This is a UK original Mono LP pressing. It has a front laminated flipback sleeve which is printed by "Garrod & Lofthouse". It has an outlined "Mono" on the front. It comes with its original tracing-paper lined "Emitex" company inner sleeve.
The record is pressed on thick vinyl & has yellow & black "Parlophone" labels. They have "The Gramophone Co. Ltd..."and "Sold in UK..." texts. The record has 1st press XEX 549-2 and XEX 550-2 matrix numbers. The mother stampers are GOM 5 and GHA 4 respectively.
Sleeve: There is some light to mild fading on the rear sleeve. There are some grubby finger print marks on the rear in a couple of areas too. There is some mild rubbing wear at the sleeve opening. VG condition
Vinyl: There are some light to mild sleeve rubs which can be seen under a strong light. There are about 5 light hairline marks. They measure from 1.5 cm to 3.5 cm in length. VG+ condition. The labels are in VG++ condition & show mild to more moderate spindle wear. The Emitex company inner sleeve is in Near EX condition. There is some light to very mild ringwear & creasing. There are no seam splits.
I have fully play tested this LP. It plays VG+ overall & Near Excellent in some places. There is some light or very mild crackle in some quieter places.
