Description
What we have here is possibly the RAREST Black Sabbath Paranoid album out there. Warner Bros. white vinyl issue from the 1970's with the Burbank label. This is more than likely a test pressing based on the hand written reference numbers on the labels and the fact the pressing plate still had small traces of black vinyl still on the plate when it was pressed which can be seen in some spots pushing from the inside out(what looks like discolorations is actually very small traces of black vinyl melted in with the white vinyl). After extensive research I've only been able to track down one other example of this record which had similar characteristics...I would guess that there is only a handful of these AT THE VERY MOST!!! It appears this was probably a trial run and impossibly rare!!!! Don't miss out on this gem...you will more than likely NEVER see one again! The vinyl is in Very Good++ condition with a light rub on one side not affecting play and light surface noise in between songs. The cover is in very good+ with a thin scrape at the top of the back side of the cover but other than that in very nice condition. The labels are in very nice condition with a reference number written on either side 549-13-7516. The label itself is rare with the early Burbank issue pressing with "Luke's Wall" misspelled to read "Luk's Wall"...the spelling was corrected in subsequent pressings with the Burbank label. The original inner is very good+ condition with some minor seem splits but over all very nice condition. Run-out numbers are WS-1-3104-G1 GOL on side 1 and MS-2-3104-G2 GOL on side 2
Due to the rarity of this record I can only ship recorded delivery which means unless you live in Canada or the US recorded shipping will be very expensive...up to 80 dollars US(sorry I don't make the rates for Canada Post)...so please contact me if you live overseas and want a shipping rate. Unfortunately Canada Post does not offer tracking to South American countries which means I cannot ship there among other countries...please contact me to make sure a package can be tracked to your country.
Tracked shipping within Canada is 15.00 US Tracked shipping to the US is 18.00 US International shipping please inquire
I do not make money off shipping, in fact I always lose money on shipping so please do not count that against me when giving a star rating...Canada Post is expensive and beyond my power to make it cheaper.
Good luck!
