On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by Genesis called "From Genesis To Revelation" and is an ORIGINAL 1969 UK MONO 1st Pressing on the 1st Press UNBOXED Decca label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  THIS WAS GENESIS'S FIRST & RAREST LP EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  BACK IN 1969 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED - IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS (ONLY 150 COPIES IN MONO!), AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!!  AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!!  PLEASE ALSO NOTE - THAT EVERY SINGLE PART OF THIS LP IS COMPLETELY ORIGINAL TO THE VERY 'DAY OF RELEASE' BACK IN 1969 - WITH NO PARTS 'SWOPPED'!!!!  AND IT IS ALSO QUITE LITERALLY - AND THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE!!!!  INCREDIBLY, THIS LP HAS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'MONO/STEREO' EYEHOLE ON THE REVERSE OF THE COVER (LATER ONES DONT!), 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS UNBOXED DECCA LABEL (LATER ONES ARE BOXED!), THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'LYRIC' INSERT WITH 'MONO & STEREO' PRINT AT THE BOTTOM (LATER ONES HAVE STEREO ONLY!), 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 1B/1B MONO MATRIX ENDINGS, AND AMAZINGLY THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1/B 1/B MOTHER & STAMPER CODINGS ASWELL (LATER ONES DONT!)!!!!  SO THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT AT ALL - THAT THIS IS THE 'EARLIEST' AND RAREST 1ST PRESSING OF THIS AMAZING LP THAT YOU CAN POSSIBLY GET!!!!

BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL IS THAT IT IS 1ST PRESSED IN MEGA RARE MONO!!!!  AND THIS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!!  WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED IN THE UK BACK IN 1969, NEARLY EVERY 1ST PRESSING WAS MADE IN COMMON STEREO - WITH VIRTUALLY NONE IN MEGA RARE MONO AT ALL!!!!  MOST SHOPS DIDNT EVEN STOCK MONOS BY THIS POINT - AND IT WAS ONLY AVAILABLE BY 'SPECIAL ORDER' ONLY!!!!  AND SALE FIGURES FOR THE TIME INDICATE THAT ONLY 150 MONO 1ST PRESSINGS WERE EVER SOLD - MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO EVER SEE ONE IN MONO!!!!  AS A RESULT, FINDING A 1ST PRESSING OF THIS INCREDIBLE LP IN MEGA RARE MONO IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE - AS BARELY ANY WERE EVER MADE (150 MONO 1ST PRESSINGS ONLY!)!!!!

NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THIS LP IS IN GREAT CONDITION OVERALL (WITH A BRILLIANT COVER & INSERT!) - AND HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1969 UK 'EARLIEST' MONO 1ST PRESSING ON 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS UNBOXED DECCA LABEL, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 1B/1B MONO MATRIX ENDINGS, 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESS 1/B 1/B MOTHER & STAMPER CODINGS, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS RED MONO INNER SLEEVE, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS MONO/STEREO 'LYRIC' INSERT, AND 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'ROBERT STACE' LAMINATED COVER (WITH 'MONO/STEREO' EYEHOLE ON THE COVER BACK!)!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Decca UK 1st Pressing from 1969 and is in GREAT condition overall!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is LK 4990 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press UNBOXED Decca label (see picture) and is a much MUCH rarer UK MONO 1st Pressing!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is still VERY presentable indeed - and although it isnt in PERFECT condition, it is still VERY bright & shiny and plays WELL!!!!  Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO nasty concentric marks (there are NO sticks and NO jumps on this LP!), only 3 or 4 visible lateral hairline type marks, only 2 or 3 scufflines (one of which is visible - but is completely NON sounding!), only 1 TINY mark, only a few VERY light hairlines, and only a 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 skips, a few light clicks in places, NO sticking, 2 or 3 pops (from the TINY mark), NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must MEGA STRICTLY grade Good++ (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - though MOST of the record is WAY better than this grading - and this record is still VERY bright & shiny looking indeed!!!!  And think very VERY carefully indeed before passing this AMAZING RARITY!!!!  ONLY 150 COPIES WERE EVER MADE IN MONO - AND THE CHANCES OF EVER FINDING ANOTHER ONE AGAIN ARE VIRTUALLY ZERO!!!!  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!!!!  The record comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press Red Mono inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  THE MEGA RARE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS MONO/STEREO 'LYRIC' INSERT IS IN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITION - WITH NO DAMAGE AT ALL!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Robert Stace' Laminated Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear (apart from a few TINY creases!), only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only a VERY few light creases elsewhere (cover is VERY flat looking!), shiny laminate, only 2 or 3 TINY laminate lifts along the spinal edge, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, only VERY slight rubbing (way WAY better than most!), NO sticker marks, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good+++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE (ESPECIALLY AS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE - IN MEGA RARE MONO!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!  


I supported with the description of a guy i bought this rare lp from couple of years ago. Everything was checked by me and only I can do is to confirm above information saying that gradig of the vinyl is really very conservative. 
Thanks for looking! Cheers!!!!!
