$

5,000

This is obviously the RAREST ROLLING STONES Album ever to be offered for sale, anywhere, any time. Most possibly a One of a Kind Collector's Item! Therefore, we will include a letter of Provenance and Authenticity-see last photo. Offered here is THE ROLLING STONES Rare GRAFITTI Cover of BEGGARS BANQUET 1968 1st UK Pressing DECCA SKL.4955, Matrix Side 1 XZAL-8476-1K; Side 2 XZAL-8477-3K. You will receive all in above photos! The Vinyl LP 1st UK Pressing, The Grafitti LP Cover, the original paper/plastic interior sleeve, and the letter of Provenance and Authenticity. We checked the American Records current Price Guide, and the slick alone is valued at $10,000.00. The Original, and only owner, is a London UK to Hollywood CA transplant and former APPLE RECORDS ART DESIGNER KOSH. Please feel free to GOOGLE him for more information. As the story goes, when Kosh was working in New York for ABKCO (The Rolling Stones US Label) the LP with the Grafitti Cover was a parting gift. KOSH will send a letter of Provenance and Authenticity, on his letterhead (see last photo), personalized to the winner, or the one above, not personalized. CONDITION: The condition of the vinyl with a visual inspection is Near Mint/Mint, or better. The cover sleeve is in Very Good Condition. However Note: the slick is coming slightly unglued at a few places-see photo #3.  Also, the original paper/plastic protective sleeve is included. Still, one of the finest examples of this LP offered for sale on the internet. Not to mention, the only one with this cover. Shipping note: We remove album from sleeve, and place in a separate plastic sleeve, so the album cover is not dinged during shipping. Plus, we use standard LP mailing boxes, with extra interior bubble wrap to prevent movement or damage during shipment. SPECIAL Note to International and USA Bidders: The price below includes Registered and Insured Mail. That means it is locked in a Safe, all Postal employees, and recipient must sign for it.
