Description

Here is a 'timewarp' UK first pressing of Aladdin and his Wonderful Lamp by Cliff Richard and The Shadows on the blue and black Columbia label from 1964
The front-laminated flipback gatefold cover with factory-pinched spine ends remains in remarkable EX+ condition with no unwanted writing, no rips or sticker damage - I doubt you will see a better example. This gatefold is of similar construction to The Kinks' Village Green Preservation Society with a vulnerable single card front flap which consequently seldom turns up in such well preserved(!) condition. It is almost as though this copy has come straight off the shop shelf!

The disc is in comfortable EX condition, having been barely played over the years. Both blue and black Columbia labels are in lovely unmarked condition with no writing or sticker damage and barely any indication of use; there is little sign of any spindle marks and certainly no wear around the spindle hole, denoting hardly any play over the years. Both sides of the vinyl retain their original sheen and show only the lightest of surface marks visible when examined under strong halogen lighting.
The disc is housed in its original 'Use Emitex ...' inner sleeve.
Good luck if you are bidding - I carefully pack vinyl using professional packaging and post with the disc removed from the sleeve to prevent knifing during transit.
