This is the ORIGINAL UK 1956 HMV MONO 1st Pressing on the 1st Press HMV Gold label and the Cat No is 45-POP 305.
The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear, and only a VERY few light spindle marks!!!! The record is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! Most of these 50s singles had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This record is NOT and has NO scratches, only 1 absolutely TINY hairline type mark, only 1 absolutely TINY scuffline, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is GREAT to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, only a very VERY few virtually INAUDIBLE clicks right at the VERY end of 'Lets Play House' (believe me these are as light as it is possible to get!), NO jumps, NO sticks, and only some ULTRA low level touches of background crackle in places (unavoidable on these really early 1950s pressings!)!!!! This single must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! This record comes with an ORIGINAL HMV Repro Company Sleeve (which is naturally identical to the original) which is in SUPERB condition!!!! THIS SINGLE IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!
