VINYL CONDITION: MINT

BOTH SIDES LOOK STUNNING - UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE IS NO NOTICEABLE MARKS - WOW. The vinyl is also flat when viewed on a rotating turntable and stylus tracks correctly.

LABEL CONDITION: MINT -Clean unmarked labels with some ONLY 1 light spindle trace line

AUDIO GRADING: STUNNINGLY CLEAR - MINT

Brilliant audio throughout all tracks, exceptionally clean clear sound, and without any background noise evident even in the quietest parts of Pink Floyd's compositions the vinyl has retained the audio quality when it was new. A lovely copy to listen to from start to finish or rather doesn't as this UK 1st Press ends with the indefinitely dripping tap as only found on the earliest pressings!

GATEFOLD CONDITION: EXCELLENT PLUS

This early Garrod & Lofthouse matt printed wide spine gatefold has no structural damage, just some light storage rubbing to lower corner surfaces, however nothing major. Spine text is clear and bold . The sleeve is clean and has no writing inside or out. The iconic image of Lulubelle III by Storm Thorgerson on the front cover has the clarity and sharpness that only the 1st press sleeves had when this album was released, later releases being duller and lower contrast image.

INNER SLEEVE CONDITION: EXCELLENT PLUS

The EMI advertising inner sleeve has slight yellowing which is age related, however still in superb condition without tears, writing stains etc..

THIS IS ONE OF BEST COPYS EVER  TO COME ON THE MARKET

Happy Bidding
