? ROLLING STONES - NO. 2 ? RARE BLIND MAN TEXT ? MONO

?UK RED UNBOXED DECCA 1965  ? GROOVED 'EARS' LABEL ? 'MADE IN ENGLAND' AT LABEL TOP ? NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION ?

MATRIXES: SIDE 1 : XARL 6619 -1A  STAMPER 1  D

                      SIDE 2 : XARL 6620 -2A STAMPER 1 D

Disk clean and shiny, plays without issues despite the occasional scuff or faint hairline - NEAR EXCELLENT

Labels are clean with moderate spindle markings despite age. This won't have been to many parties - NEAR EXCELLENT

Sleeve is laminated flipback made by James Upton Ltd. Lower flipback has one CM missing either side which does not affect how the cover holds the record. No splits. Very minor laminate bending for such a flimsy cover. Light staining on rear cover and one short name written. Strong legible spine.- NEAR EXCELLENT

This copy has the earliest cover with the much rarer flip-backed version and includes the later withdrawn ‘Blind Man’s’ text which was deemed offensive. On later copies, the offending text was pasted over and then subsequently reprinted, omitting this text altogether. You can see why, when you read it:

 “Cast deep in your pockets for loot to buy this disc of groovies and fancy words. If you don’t have the bread, see that blind man knock him on the head, steal his wallet and low and behold you have the loot, if you put in the boot, good, another one sold!"

A very collectable copy.

Discounts on multiple postage. Professionl packing every time.
