Description

Elvis Costello - This Year's Model LP  1978 (RAD3) SUPER RARE 1ST PRESS!
**Matrix marks A1/ B1.
Message etched in Side 1's dead wax reads: "SPECIAL PRESSING No.003 RING MOIRA ON 434.... FOR YOU SPECIAL PRIZE".
Message etched in Side 2's dead wax reads: "PORKY PRIME CUT".  indicating the record was cut & mastered by the legendary Graham Peckham.
The vinyl has some very minor signs of shelf life (40yrs) which shouldn't effect playback quality, but overall the vinyl is excellent condition, very bright & glossy as if the record has rarely or never been played. The outer, inner * inner picture sleeves are all in perfect mint condition, preserved in its original rippled effect plastic protective sleeve from day one.
All records are dispatched within 1 working day, shipped in protective LP envelopes with extra stiffner supports, fragile labels, etc. Discount on shipping offered for multiple purchases, please message me. Extra photos available on request.
I have over 10 years experience both privately & through ebay with happy record collectors around the world. I use the standard vinyl grading guide such as the link below, which I feel is excellent but I like to give as much extra detail as possible giving an accurate eye account of all the contents.
