Pink Floyd ?– Wish You Were Here

This is very genuine first press of this classic album. Personally my favourite Floyd Album.

A rare A1/B3 matrix UK pressing. Finding a 1st press in this wonderful condition is quite rare indeed and makes this a very special chance to own a genuinely rare early press with brilliant clear sound.

The Outer Sleeve: This has the original Outer sleeve with the "pinched" spine. Spine is narrow at the top and bottom, and wide in the middle. Its not as white as it used to be but there are very little signs of shelf wear. All corners and edges are in excellent condition. The bottom right corner has become very slightly softened but nothing major. At its worst I think its just a little dirty and maybe a clean could brighten it up. Thatss up to the purchaser

The Inner Sleeve: This is also in excellent condition but shares some of the discolouring of the outer sleeve. This is however much better and more white. This genuine 1st press inner sleeve has sharp die cut corners and edges. Excellent for an album that is meant to be played and not stored.There are some small "liquid" marks in places but not loads. It looks like it could be tea!?

The Record: Excellent condition on both sides. The intro to side one does display some very mild crackle from static or dust but that's the downside to this epic song. Its quiet for a little. The background noise does not interfere and I personally think its part of the audible value of this album. Both sides play excellently with amazing sound quality. There are some very mild wispy marks on the vinyl surface but you can only really see them from a certain angle and with good light. The surface is really excellent. A Machine clean may make it even better!

Labels are in awesome condition but side one has a small printing issue. This was obviously done during the printing/pressing process.

The all important matrix info is A1/B3 which does make this a genuine first press. You cant really get an earlier edition.

Mother stampers are:
Side one: 1 GO
Side two: 4 MT
