Description

Original UK First Press  A2 B2 C1 D2 COC69100 12 postcards present 
Outer Sleeve:  VG+ A little wear and bumps to corners, very little creasing on chunky and not crushed sleeve.  Mild creasing inside the Unipak sleeve on inside of gatefold across grinning Mick All glue seams intact and still well stuck down.
Inner sleeves:  VG+ - minimal wear, one bumped corner, another with a tiny bump Seams intact - no splits and all well stuck down
Postcards: All 12 here in a strip, folded every 2 postcards as issued I believe Slight stain to postcard 12 and a similar tiny stain in postcard11, others perfect - see pics
Records: All sides have stamped matrix numbers, etched 'Rolling Stones Records', another etched number and etched artisan logo  Record 1 - A2 B2 VG to VG+ - some spindle marking, some surface marks, but nothing serious Plays through fine with some crackle between tracks and no pops 
Record 2 - C1 D2 VG to VG+ - some spindle marking, some surface marks and 1 pressing mark on 'Happy' - can be heard as a mild tic for 2 or 3 revolutions. It's a bit of stuff in the pressing rather than crud stuck on it Plays through fine with some crackle between tracks and no pops apart from above mentioned tic on happy
A very acceptable strong VG playing copy with postcards and a sleeve that isn't beat up like many are. Grading closer to conservative rather than optimistic - I know what it's like to receive an overgraded record in the post. 
Grading I use... Mint: Sealed. Mint records don't really exist as far as I've seen. I've even had scratched sealed records from rubbing on the inner  Mint -: Absolutely minimal evidence of play, no spindle marks but you can see it's left the inner and outer sleeve Ex: Been played a very few times but hasn't suffered for it at all other than the odd removal mark, slight spindle trace and maybe a very mild scuff VG+: Enjoyed a bit more, but still very enjoyable, minimal crackle VG: Enjoyed quite a lot and bears evidence of it through surface marks and spindle marks, plays with some crackle between tracks and  with may have one or two tics but no feelable stratches and no pops Anything else: Rough, avoid
Will include poly lined inners
