 "MADE IN GT BRITAIN" TEXT.

THE 1ST PRESSING RED PARLOPHONE LABELS ARE IN STUNNING CONDITION TO BOTH SIDES. WHEN CLOSELY INSPECTED UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT LABELS HAVE JUST VERY VERY LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS PRESENT. THE LABELS TO BOTH SIDES ARE BRIGHT, CLEAN AND FRESH AND ALL THE LETTERING IS PERFECT WITH NO RUBBING. LABELS RETAIN THEIR ORIGINAL VIBRANT DEEP RED COLOUR AND ARE OF COURSE FREE FROM ANY UNWANTED MARKS OR WRITING..... TRULY SUPERB.

THE GLOSSY VINYL IS ALSO SUPERB, THIS HAS BEEN PLAYED AND THEREFORE DOES DISPLAY SOME SURFACE MARKS, HOWEVER THESE REALLY ARE ONLY VISIBLE UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT. NONE ARE SEVERE OR FEELABLE. THE VINYL LIES PERFECTLY FLAT WITH NO DISHING OR WARPING.

AUDIO IS FABULOUS... THERE IS SOME VERY MILD CRACKLE TO RUN IN GROOVE BUT APART FROM THAT THE VINYL PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY WITH A STRONG AND CLEAR PERFORMANCE WITH NO INTERRUPTION. AUDIO IS CLEAR, STRONG AND A PLEASURE TO LISTEN TO.   

HOUSED IN ITS ORIGINAL AND CORRECT MUTILCOLURED "DIAMOND" SHAPED PARLOPHONE SLEEVE. THE SLEEVE IS COMPLETELY INTACT AND FREE FROM ANT WRITING. IT IS STILL QUITE CLEAN WITH SOME LIGHT AGE MARKS BUT ALL THE COLOURS ARE STILL BRIGHT AND FRESH.

OVERALL A TRULY STUNNING EXAMPLE OF THIS VERY EARLY 1ST UK PRESSING, WHICH OFFERS 1ST STAMPS, STUNNING LABELS AND VINYL, SUPERB AUDIO AND IS HOSED IN ITS ORIGINAL 1ST ISSUE COMPANY SLEEVE.
