Description

Hello and welcome to my auction.
I have taken many pictures of this record as seen above.
I use the record collector grading system of Bad / Poor / Good (G) / Very Good / Excellent / Mint.
Please see below for grading details.
I also use a + or a - for grades that I consider slightly better or worse.
A VG disc on this site will not be is nasty condition like many sellers.
All records are sent out in plastic covers.
I never ship records inside the picture covers or LP jackets.
PINK FAIRIES

NEVER NEVER LAND.
UK STEREO POLYDOR 1971 LP ON TRUE PINK VINYL -- 2383 045.
Also included with the sale is a promo photo as seen in the pictures above.
Only 100 copies on pink vinyl were pressed, most of these did NOT look pink and were more red in colour.  On offer here is a super rare example on pink splattered vinyl, this was clearly due to colour issues at the pressing plant in 1971. This is maybe the rarest psych / prog LP for sale on Ebay at the moment as this is the only copy I have ever seen. I do not think you will ever see another true pink example come up for sale again. The normal more red pressing is super rare as a UK 1st pressing, this pink example is the holy grail!
I have started bidding at a really good price for such a rare one off item!
This is part of a Motorhead collection from a person who personally knew Lemmy and Larry Wallis. I will be listing this collection from May this year. If you are into Motorhead or Lemmy related items this will really blow your mind as I have to offer some of the best and rarest items ever seen on the net! 
Please note I will not answer questions for home visits or what I have. Please keep an eye out on this site and all will be listed over some time. 
I have listed a few items tonight as a little warm up of what is to come.
The Record / EX+ visual condition. The LP looks to of been played just a couple of times, the spindle areas are great. 

Sound / play grading / VG+ / As you may know these promo pink coloured pressings play with some surface crackle. The LP plays well for this pressing, lets say VG+.
Matrix Numbers / 2383045 A//1 / 2383045 B//1
Vinyl Weight / 142 Grams.
The Plastic Cover / VG+ condition. A nice example with just a small split to the top corner. The cover I would keep from the card inner as it is very stiff to get inside. 
The Card Cover / VG / This gatefold card inner has some creasing and edge wear. The gatefold still looks kine for its 51 year age.
The Labels / EX+ condition. 
The Inner Cover / VG condition. 
The inner cover / VG condition. The back has some writing I think from the pressing plant as it states using record 836. The sides have a couple of small splits. The inner is very rare as it states this is a pink pressing so it is not the same as the black vinyl inner cover.
.................................................................................
I USE THE UK GRADING SYSTEM BELOW.
Mint - as new and in perfect condition.
Excellent - A real nice example with light wear only. An EX disc will play great and the cover will be very nice too.
Very Good - The disc will have light surface wear and some light marks. The record will still play very well but may have some surface sound and a little crackle as this is graded as VG. The cover will have some creasing and storage age wear.  The disc and cover will have no very serious faults. A VG disc and cover will also not be perfect!
Good / G condition - The disc will have very visible surface wear and light marks with some deeper marks. The cover will show much age wear and will not be the best example! The record will still play but will have surface sound and ticks etc.
Fair - This will be a tatty example of both disc and cover. The record will play with surface sound and noise. The cover will look tatty from age and storage wear.
Bad / Poor -This will be a badly worn example of both record and cover. The disc may jump or play with much surface sound. I would rarely sell an item like this. 
Thanks for looking.
