The labels.
The original labels are graded as new condition features the swirl on side a. and the swirl logo and track listings on side b.(only early press)!!!!! All rights.... are featured around the label rim(only early press)!!!!!!! I can hardly see any spidering in fact very minimal amount can be seen in strong light and hardly any spindle ware which indicates that this has hardly been played very (very) rare for an album that is 38 years old!!!!!
The vinyl.
The vinyl is absolutely superbe on initial visual inspection this looks like new and still retains its sheen from new!!!!!! (please note this vinyl has (not) been over played and indeed hardly played at all !!!! nor are there any signs of grooveware or distortion!!!! i have played this through track for track and the audio quality is superbe cristal clear and extreemely vibrant!!!! Visually there are very (very) few surface marks\scuffs infact i can barely see two or three (no)scratches when held in very strong light(no) needle scratches audio sounding at least i couldn't see any even in extreeme light, at least (none) that effect the audio at all!!! I have played this track through a couple of times and i never heard any problems.The audio on this pressing in my opinion is as good as it gets for a very 1st pressing!!!!!Even in between tracks there is extreemely minimal noise!!! This almost plays as new!!!This is up there with one of the best audio that i have heard of this pressing!!!!! I would class myself as highly critical and this is a truly exceptional sounding vinyl and the 1st by this awesome band ''black sabbath''!!!!!!!! Please check my completed listings of records that i have sold of this calaber and you will see that i normally get it right!!!
Please note! That i always make this disclaimer! That although I never heard any clicks or pops during the play of this record please allow for the odd static crackle\tick here and there certainly not consistant throughout the audio,Please remember this is a genuine 37 year old vinyl that would have been played on a 37 year old system!!!!!The cover.
This is the original gatefold (non) laminated cover with black on the inside opening (only early 1st press later were white) which also has the lyric and track contents in the cross!!!! Please note!! the misspelling of ''Ossie Osbourne''!!! ''Osborne'' very rare (only early press) this cover is superbe very near pristine with only very (very) light rubbing which can only be seen if looked for in extreeme light!!can hardly be seen unless you look for them this shows very (very) minimal storage ware hardly any to the corners and spine (see photo) superbe condition of this 1st pressing cover which is nearly 37 years old!!!!!!!! Top! condition to be seen of this pressing truly awesome(see photo)
