Description
Early copy of the first issue of this emblematic record in pristine condition! The record itself is in excellent condition – no scratches, no scuff marks and virtually no surface noise. The cover and inner sleeve too are excellent, almost as new.
Label: Harvest SHVL 777
Matrix side A: SHVL 777 A -1
Matrix side B: SHVL 777 B -1
This record has been in my possession since it was issued in 1969. For the last 20 years it has lain undisturbed in a plastic box. Now I am selling off my collection. All records will be posted, enclosed in a polythene sleeve inside a strong cardboard mailer.
Like many other sellers, I have graded records in accordance with The UK's Rare Record Price Guide (RRPG), summarised as follows:
Mint: Record in brand new condition. The cover and any extra items are in perfect condition.
Excellent: Record shows some signs of being played, with very little reduction in sound quality. The cover can have slight wear or creasing.
Very Good: The record has been played many times, but with no reduction in sound quality despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover without major defects.
Good: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has deteriorated, with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover shows signs of folding, scuffing of edges, spine plits and discolouration.
Fair: The record is just playable, has considerable surface noise and may even jump. The cover is torn, stained or defaced.
