THE VINYL   EX+ STRONG   INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the  EARLIEST 1st A1 B1 HEAVYWEIGHT PRESSING- Stored from new this LP remains in pristine condition everywhere.

THIS IS EASILY THE BEST COPY WE HAVE EVER SEEN..IT PLAYS & LOOKS STUNNING.

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age.

THIS COPY HAS BEEN ARCHIVED SINCE 1980 AND REMAINS AS CLOSE TO MINT PLAY AS WE HAVE EVER HEARD

There are  afew light whisp lines, a couple of tiny feint hairlines on the vinyl and thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..

IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION. NO MARKS, OR WEAR AT ALL

SURPLUS WAX AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE!!!

A COUPLE OF SKATES LINE THAT WE CAN SEE!!!

On playing through we heard some very light static in the dead grooves..no unweanted noises, and when the first track kicks in it is 'sonic boom central'..a stunning listen!

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

THE LABELS   MINT  FLAT MATT LABELS

THE SLEEVE     MINT-

Correct  first UK issued earliest sleeve  -with the EMBOSSED LOGO AND LETTERING. FLAT MATT FINISH not a later glossy finish and printed letters..only the first press sleeve had the logo embossed and the thin white line around the edges of the letters. (some sleeves have no white line, but they are all the same first press)

Printed by  -   UNCREDITED

THIS IS THE EARLIEST ORIGINAL 1980 SLEEVE.

 This is in simply incredible condition, quite amazing how it has survived so clean.We all know that this black sleeve is so hard to find without rub, white marks and geral wear and tear..so seeing this was a real special moment

IT IS WITHOUT QUESTION THE CLEANEST SLEEVE YOU COULD EVER HOPE TO SEE - AND THE ONLY ONES THIS GOOD ARE THE GLOSSY LATE MID 80s COPIES (and even those are becoming impossible to find)

THIS HAS TO BE THE ULTIMATE AC/DC BACK IN BLACK OUT THERE!

The edges are all super clean with just some tiny spots/traces of rub, at all , and all colours and inks remain in outstanding condition

No powdery white ringwear - OR ring press, and all edges are super crisp.

NO tip rub of any note or corner dinks

&  and just a few spider lines over the edge of the spine - one is a small 'pinch' spider line.

The spine edge is totally unmarked with no wear-..quite astonishing.

The open edge remains in immaculate sharp condition -superb.

We cannot add any more than this! ITS A BEAUTY!  EASILY THE BEST COPY OF THIS IMMORTAL LP WE HAVE EVER AUCTIONED..DO NOT MISS THIS.

-  THESE COPIES ARE SO RARE!

THE INNER SLEEVE   MINT 

PAT PRINTED  BLACK THICK PAPER ORIGINAL -NO SPLITS, WEAR OR SCISSORING!!!
