$

110

Artist:  PARLIAMENT

Title:  OSMIUM

Label:  Invictus ST 7302  Stereo

Record condition:  VG+. A few surface marks. Should be a great player.

Cover condition:  VG+. Writing on front cover in black (radio station call letters and sate of receipt at the station - 12/1/70). Light edge wear, small mark on track listing on rear cover next to "Funky Woman".  Punch hole in cover (promo ). A clean and solid cover with good seams.

Notes:  Original classic Parliament funk album on Invictus, a first pressing dated by station as 12/1/70.  Made in USA.  George Clinton and Funkadelic.

We have never seen a white label copy of this Invictus record , but we can reasonably assume that the large oversized punch hole on the cover (consistent with real promos, not a cut out notch or bb sized hole) and the fact that this came from a radio station library indicates that this is a promo copy and true first pressing,.

RECORD GRADING: 

·         SS    Still sealed. A new and unplayed, unopened record.

·         M     Mint minus.  Clean and bright, no obvious signs of wear, probably played once or twice.

·         VG+   Very good plus. Close to like new with only superficial signs of use which will not affect play. A well cared for record that will satisfy most collectors.

·         VG    Very good.  A used but reasonable copy. There will be some signs of wear and possibly light noise during quiet passages, otherwise a nice and acceptable playing copy.

·         VG-   Very good minus.  A used copy with significant wear, marks and likely to have surface noise.

·         G+    Good plus.  Not a particularly nice copy, however a playable record. We do not like to sell any record in G+ condition unless it is a true rarity and when any copy in playable condition might be desirable.
