UKs VERY 1st PRESS ON FAMOUS VERTIGO SWIRL
The First Press sleeve made and printed in England is in Excellent++ condition,having retained its full box shape and full gloss colours,NO tears,writing or defacement anyware, corners are all solid, has top and bottom opening flaps intact with minimal wear to top opener. This is a joy to look at. Very Rare to find in this state, hard to find any better.....

Also included is the VERY RARE POSTER these were only ever present in the very first issues of this holy grail of albums by BLACK SABBATH, and this is the very one, the poster is in original condition, with beautiful colours and no unwanted creases,or tape marks. Does have a few small drawing pin holes, but these are hardly noticable. (please see photos) An easy Excellent++.
The vinyl is thick and chunky also in Excellent++ condition,having it's original great sheen, just one superficial mark on side one track two(this is about 1/2 cm long and a hairline wide,that is it )cannot be heard,this was present when bought, there are no scratche. ,I have played this,and it sounds great.no skips or jumps.It has only ever been played a couple of times.Has always been well looked after(please see photos). The sound that ouzes out this vinyl is incredible, bass tones and all frequencies sound beautifull and sharp,with NO distortion, needs to be heard to beleive, must be hard to locate a better one.Very Collectable indeed,a great investment....
The labels are as new having no marking,pen or spindle marks.

records are graded in accordance with Record Collector's Grading System as follows;
EXCELLENT (EX): The recordows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc
