FIRST PINK i PRESS A2 / B4
- CATALOGUE:ISLAND ILPS 9111
- MATRIX: ILPS9111 A//2 1 1 3 / B//4 1 1 3
THE PINK i LABELS ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE PASTEL PINK COLOUR ALSO HAS A VERY SLIGHTLY TEXTURED FEEL TO IT THAT ONLY THE VERY EARLY PINK ISLAND LABELS HAD.WHITE AREAS ARE STILL PURE WHITE. NO MARKS OR STAINS AT ALL ON A ANY PART OF THE LABEL.
THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY CLEAR AND LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED.
THE SPINDLE HOLE IS UNWORN
THE VINYL IS IN REALLY EXCELLENT CONDITION HAVING RETAINED ITS ORIGINAL SHEEN THERE ARE NO MARKS TO BE SEEN ON THE DISC, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A FEW WISPS
A GENUINE FIRST PRESS SLEEVE TO MATCH THE LP. I SAY GENUINE BECAUSE THIS SLEEVE BEING NON LAMINATED IS PRONE TO SERIOUS RUBBING TO THE COLOURS, AND IT HAS BEEN KNOWN THAT SOME INDIVIDUALS HAVE CHANGED THE SLEEVE ON A PINK ISLAND COPY TO THAT OF THE LATER PINK RIM COPY. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS IS THAT ALTHOUGH THE SLEEVES ARE VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL, THE FIRST ISSUES WERE MADE BY E. J DAY AND CO, AND THE LATER ONES WERE MADE BY ROBOR
THE GATEFOLD COVER HAS SLIGHT SHELFWEAR

GRADINGS
MINT The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised, as Sealed or Unplayed will be mint.
EXCELLENT The record shows some signs of having been played, possibly with light surface marks but there will be very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD + The record may have scuff marks and signs of some wear but will still play almost perfectly throughout, with only barely detectable crackles or pops. A slight noise at the beginning is allowable, but the remainder must be nearly flawless. Definitely no scratches or gouges that a touch with a dry finger can feel. The cover may only have the slightest signs of normal wear.
VERY GOOD The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
ALL RECORDS ARE PACKED IN PROPER MAILERS WITH STIFFENERS
