slits, holding microphones against a deep purple background. The title 'DREAMGIRLS' is rendered in large, stylized gold lettering at the bottom, which appears to have a reflective or metallic finish. In the upper left corner, 'Original Broadway Cast Album' is printed in white sans-serif text. Regarding condition, the sleeve shows significant signs of wear and age-related distress. Visible damage includes heavy scuffing and white edge wear along the left spine and corners, several creases across the cardboard surface, and universal shelf wear. The color remains relatively vibrant, though the overall structural integrity of the outer jacket appears softened. This record captures the award-winning musical's original production, which was a landmark in 1980s American musical theater, featuring iconic performances by Jennifer Holliday, Sheryl Lee Ralph, and Loretta Devine.
