PORKY and PECKO engraved in the run-out grooves!!
VO Price Code on sleeve.
This is a very rare FIRST PRESS of this classic fourth Sabbath album. It comes complete with the inner booklet and inner swirl sleeve!!!
Vinyl: EX++ condition. Only two minute wispy hairlines can be detected on side A, and these are very small indeed,hard to spot.These do not affect the replay. Side B is UNMARKED!!! The vinyl has a beautiful glossy lustre as, and it seems it had hardly any play at all!!
I have played this in FULL> The replay is ASTOUNDING!!! SO much better than any subsequent re-issue, straight from the mother stampers. A beautiful FULL sound!!! There are not any jumps or skips. There is hardly ever any background noise at all (only a little static between tracks)!! I played this on my Technics turntable with a Linn cartridge and through my very revealing B&W three way speakers!!! It really did deliver and I thoroughly enjoyed the Sabs on their experimental more progressive journey.
The gatefold sleeve is matt . It has the inner picture booklet still attached. The inner sleeve and booklet are MINT!!! NO creases!!! Small edge "bumps", very minor, hardly noticeable. No writing and No marks. NO ringwear. Spine is fully legible. Small price sticker glue residue, which probably can be removed (right top corner). The opening is still very crisp.
A very well kept copy.
Comes in the original SWIRL inner sleeve. (Has a tiny 1" side split).
This an excellent investment opportunity!!!
Labels are NM.
If auction reaches over £50.00 I will send this by Special Delivery at a cost of £5.00 in the U.K.
Europe and woldwide will in that case be by Signed For service. Please wait for my invoice.
