Brief description of item

Ok Iron maiden fans. Your looking at the first L.P. The band ever released via "Sanctuary" & EMI. This has the matching A1 & B1 earliest set of stampers. A heavy rock benchmark in history. In this condition a highly collectable item.

The actual record has hardly been played. And has no damage. No warping & sits 100% flat on any surface. The cover is free from any dust, damp, or smoke damage. no ripping or tearing, no handwritten names, or splitting to the spine at the side. All text anywhere is perfectly legible. The labels are on side 1, has no spindle wear, the side 2 label has very minimal spindle wear only visable under bright light. Inner is the plain black with poly lined inner bag protection still intact. Very low start to give anyone interested a good and fair chance to grab it up!!! Cheers & good luck.

Please see the other records. Some fantastic vinyl this listing.

All vinyl comes from a smoke, damp and pet free environment

Mint (M) The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condiition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent (EX) The record shows 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 displayes 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 notceably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc

Fair (F) The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

Poor (P) The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing Bad (B) The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler

CD's and CASSETTES As a general rule CD's and Cassettes either play perfectly - inwhich case they are in Mint condition - or they don't, in which case their value is minimal. Cassette tape is liable to deteriorate with age, even if it remains unplayed, so care should be taken when buying old tapes. CD's are difficult to grade visually; they can look perfect but actually be faulty, while in other cases they may appear damaged but still play perfectly. Cassette and CD inlays and booklets should be graded in the same way as record covers and sleeves. In general, the plastic containers for cassettes and CDs can easily be replaces if they are broken or scratched, but card covers and digipaks are subject to the same wear as record sleeves
