THE ROLLING STONES - 'STICKY FINGERS'

1971 UK 1st PRESSING LP


This barely played & well looked-after UK 1971 1st pressing is on the custom yellow Rolling Stones label: COC 59100

The disc is housed within the iconic Andy Warhol designed cover featuring a fully working zipper.

The package is 100% complete with its original printed insert and 'Patent No...' inner-sleeve.


Matrices: COC 59100-A3 & COC 59100-B5

'T.M.L. ROLLING STONES RECORDS' is etched into the side 1 run-out.

Disc weight: 100g


CONDITION

Disc

Labels: MINT

An immaculate & vibrant pair with no spindle marks or wear to each centre hole.

Visual: EXCELLENT +

Both playing surfaces of this well-looked after copy are extremely clean & bright with just 2 or 3 wispy hairlines on side 1 visible strong daylight. Careful examination in strong daylight reveals little more than some more harmless wispy paper hairlines but no other significant or major blemishes. The edge of the disc is ever so slightly uneven when playing, but this does not affect sound or play in any way.

Play: EXCELLENT +

This great copy has been barely played and is without any evidence of any groove/play wear or background noise on or between any track. My play-check revealed just a few faint ticks on 'Sister Morphine' but absolutely no other audible distractions or wear elsewhere anywhere.

Cover

EXCELLENT +

Nice to find this fragile and easily damaged cover in such fine condition. The front panel is clean, flat with the only blemish being a few tiny holes next to the zip-puller but damage to the belt top-opening. All corners are sharp and square and the top-opening edges itself is sharp & unworn from both sides. There are just 2 or 3 unavoidable tiny indentations on the rear panel where it was stored against other album's zips but no traces of any other wear. Both seams and the fully worded spine spine are fully intact with no splits or stresses. Tough to find better.

Inner-sleeve:

EXCELLENT


Clean & flat with just some light handling wear to the upper edge, but no writing, tears or splits.

Insert:

EXCELLENT


Clean & bright with just a small crease in one upper corner and a small red mark on the rear lower edge.
