Hawks & Doves

1980 Reprise Records pressing of Neil Young’s Hawks & Doves, a single 33 1/3 RPM LP in the Winchester pressing variant, with matrix detail HS-1-2297-E7 #2 SJR ─◁ CBS,NYC and EDP logo noted in the runout. Produced by David Briggs, Neil Young, and Tim Mulligan, this copy presents the album in its stark original visual language: a deep blue front cover with a large white star and restrained red lettering, paired with a back cover of broad red and white horizontal bands.

The black vinyl carries custom Reprise labels, red on one side and blue on the other, each repeating the star motif at center. The package includes the original inner sleeve, visible beneath the record in the photos, with printed handwritten-style lyrics and credits around the margins.

Condition is graded Very Good Plus for the record and Very Good for the outer sleeve. The jacket shows light handling and edge wear consistent with age, while the front artwork remains bold and legible, with the patriotic star-and-stripe design still visually direct. A grounded collectible copy of Young’s compact 1980 album, bridging his late-1970s restlessness into the sparer, politically charged mood of the new decade.
