THE VINYL   NEAR MINT-    INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the  A//2 B//1  With the original first edition labels- Stored from new this LP remains in pristine  condition.

ARCHIVED FROM NEW WITH BARELY ANY PLAY AT ALL

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age.

There are a few light whispy lines, and a couple of little hairlines that do not sound -and thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid out the vinyl.

a couple of tiny spider lines around the centre hole-

IT REMAINS IN SUPERB PLAY CONDITION. There is some dust on the vinyl where it has stood for so long untouched!

On playing through we heard nothing in the dead grooves bar the tiniest of static in the dead grooves...the odd dust pop that probably will not sound next time..

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

 

THE LABELS   NEAR MINT  FLAT MATT LABELS

 

THE SLEEVE     NEAR MINT 

Correct  first UK issued earliest MATT  GATEFOLD sleeve  -with the WIDE spine.

Printed by  -   ROBERT STACE

 This is in superb condition, quite amazing how it has survived so clean.. Most copies have bad white rubbing on the edges..but not this one

The edges are all super clean with virtually no traces of rub of any note, at all , and all colours and inks remain in outstanding condition

THE  INKS ARE MAGNIFICENT..

No powdery white ringwear - & the lightest ring press on the back, and all edges are super crisp.

The tiniest of tip rub , &  just a couple of tiny spider lines over the edge of the spine and seam edge.

The spine edge is totally unmarked with no wear, or damage.

the open out of the gatefold is astonishing. We cannot add any more than this! ITS A BEAUTY! 

OVERALL..A REAL BEAUTY!
