Description

Based on research using discogs, I am going to characterize this as the FIRST UK PRESSING with these features and matrices, as provided by discogs:


first UK edition does NOT have the inscription "A Promotone N.V. RECORD" on labels


"Small" metal zipper on front that unzips to reveal cotton briefs.


Sleeve is open at both top and bottom of sleeve


Matrices:


Matrix / Runout (Machine stamped A-Side runout): COC 59100 A3

Matrix / Runout (Machine stamped B-Side runout): COC 59100 B4


Matrix / Runout (Engraved on both sides' runout): T.M.L. ROLLING STONES RECORDS



I'll grade the jacket VERY GOOD, and it would be better except for the fact that the zipper has become unglued on the right and protrudes outside the jacket, as seen in listing photo.  Though not shown in the listing photos, there is the underwear behind the zipper and it is open both top and bottom.  Light to moderate corner wear, light edge wear, no splits or rings.  There is what looks like an inspection stamp which is rubbed a bit top right hand corner of back jacket.  


The LP has a light but feelable scratch extending to about 1/2 of the third cut on Side B, Wild Horses.  Because of this scratch, I've downgraded the grade to what I would normally have said is VG+ to VG.  There are visible scratches over clean vinyl, but because of the feelable scratch, I'll provide a final grade of VG.
