A very rare item in any condition, but above all like this!! This is one of the nicest copies of this HMV 10" I've seen, and I'm sure the buyer of this will agree. This record usually turns up in a very poor state, heavily played immediately after being bought, and with now 51 years having passed since that day, the cover, especially, is only worth keeping as a shoddy piece of Rock 'n' Roll history, a token of the beginnings of modern music, usually badly torn and taped up, with sections missing, barely worth keeping were it not for the rarity of this item, but NOT THIS ONE ! This is one of the nicest covers you will see, and is seriously rare like this. No heavy creases, splits, soiling or graffiti, and only a little laminate loss to note, to the lower left and lower right front corners, with the lower-right corner having lost a tiny amount of the colour to the printed surface, but otherwise, this is a stunning cover for this rarity. Superb. The vinyl is even better, having been barely played in all these years, and both looks and sounds stunning. A fantastic-looking record, and again, megarare like this. Just the absolute lightest of wispy traces to note, this is as close to MINT as you are realistically likely to find after 51 years, and easily grading EX+, I feel !! The original inner sleeve is similarly free from major wear. This will take pride of place in your collection.

A FANTASTIC, MEGA-RARE ADDITION TO YOUR COLLECTION!!
