Description
WHO - MAGIC BUS / BUCKET T b/w RAEL PT. 1 & 2 PORTUGAL POLYDOR 60582 MINT- PICTURE SLEEVE VG+ VINYL
ISSUED IN 1968 THIS WAS THE SECOND TO FINAL WHO EP TO BE RELEASED IN PORTUGAL. THE BIZARRITY OF INCLUDING RAEL, SPLIT INTO TWO SECTIONS, CRACKS ME UP TO THIS DAY! THE DISC IS IN VERY AGREEABLE VG+ CONDITION, CLEAN BRIGHT & GLOSSY, WITH ONLY MINOR HAIRLINES EVIDENT, AND ONE SCUFF VISIBLE, THOUGH NON-SOUNDING, ON PT. 1 OF RAEL.
WHAT'S TRULY REMARKABLE ABOUT THIS COPY IS THE NEAR MINT CONDITION OF THE SLEEVE. AS COLLECTORS FAMILIAR WITH PORTUGESE RELEASES ARE ONLY TOO AWARE, FINDING A COPY THAT HAS NOT BEEN DEFACED WITH INNUMERABLE ILLEGIBLE SCRAWLS, COMMENTS, SIGNATURES, CARTOONS ETC... CAN BE A DAUNTING TASK. AT TIMES I'VE EVEN SPECULATED THAT THE PRESSING PLANTS MAY HAVE EMPLOYED TEAMS OF EMPLOYEES TO RANDOMLY DEFACE EVERY COPY LEAVING THE FACTORY...
BUT SOMEHOW THIS ONE ESCAPED THOSE DEPREDATIONS. IT IS IN SUPERB CONDITION, WITH THE FRONT BEING ESSENTIALLY PERFECT, AND THE REAR EXHIBITING ONLY A MINOR BIT OF DISCOLORATION, WHICH IS HAPPILY MUCH LESS EVIDENT WHEN VIEWED IN PERSON THAN IT MAY APPEAR ON THE SCAN ACCOMPANYING THIS AUCTION. IT'S QUITE CLEAN WHEN VIEWED UP CLOSE. THE FLAPS ARE 100% CLEAN & INTACT. THIS IS TRULY AN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION COPY OF AN EXTREMELY SCARCE WHO RELEASE.
