Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon" 1st UK Press Vinyl LP
Description:
Embark on a rare auditory journey with this 1st UK Press of Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" and experience the studio masterpiece in its original form. The A2/B2 matrix confirms its 1st press status, ensuring an authentic listen. The vinyl, graded Excellent (EX+), being very well cared for with glossy finish and no marks provides a fine example of this album. This set includes all extras in Near Mint (EX+) condition, from both posters and both stickers to the black lined inner and original blue tint sleeve. This really is a fine piece.

- Matrix: Side 1: SHVL 804 A2; Side 2: SHVL 804 B2 (1st Press Identifier)
- Stampers: 5 GDT / 1 LA (1st Mother)
- Label design: Solid Blue Triangle (1st Press Identifier)

Disc Visual Grade: EXCELLENT+
In good natural light the record exhibits a superb ‘factory-fresh’ gloss and immaculately clean appearance, devoid of any marks or blemishes. When scrutinised under focused halogen light, only a very small amount of short faint hairlines from sleeve removal become apparent on the surface. A superb visual example of a difficult record to find in such condition.
Audio Grade: EXCELLENT+
The playback is superb, there are quiet lead-ins to both sides including the long ‘heartbeat’ intro with minimal static in quiet passages. There is no factory skip on ‘Money’ as with some of the 1st pressings. Superb!
Sleeve Grade: EXCELLENT
The gatefold sleeve front retains its original deep print colour with only the faintest signs of storage. The back shows light ring wear. The spine is sharp, straight and unworn. There are no rips, splits, pen or stains throughout. Fantastic.
Inner: NEAR MINT
Posters Grade: Both NEAR MINT
Postcard Stickers: Both unused NEAR MINT
