Hi, I started collecting vinyl Lp's and 45's in 1971, I have 20,000 + which I have moved now 4 times, and about to move again next year. So it's time to let at least half go. Most are in at least Excellent condition.  I can't listen to them all, so most will only have visual grading, any with a high start price, I will listen too, and play grade.

THE ROLLING STONES :- THEIR SATANIC MAJESTIES REQUEST. - UK 1967 1ST PRESS MONO.

A  PSYCHEDELIC  "ALL TIME CLASSIC" ALBUM.

1967 UK DECCA LABEL, Matrix Side 1 :- ARL 8126-T2-1K, Side 2 :- ARL 8127-P1. 

COVER:- VERY GOOD+.... Most would say better please look at the pictures, and read the description. 

VINYL:-  EXCELLENT.... 

RED INNER SLEEVE :-  ORIGINAL ALSO EXCELLENT.

This is The ROLLING STONES Sixth Studio Album.... Their Satanic Majesties Request......This MONO Original 1967 Press is now so Rare, Making this one of the rarest STONES albums of all time, The Rolling Stones 3D cover featured the band members looking at each other, but when tilted you can see the faces of the four Beatles. There's not many of these about now in this condition, not forgetting in 1965 most people didn't have good Stereo equipment so most records were ruined by being played on dancette type of gramophone. With heavy playing arms that often damaged the vinyl. A true STONES Classic!  You would be hard pushed to see a better vinyl records they look hardly played. I don't need to tell you how many Lp's got scratched and ruined by heavy weighted arms and metal needles.  This is the SUPERIOR 1st PRESS version... So hard to find in any playable condition, as they have been squirreled away in collections or worse thrown away, Nearly all copies that turn up have terribly worn Covers, mostly with the owners name written on them. I believe that there are very few better Condition Stones albums, you would be hard pushed to find better.   

The sleeve is laminated to the front not on the back, without any Major creasing, NO WRITING OR MARKS. Mega Rare true Stones classic.

RECORD LABEL:-  Decca Records

YEAR OF ORIGINAL RELEASE/ COUNTRY OF MANUFACTURE:-  1967 UK

MODE/SPEED: MONO - 33RPM

CAT NUMBER:   TXL 103

VINYL AUDIO:    :-  EXCELLENT : - Plays amazingly  well No Jumps, No Clicks, just some small crackle, more noticeably at the start of both sides.  

VINYL VISUAL:  VERY GOOD + : - The Records very few plays, No Marks, No Deep Scratches, The vinyl is bright and has a shine No Major damage, their are a few little needle marks here and there under a strong light. 

SLEEVE:   VERY GOOD Look at the photo's... The wonderful original 3D picture 1st press Robert Stace sleeve is clean, it's 55 years young! The laminated cover is remarkable consider it's age, With a crease on the laminated front cover most there from new, as I bought this second hand in the 1970's. Please look at the photo's, the cover is prone to wear due to the it's age. Near Perfect Spine. I try to give it all, A Sharp opening edge, please  (see photo's) still the back somehow it has survived without picking up any staining, so prone on 60's albums. Now so rare in this condition as they were not cheap at the time at over a pound and  the average wage being £35 at the time. Most copies were played to death. This Sleeve is still in amazing NEAR MINT condition.

INNER SLEEVE:   EXCELLENT. Original all RED paper type, ... No tear through, writing, or damage, being the very fragile inner sleeves are a great indicator of the amount of usage the album has had. I would say the inner is the best you could find! and considering how fragile these are.....it's now 55 years old, quite unbelievable intact condition.  

LABELS:   The Light Blue Decca Labels are clean. With the original  "FFRR UN BOXED DECCA" has only very light spindle marks, no damage or writing.    

GRADING SYSTEM: In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition of second-hand records, I have added a (+) or (-) to my gradings where applicable.

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. 
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. 
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump.
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
