Vinyl:
VG(+)
HEAVYWEIGHT QUALITY 164g
It is the much RARER LOUD CUT version which was pulled shortly after it's release in 1965 and are now becoming increasingly difficult to find in any condition.
There are some light marks to the vinyl,but after giving her a gentle professional vaccuum clean & playing her all the way through I didn't find any jumps or skips-just RAW sound!
I barely even noticed any background noise throughout...A couple of very small marks create a bried revolutionary pop but they don't last long at all. Wonderful rich sound with GLORIOUSLY RAW sections. Lovely shine and weight.
FLAT as the day she was born.
SHE SOUNDS LOUD!

GLORIOUSLY RAW




Labels:
VG(+).
ANOTHER RAREITY: IT HAS THE EXTRA DOT IN THE STATEMENT:
"SOLD IN.U.K." to side 1.
Now you don't see that very often!
Nice and clear on both sides.
Light spindle marks, visible when angled towards the light, so nothing bad at all.
I noticed a faint 'F' in pencil to one side-this could be removed if you wanted to.
Just minimal and light central hole wear.

Cover:
VG.
*MUCH RARER ERNEST J DAY COVER*
These covers were made to keep up with demand and were made at a rough ratio of one for every 10 Garrod & Lofthouse covers.
Lovely shiny front cover...
VERY strong and clear and clean spine.
Strong corners, with some light rubbin and the bottom left has a small 1cm split near the opening. There is also a small 1cm tear to the centre, near the opening...but really nothing terrible at all
Ernest J.Day & Co. flipbacks in SOLID & CLEAN condition.
I can see some light lines of spidering to the front laminate, near the opening. With some small fingers of spidering eminating from the seams.
Wonderful solid example-with some foxing to the back white card, due to age-but don't we all?!?
NO WRITING



Inner:
EX.
It is the all ORIGINAL "USE EMITEX" with the tracing paper lining...in great shape too.
NO SPLITS
NO WRITING
There is a small, insignificant little tear of less than 1cm to one side.
Just  few small foxing spots...



ALL IN ALL, A RARE ALBUM IN VERY GOOD CONDITION THROUGHOUT!
VERY, VERY RARE TO FIND THIS ALBUM IN SUCH SOLID ALL-ROUND CONDITION...EVEN THOUGH VISIBLY LIGHTLY MARKED, SHE DOESN'T JUMP OR SKIP AND THE SOUND REPRODUCTION REMAINS SOLID THROUGHOUT.
GRAB THIS LITTLE BEAUTY WITH BOTH HANDS!

!!ALL TOGETHER WITH THE E J DAY COVER, ORIGINAL EMITEX INNER AND WITH EXTRA DOT MISPRESSING!!
