No is SHVL 815 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Harvest label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing (there were NO Monos!)!!!!

The record labels are in AWESOME condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in absolutely SUPERB condition!!!!  Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 2 or 3 absolutely MEGA light hairline traces (only visible under light!), NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOKS SUPERB!!!!  It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some EXTREMELY low level background sound in places (though mostly NONE!)!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Excellent+ if not better!!!!  SUPERB RECORD!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Lyric' inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition (apart from some almost INVISIBLE 'touching in' to the edges!)!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Glossy Gatefold Cover is in GREAT condition!!!!  It has NO sticker tears, NO sticker marks, some evidence of 'touching in' to the edges & spine, NO edge splits, NO spine splits, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), barely ANY rubbing, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the inside of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, NO ringwear, barely ANY rubbing, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a very VERY decent cover indeed!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS (ESPECIALLY AS A 100% GENIUNE 'PRE-RELEASE' PROMOTIONAL COPY - WITH AN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING BARELY PLAYED RECORD!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
