THE POLICE DON'T STAND SO CLOSE TO ME / DE DO DO DO DE DA DA DA
US 12" PR 0441 A&M Records Prototype Picture Disc Test Pressing Unplayed / Mint (25 Copies Only - But most destroyed)
You are bidding on the extremely rare, and one of only a handful of surviving copies of The Police prototype picture disc that A&M Records had comissioned, but was never manufactured commercially, as was scrapped in favour of the 10" Sherrif badge picture disc which was released by the label commercially in early 1981. This has never been played and is in glossy mint condition, which is rare as most prototypes are usually tested reguarly. This is a beautiful unplayed copy.
I am selling this record for personal reasons, so I hope it goes to another serious collector. The disc is unplayed and comes in a pvc picture disc sleeve. This is one of the 3 rarest Police records in the world. According to the ex-A&M Records Vice President, only a handful were made. This is the 3rd copy I have seen in 31 years. The matrix number has the same catalogue number as the commercial release.
This is a once in a life time oppotunity to purchase this ultra rare Police withdrawn picture disc. It's absolutely stunning.
I have 100% positive feedback which I take pride in and all m:y items are genuine and authentic.
Any questions feel free to ask.
Please note: I will only post out with Special Delivery which has to be signed for at your end, due to the rarity of this item. You will also be able to track it on line, as I will supply you with the tracking number. That way it covers both you and me. I have posted items this way for the last 15 years, and have not had a single issue. So this is essential with selling rare items.
Good luck
Anouther copy of this was sold today on ebay for $7100.00 dollars. This will probably be the last time you will ever be able to buy this record, so just as a warning, this could be your last chance ever to obtain this prototype. So best of luck to whoever wins this one. CB
