Hi, my name is Brian and I have been collecting vinyl for many years.

I have many albums for sale, i collected lots of labels over the years such as DERAM, PEGASUS, VERTIGO SWIRL/SPIRAL, CHARISMA, HARVEST, PINK ISLAND, RCA NEON, DANDELION etc......

I am not and have never been a 'dealer' by profession, but I have always given honest descriptions and lots of clear photo's of any items I have sold. I do know how disappointing it is when you open that package and the item has been over sold with expressions such as "AWESOME" etc when the item is only in EX- condition or worse. If you are in anyway disappointed with an item from me you are most welcome to return it with a FULL REFUND, providing it is an honest and just mistake by myself as I believe in my descriptions.

PLEASE EMAIL FOR POSTAGE CHARGES, I WILL NOT POST INTERNATIONALLY UNLESS INSURED

SO HERE WE GO.......

For sale here is --BRIDGET ST JOHN--SONGS FOR THE GENTLE MAN-- UK ORIGINAL FIRST DANDELION  PRESSING WITH ORIGINAL FIRST PRINT SLEEVE

STEREO  DANDELION DAN 8007, RELEASED 1971              (VERTIGO SWIRL / SPIRAL RELEASE)?!?

SLEEVE.....GATEFOLD, LEATHER EFFECT TEXTURE INSIDE AND OUTand UN-LAMINATED. This is the very first printing of this sleeve. This one has survived very well. It is in GREAT condition showing VERY LITTLE wear and tear. The colours are very strong and vibrant . The bottom edge is EX with little wear. The top edges are in EX+ condition with only a tiny amount of wear and no splits. The front is EX+ with NO UNWANTED WRITING,  NO STICKERS  AND NO STAINING and NO RING WEAR, just evidence of light rubbing to a very small area paralel to the opening edge. There is light wear to all four corners. The back of the sleeve is also in EX+ condition with NO RING WEAR. The inner gatefold is in wonderful AS NEW condition with NO DAMAGE, very nice MINT. The spine has some light creasing and is fully readable although 1 or 2 of the letters are worn. All in all this is in SUPERB condition for a sleeve of some 38 years of age, EX(+).

LABELS.....There is no damage to either label. MINT/MINT.

VINYL....Both sides of this fantastic album still have a deep black shine. When you hold this album in the very brightest of lights you can see a few very faint surface hair lines which are caused by removal and replacement in and out of the inner sleeve, there is one obvious mark on side 2 that causes some clicks for about 1min on track 5 otherwise superb playback of a top quality recording.  Both sides play WITHOUT  JUMPS. I have played this album on my very sensitive and revealing LINN SONDEK and the sound is UN-WORN, it is full and crisp there is NO loss of listening pleasure at all, great stereo separation and sound stage.  There are dust crackles and the odd click that can be heard only in the quieter parts of the music or between tracks, but a professional clean could sort out some of that. This really is a lovely copy that any collector would be delighted to add to their collection,  STILL IN COLLECTABLE CONDITION AND IS GRADED AS AN HONEST EX/EX- SOME 38 YEARS OLD NOW???!!!

ALTHOUGH THIS IS NOT PERFECT, IT IS STILL IN SUPERB COLLECTABLE CONDITION AND SO VERY HARD TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION

DON'T MISS THIS IT COULD BE YOUR ONE AND ONLY CHANCE.
