SLADE SEALED WHITE LABEL PROMO 1972 POLYDOR “SLAYED?” HYPE MINT RARE

Description:

ULTRA RARE SEALED PROMO COPY

Up for sale is a true collector’s gem — an original 1972 U.S. promotional pressing of Slayed? by Slade (Polydor PD 5524). This copy is factory sealed in its original shrink wrap and still carries the original “PROMOTION COPY – NOT FOR SALE” sticker on the front cover.

Promotional copies were pressed in very limited numbers and almost always opened by radio stations and reviewers. To find one still sealed after 50+ years is almost unheard of — making this an investment-grade piece for both Slade collectors and sealed/promo vinyl collectors.

✨ Why This Copy Stands Out

   •   ✅ Still Factory Sealed – untouched since 1972

   •   ✅ Promo Edition – ultra-scarce, made for industry only

   •   ✅ Stickered Shrink – authentic provenance, high collector demand

   •   ✅ Classic Slade Album – includes “Mama Weer All Crazee Now” and “Gudbuy T’Jane”

⸻

Collector Value

   •   Standard U.S. copies: $20–50

   •   Promo copies opened: $75–125

   •   Sealed stock copies: $125–175

   •   This sealed promo copy: expected collector value $300–500+, with potential higher bids from dedicated collectors.

International Buyers Welcome!

eBay now routes all international orders through its U.S. processing center in Illinois, which occasionally restricts certain collectible or sealed vintage vinyl titles from shipping to specific countries (most often Germany, France, and Italy) due to customs import policies on sealed media.

If you are located outside the U.S. and receive a message that shipping is unavailable, please contact me directly — I can safely and securely ship worldwide via USPS Priority International or Asendia, fully tracked and insured.

All records are packed professionally in Whiplash-style mailers, reinforced with corner protection and outer sleeves.

Collector Notes

Sealed U.S. white-label promos of Slayed? are extraordinarily scarce — most were opened for radio airplay in 1972. This is a true museum-grade survivor and likely one of the few sealed examples remaining.

Ideal for advanced collectors of glam rock, Polydor promos, or early ’70s UK artists marketed to the U.S. audience.
