Description of the record:
This is a single vinyl album by Pink Floyd called “Animals”.
Gatefold Sleeve:
First press Garrod & Lofthouse wide spine gatefold sleeve with no barcode. Has only one opening at the back for the record to slide in and out. The opening at the front is sealed with a flap; later pressings don’t have this. In the lower right hand corner of the inside cover it says “Made and printed in Great Britain 7701 TM Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd”. The gatefold sleeve has been graded VG, shelf ware and edge ware.
Inner Sleeve:
First issue thick card type with rounded corners and 9” notch on the edge that opens. In the lower right corner of the second side it says “SHVL 815 (1)”. The inner sleeve has been graded as VG, 1” seam split bottom edge, thumbing and minor creasing.
Labels:
Text around the top edge of the label starts at 9 o'clock and says; “EMI Records Ltd. All rights of the producer and of the owner of the recorded work reserved”. Text around the bottom edge of the label starts at 7 o'clock and says; “Made in Great Britain Unauthorised public performance, broadcasting, and copying of this record prohibited”. Labels have some spindle ware.
Vinyl:
The record has been pressed in black vinyl and has been graded as drifting between the grades of Ex and VG; some unobtrusive back ground noise in places. This is a first pressing on “EMI Records Ltd” from 1977. The matrix for side 1 is SHVL 815 A-3U and for side 2 is SHVL 815 B-4U. The code for the album is SHVL 815. The record has been removed from the inner sleeve and is stored separately in a white inner sleeve. The running order is laid out below:
Side 1: SHVL 815 A-3U
- Pigs on the wing (Part One)
- Dogs
Side 2: SHVL 815 B-4U
- Pigs (Three different ones)
- Sheep
- Pigs on the wing (Part Two)
The record was graded using a Linn Adikt cartridge combined with a Gyger 2 stylus through an audiophile system. For grading definitions see the bottom of this advert.

Guarantee:
Having played the record all the way through I guarantee the person who buys the records will not be disappointed; taking the grading into account. However if the item does not meet with the customers expectation then a full refund will be given if the item is returned in the same condition as it was sent. The refunding of postage and packaging will depend on the nature of the dissatisfaction.
Packaging:
The records will be packaged appropriately to prevent any damage from occurring during transit. Sealed records are not tampered with; if the records are not sealed then the following steps are taken. Records are removed from the outer sleeve to prevent damage occurring to the records or outer sleeve during transit. If records are housed in customised inner sleeves then the records are removed from the customised inner sleeves and placed in white inner sleeves. This prevents damage occurring to the customised inners sleeves such as seam splits and ring ware during transit.
