Description

Yes, here it is!
A test pressing of the single slated for The Smiths second release, withdrawn due to press controversy.
Features the Troy Tate production of Reel Around The Fountain c/w Jeane
The rarest of Smiths collectables? Only 25 pressed although some sources say there may be less than that.
This rarely comes to the market and here is an opportunity to bid on one that I would describe as being in excellent conditionhaving read through a number of grading systems. It has scarcely been played and has been locked away in my collection for many years. I would have described it as near mint (mint being new and unplayed) other than a small scuff mark on the 'Reel' sidewhich is completely inaudible. The second photo is the best I can do to show this, this also shows the release number RT 136. 
Possibly the most desirable addition for a Smiths collector and a gem in any record collection!
I will despatch by whichever method you would like at cost, I am not looking to make money on the P&P
Any queries just ask.
