Description
I'm starting to list a collection of about 200 lps and 45s put together by my wife between about 1969 and 1984. Few of these have been played more than 2 or 3 times as, generally, they were recorded to tape and then put away. About 75% are in Near Mint store bought condition and look as if they've just been purchased. They were usually bought within a few days of being issued so, not only are they in pristine condition, they're mostly first pressings. Plus the lps all have their original inner sleeves and any inserts. The collection has remained untouched in a cupboard at my wife's parents house since she moved out and got married in 1984. If I find any blemishes or faults with any of these records I will point them out. Even the slightest shelf wear is absent from many. If you require additional photos of anything please let me know.

The glossy box cover is in Near Mint condition. There are no tears, splits, stains, dents, stickers or shelf wear. The cardboard is as clean and sharp as the day it left the printers. There are jus two or three faint creases to the opening flap. The back has "VO PRICE CODE" in a white square.
The Vertigo swirl poly-lined inner sleeve is in Excellent condition with just some minor creasing and a little browning / ageing round the edges.
The poster is in Excellent condition with just a tiny pinhole in each corner where it was, very briefly, hung on a bedroom wall. The creases where it has been folded are still crisp and sharp.
In summary
a very desirable, and very rare in this condition with poster, copy of a 41 year old record.
Comes from a smoke free home.
I ship in purpose-made strong cardboard mailers and I'm happy to combine multiple purchases to save postage costs.
