THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER HAS THE DIE CUT HOLE FOR MONO/STEREO INNERS TO SHOW THROUGH AT THE BACK WHICH WAS NOT ON LATER REPRINTS AFTER 1970 WHEN THERE WERE ONLY STEREO LPs AFTER WHICH THE MONO VERSION WAS DELETED FOREVER!.PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS FOR THE TRACKS ON THIS LP PRESSED ON HIGH QUALITY,THICK,100% FLAT VINYL!  LOCATING A REALLY NICE ORIGINAL 1967 MONO EDITION IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN ON OLDER EQUIPMENT CAUSING MAJOR DISTORTION AND GENERAL WEAR. BY 1967 EVEN THE MOST BASIC NEWER MONO ONLY RECORD PLAYERS COULD SAFELY STEREO COPIES WITH THE DEMAND FOR MONO VERSIONS FAR LESS.INFACT SOMETIMES DEALERS WOULD ONLY OBTAIN THE MONO COPIES TO SPECIAL ORDER ONLY. THIS COPY HAS GLEAMING SURFACES WITH ONLY A FEW  ULTRA TINY,FAINT AND WISPY SURFACE MARKS AND HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE! NO LOUD CLICKS,STICKS OR JUMPS.  STRICTLY GRADED AS EXCELLENT CONDITION! HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR. CLEAN LABELS WITH NO STAINING,WRITING,RIPS OR DEFACEMENT!  THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER HAS SOME TINY EDGE CREASES AND A LITTLE FAINT STAINING BUT NO WRITING,NO RIPS OR REPAIRS AND STILL VERY PRESENTABLE INDEED.  PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! A LOW,REALISTIC £15 PRICE. MORE GREAT LPs FROM ME ON EBAY. PERSONAL COLLECTION FROM MY SHOP IN NORWICH IS WELCOME AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.LOOK AT MY FEEDBACK FOR SIMILAR RECORDS SOLD FOR TOTAL CONFIDENCE!

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
