ALL IN A LOVELY BOOK PRESENTATION BUT UNFORTUNATELY THE POSTER SET IS MISSING.
A hardback book and double vinyl album released in 1979, conceived, written and illustrated by Patrick Woodroffe, with music written and performed by Dave Greenslade. The title means, approximately, 'the first five books (pentateuch) of the creation (cosmogony)'.
The story and artwork within 'Pentateuch' concerns the discovery of an abandoned spacecraft in orbit around Jupiter, and the project to decipher the ideograms in the pentateuch 'document' discovered within. Most of the book is a retelling of the document, in much the same way as a modern translator might retell the contents of a Babylonian tablet or Egyptian papyrus scroll. Particularly remarkable is the combinatorial ideographic script created by Woodroffe and used throughout the artwork.
Greenslade contributes the 74 minutes of music as his second solo project, enlisting Phil Collins amongst others to help.
The double vinyl is visually graded in near mint (sides 1 & 3) excellent plus (side 2) and near mit minus condition (side 4). Please see below a description of grades and note that this vinyl is 47 years old that has been played and will not transform into anything different to the condition stated.
The labels are in near mint minus condition.
The spine is in excellent plus condition.
The cover is in excellent condition with a dent in the top right.
The book is attached to form the sleeve and all the pages are in near mint condition.
The LPs come in the original black inner sleeves.
Photos are of the actual item.

Play-grading MONO records: Mono records and stereo records have different grooves. A stereo record produces a stereo sound via both lateral and vertical groove modulation whereas a mono record is not intended to produce any sound from vertical modulation. Playing a mono record with a stereo cartridge will create distortion because it is trying to pick-up the vertical (stereo) part of the signal, whereas this is not intended to be heard on a mono record and so is just noise. Using a pre-amp with a mono switch will eliminate the noise caused by vertical modulation leaving just the lateral groove signal which is how the record was intended to be heard. If you do not have a mono switch on your amp or pre-amp you will be reproducing the noise from the vertical part of the signal and so the record will not sound as good. This is not any fault of the record, it is inherent to playing any mono record through a system that it was not designed for. Guide to grades used
