On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Rolling Stones called "Sticky Fingers" and is an ORIGINAL 1971 UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Rolling Stones label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  IT IS ONE OF THE RAREST & MOST SOUGHT AFTER ROLLING STONES LPS EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  IT IS ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT LPs ON THE ROLLING STONES LABEL - AND IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!!  IT IS ALSO ONE OF THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSINGS EVER MADE - WITH NO EXTRA LABEL CREDITS (LATER ONES DO!)!!!! 

AND ANOTHER VERY IMPORTANT PIECE OF INFORMATION THAT RECENTLY CAME TO LIGHT (MOST ROLLING STONES COLLECTORS WILL KNOW THIS ALREADY!) IS THAT THE 'LARGE ZIP' MYTH HAS FINALLY BEEN EXPOSED!!!!  UP UNTIL RECENTLY SOME PEOPLE WERE UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THE 'LARGE ZIP' STAMPED 'PAN' WAS THE EARLIEST.  HOWEVER, SOME EXTREMELY CLEVER PERSON DID SOME VERY IMPORTANT RESEARCH AND EXPOSED THE MYTH!!!!  FIRSTLY - ON ALL 'LARGE ZIP' COVERS - AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SPINE IT WILL SAY 'WEST GERMANY'.  OR MORE COMMONLY THERE IS SOME LIGHT WEAR THERE INSTEAD - WHERE SELLERS HAVE REMOVED IT.  OFTEN YOU WILL SEE A COVER WITH A PERFECT SPINE - AND YET ON THE VERY BOTTOM PINCH OF THE SPINE, WILL BE SOME FRACTIONAL WEAR - GIVING THIS AWAY!!!!  HOWEVER, FURTHER PROOF WAS FOUND - WHEN THE 'PAN' ZIP MANUFACTURER WAS EVENTUALLY LOCATED IN GERMANY!!!!  SO ALL 'LARGE ZIP' COVERS ARE LATER IMPORTED GERMAN COVERS (AND NOT UK!) WITHOUT EXCEPTION!!!!  ANOTHER ZIP THAT CAN ALSO BE EXPOSED AS LATER, ARE ZIPS WITH THE 'YKK' STAMPINGS!!!!  'YKK' WERE A JAPANESE MANUFACTURER OF ZIPS WHO EVENTUALLY BECAME THE LARGEST MANUFACTURER OF ZIPS IN THE WORLD IN THE 1980s.  SO THOSE WITH 'YKK' STAMPINGS WILL BE FROM THE MID 1970s (AT BEST) - AND MOST WILL BE A LOT LATER STILL!!!!  THE 'TRUE' ZIP THAT CAME FIRST ON THIS COVER (AS MOST ROLLING STONES COLLECTORS WILL ALREADY KNOW) - IS THIS ONE, WITH A COMPLETELY 'BLANK' ZIP WITH 2 'INDENTED' LINES.  IT IS MADE OF FAR HIGHER QUALITY OF METAL, AND IS EASY TO SPOT & DATE - WHEN COMPARED TO SIMILAR CLOTHING ZIPS MADE IN THE LATE 1960s AND EARLY 1970s!!!!  SO NOT ONLY DOES THIS LP HAVE THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESS 'NO CREDITS' LABELS - BUT IT ALSO HAS THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESS ZIP COVER ASWELL!!!!

NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN BRILLIANT CONDITION - AND IS 100% COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS INSERT (SO OFTEN MISSING!)!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1971 UK 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS ROLLING STONES LABEL, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS LABEL TYPE, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS ZIP, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'PICTURE/CREDITS' INSERT, AND 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'ZIP' COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Rolling Stones UK 1st Pressing from 1971 and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is COC 59100 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Rolling Stones Label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!!  All the tracks are pure quality Rolling Stones at their best!!!! Any fan of The Rolling Stones, or 60s/70s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 1 small hairline, NO scufflines, only some ULTRA faint 'bag sweat' traces (only visible under light!), and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!!  It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some typical slight background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  BRILLIANT RECORD!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  THE ULTRA RARE 'PICTURE/CREDITS' INSERT IS IN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITION AND HAS CLEARLY NEVER LEFT THE COVER!!!!  The ORIGINAL 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Zip' Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO splits, NO spinal wear (PERFECT side words!), barely ANY edge wear AT ALL, NO rips, NO tears, only slight corner wear, NO ringwear, only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), NO rubbing, a nice 'belt' area (with a few creases to the top flap - but NO rips, and NO tears AT ALL!), NO annotations, only 1 TINY indentation in 1 corner, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL, only 2 or 3 TINY (and completely unavoidable) indentations in the usual place on the cover back (all 1st Pressings have these!), and NO writing!!!!  The 'Zip' itself is in WORKING ORDER - with NO greying AT ALL (most do!), and still retains a PERFECT golden colour!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
