MICHAEL CHAPMAN
RAINMAKER HARVEST UK 1969 1ST PRESS WITH LABEL PRINTING ERROR OR TRANSITIONAL (UNDOCUMENTED) PRESSING. MATRIX SHVL 755 A-2G / SHVL 755 B-1G (G/R STAMPERS)
VERY RARE COPY OF MICHAEL CHAPMAN'S RAINMAKER. THE 1ST PRESS LABELS ALSO HAD 'SOLD IN THE UK' LABEL TEXT ADDED AROUND WHERE THE NAME IS ON THE LABEL. THE 2ND PRESS THEN HAD THE EMI BOX ADDED TO THE LABEL. THIS HAS NEITHER. IT IS DEFINITELY PRE THE SECOND PRESSING AS THE MATRIX NUMBERS THEN CHANGE TO A-2 / B-2, UNCLEAR WHETHER THIS IS AN IN-BETWEEN PRESSING WHICH HAS ESCAPED DOCUMENTATION OR IS A 1ST PRESSING MINUS THE 'SOLD IN UK' TEXT.
THE VINYL ACROSS BOTH SIDES IS IN EX- CONDITION, THE VINYL RETAINS A GREAT SHINE AND PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY WITH NO SKIPS OR STICKS, THE LIGHTEST HINT OF SURFACE NOISE BETWEEN THE TRACKS BUT NOTHING THAT AFFECTS PLAY AT ALL, NO DEEP SCRATCHES, SOME VISUAL EVIDENCE OF PLAY AND HANDLING BUT NOTHING THAT AFFECTS PLAY OR SOUND QUALITY, GREAT SOUND.
THE ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS FULLY LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS EXCELLENT, STILL VERY CLEAN AND WHITE ACROSS BOTH COVERS, ONLY A COUPLE OF MINOR LAMINATE CREASES, NO WRITING OR AREAS OF DAMAGE AT ALL, NO TEARS OR SPLITS TO THE SLEEVE, THE SPINE TEXT IS FULLY READABLE AND THE SPINE IS GREAT, ONE MINOR CREASE ACROSS IT, THE INNER GATEFOLD IS EXCELLENT, NO WRITING, STAINS OR DAMAGE AT ALL, A FANTASTICALLY CLEAN AND SOLID SLEEVE.
ORIGINAL ADVERTISING HARVEST INNER SLEEVE.
BOTH LABELS ARE EXCELLENT WITH NO WRITING OR DAMAGE, MINIMAL VISIBLE SPINDLE MARKS.
