Description
SYD BARRETT - 'THE MADCAP LAUGHS'
A rare opportunity to acquire a MINT/STILL SEALED UK 1st pressing of Syd's debut solo album.
This copy dates from initial January 1970 release on the Harvest label: SHVL 765
This copy was originally exported for sale in the U.S.A. and the fully laminated 'Garrod & Lofthouse' printed gatefold is still sealed within its original loose shrinkwrapping, which also retains its original 'British Import' sticker.
Although the LP is still sealed, I have made a controlled 5-inch opening to the opening edge which allowed me to look inside and see the poly-lined Harvest advertising inner-sleeve and the discs' label; green & white Harvest crucially WITHOUT the boxed EMI logo.
CONDITION
Disc: MINT
Cover: NEAR MINT
As good as you will ever hope to find. The loose shrink has not distorted the cover in any way and there is a just a small bump to the upper left corner reminding us that this is 43 years old!
Apart from the small controlled opening I made to the front edge, the shrink is fully intact all-round.
You won't find another like this.
