FIRSTLY THIS ULTRA RARE 1969 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING HAS A LAMINATED 'FOLD OUT' GATEFOLD COVER (LATER ONES ARE UNLAMINATED) WHICH NATURALLY LOOKS 100 TIMES BETTER THAN THE COMMON UNLAMINATED COVERS THAT FOLLOWED!!!!  SECONDLY IT HAS A NUMBERED BOOKLET (LATER ONES ARE UN-NUMBERED!) AND 1ST PRESS 'MATT' TRACK LABELS WITH 'DOUBLE ALBUM' TEXT (LATER PRESSINGS DONT HAVE THIS)!!!!  IT IS ALSO WORTH NOTING THAT THE ULTRA RARE 'NUMBER' ON THE BOOKLET IS ALSO INCREDIBLY LOW - BEING '8086' (ONE OF THE FIRST 10,000 EVER MADE!), AND CLEARLY  WAY BEFORE THE RELEASE DATE!!!!  THIRDLY THE LAMINATED COVER HAS 1ST PRESS '613 013/4' TRACK CAT NUMBERS ON THE COVER, THE RECORD LABELS AND THE MATRIXES (LATER ONES DONT HAVE THIS!)!!!!  AND LASTLY THIS DOUBLE LP HAS 1ST PRESS A//1 B//1 A//1 B//1 MATRIXES ON EACH SIDE OF THE RECORDS, AND BOTH RECORDS ARE PRESSED ON MEGA THICK QUALITY VINYL (LATER ONES HAVE MUCH THINNER VINYL!)!!!!  BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP ONE OF THE VERY EARLIEST 1ST PRESSINGS EVER MADE - IS THAT THE COVER IS MADE BY 'E.J.DAY' AND HAS THE ALL IMPORTANT 'PATENTS PENDING' TEXT (LATER ONES DO NOT HAVE THIS)!!!!  NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS DOUBLE LP IS IN BRILLIANT CONDITION AND CLEARLY HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!   THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1969 UK 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS MATT' BLACK TRACK LABELS, 1ST PRESS 1/1/1/1 MATRIX ENDINGS, 1ST PRESS 'LOW NUMBERED' BOOKLET, 1ST PRESS 'DOUBLE ALBUM' TEXT ON BOTH LABELS, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVES, AND 1ST PRESS 'E.J.DAY' GATEFOLD 'TRIPLE FOLD-OUT' LAMINATED 'PATENTS PENDING' COVER!!!!  THIS AMAZING DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AS A 100% GENIUNE 1969 UK 1ST PRESSING WITH ALL THE INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT 1ST PRESS DETAILS GIVEN ABOVE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Track UK 1st Pressing from 1969 and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The records are pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is 613 013/4 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Track Labels (see picture) and is a Stereo 1st pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!!

The record labels on BOTH records are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THESE RECORDS HAVENT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl to BOTH records is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and BOTH records have NO scratches, only 2 or 3 TINY marks on 1 side ONLY, only 2 or 3 MEGA light hairlines, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  BOTH RECORDS STILL RETAIN THEIR ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINE LIKE NEW!!!!  It is great to find that the records play as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, only a VERY few clicks on 1 track ONLY, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some VERY slight background sound on the run on grooves and gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  The records are also slightly uneven - though my system had absolutely NO problem tracking these records AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The records MUST grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  Believe me these records are NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The records also come in their original 1st Press inner sleeves which are in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The 1st Press LOW NUMBERED Booklet (see picture) is in absolutely BRILLIANT condition with NO rips, NO tears, NO splits, NO writing, barely ANY creases AT ALL, and a PERFECTLY printed LOW number (8086)!!!!  AN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITIONED BOOKLET!!!!  The ORIGINAL 'Earliest' 1st Press 'E.J.Day' Patents Pending LAMINATED Gatefold 'Triple Fold-Out' Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The cover has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), VERY shiny laminate, NO laminate lifting AT ALL (MEGA rare on this cover!), only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), and NO writing!!!!  There is also some VERY minor evidence of 'touching in' in places - but this is so VERY minor it is completely INVISIBLE (and most wouldnt even notice it anyway!)!!!!  The opening edges & fold-out edges are VERY straight!!!!  Even the unlaminated inside is in BRILLIANT condition with NO writing, NO rubbing, NO ringwear, NO grubbyness, and NO yellowing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AS A 100% GENIUNE 1ST PRESSING, AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND 100% COMPLETE LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!
