Vinyl Condition: NM-
The record is in absolutely beautiful condition, retaining a gorgeous sheen with little to no light hairline/rub marks.

The original Vertigo labels present beautifully.
Sleeve Condition: EX / EX-
The original embossed UK sleeve remains in very nice condition for its age. Conservatively graded EX to EX-. Please inspect all photographs carefully prior to purchase, as the pictures form an important part of the condition description.

Please note: the original poster is NOT included.
This is an excellent opportunity to own a beautiful-playing first UK Vertigo pressing of one of Black Sabbath’s most iconic albums at a killer, highly competitive price.
I’m a longtime fan of Black Sabbath, heavy metal, and classic rock, and I’ve been collecting records for a couple of decades. These records have been carefully looked after and enjoyed as reference copies on my hi-fi system. The sound quality of these early pressings can be absolutely amazing—they offer a listening experience all their own and are a genuine piece of music history.
I’m happy to see these records go to fellow collectors and music enthusiasts who will appreciate them as much as I have. Please feel free to review my eBay feedback history, which reflects my strong reputation and commitment to accurately representing, carefully packing, and shipping the items I sell.
