THE VINYL   MINT  INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the highly prized earliest  pressing - Stored from new this LP has seen TWO plays, and remains in pristine condition everywhere.

OLD SHOP STOCK- THE BEST COPY WE HAVE SEEN FOR YEARS!

This first 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. The edges are silky smooth, & so rarely do we see a copy with the -1-1 stampers..the earliest possible press!!!

THE WHOLE VINYL IS SIMPLY INCREDIBLE -

There are a few TINY whisp lines, where the vinyl has slid from the thick card inner- not through any play!

Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION.

On playing through we heard NO static..no jumps skips or distortion. IT IS LIKE NEW!

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

 

THE LABELS   MINT  FLAT MATT LABELS

 

THE SLEEVE     EX+ STRONG

Correct TEXTURED first UK issued earliest sleeve  - With the LYRIC INNER

Printer credits: NO CREDIT

 This is in super condition, quite amazing how it has survived so clean. 

The edges are all super clean with NO tip rub, at all , and all colours and inks remain in outstanding condition - the texturing glossy like the day it was printed.

Some very light ring press.

No powdery white ringwear -  and all edges are super crisp.

There are no spider lines on the spine edge or seams.

The open edge remains in immaculate sharp as new condition, one tiny little feather spot

 The spine edge is unmarked with no squash of any note

We cannot add any more than this! ITS A BEAUTY!

1st lyric THIN card original - no wear marks or handling!
