JOY DIVISION......UNKNOWN PLEASURES RARE ORIGINAL UK PRESSING BLACK VINYL L.P. ON CAT. NO. FACT 10 FROM 1979.
FOR FURTHER DETAILS SEE: www.joydiv.org/up.htm.
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
THE RUN OUT GROOVE MATRIX NOS./INFO ARE AS FOLLOWS:
OUTSIDE: 'A PORKY PRIME CUT', W2, FACT-10-OUTSIDE 1 B, 'THIS IS THE WAY'.
INSIDE: 'S-2 1 FACT 10 - INSIDE 1 A, 'A PORKY PRIME CUT', 'STEP'.
THE ILLUSTRATED INNER SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. A COUPLE OF VERY VERY MINOR SMALL CREASES, SOMETHING AND NOTHING AND HARDLY NOTICEABLE UNLESS TILTED TOWARDS THE LIGHT. THIS RELEASE HAS THE ROUND CORNERS, I BELIEVE LATER COPIES MAY HAVE HAD SQUARE CORNERS BUT I AM NOT SURE. NO BIG CREASES, NO TEARS, NO MARKS, NO SEAM SPLITS, NO RINGWEAR.
THE ORIGINAL TEXTURED OUTER SLEEVE IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. ON THE REVERSE IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT HAND CORNER ARE THE WORDS: 'PRINTED AND MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE LTD'. NO CREASES, NO MARKS, NO TEARS, NO SEAM SPLITS, NO RINGWEAR.
SUPERB CONDITION FOR A CLASSIC LP WHICH IS 31 YEARS OLD.
