Matrix Details
Side 1: XEX 421-1N/GLL/111
Side 2: XEX 422-1N/RDO/413
Front Cover
Fully laminated, large ‘Mono’ cover. Some light creasing, light ringwear and light corner wear. Generally speaking, it’s a normal and totally respectable cover with no rips, no writing etc - see the photos
Rear Cover
Printed by E.J. Day. Unlaminated except for the three flipbacks. A decent example with only light foxing and very mild discolouration.
There is a name written in very fine pencil at the top. It is hardly noticeable but, as it’s pencil, it can easily be removed. See photos.
Spine
Intact with all text clearly visible. No splits, rips etc.
Inner Sleeve / Inserts
Original ‘Use Emitex…’ sleeve with ‘tracing paper’ lining. No splits or rips or writing; just light creasing…
VINYL
Side 1
Some hairline marks and a few light scuffs but these are in the minority; the playing surface still has a good healthy look. It has been play tested by me and plays fine with no sticking or jumping throughout. There’s just the usual light crackle on run-ins and run-outs but it can’t be heard over the music, which has that fantastic 60s Parlophone mono sound – lively, powerful and punchy. It just leaps from the speakers full of musicality…
The label has some light spindle marks, as can be expected…
Side2
As side 1 but with fewer marks. The vinyl still has a healthy appearance. It plays through like side 1 with no problems to speak of.
The label has the KT Tax Code, the usual spindle marks and a fine line across it – see photos.

ITEMS FOR DELIVERY IN THE UK ARE SENT BY FIRST CLASS SIGNED-FOR MAIL ONLY!
Postage and packing costs for one LP are as follows (with discounts for multiple purchases). All items are sent properly and strongly packaged in an album mailer with a protective outer plastic sleeve, corrugated inner stiffeners, poly-lined paper inner sleeve and with the disc outside the sleeve to prevent spine splitting.
PLEASE NOTE: POSTAGE CHARGES IN THE UK ARE LIKELY TO INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THIS WEEK. THE CHARGES YOU SEE BELOW ARE LIKELY THEREFORE TO BE INCORRECT AND LOW. IN ITS WISDOM, ROYAL MAIL HAS DECIDED THAT THE BEST WAY TO SAVE ITSELF FROM EXTINCTION IS TO PUT ITS PRICES UP TO MAKE UP FOR THE SHORTFALL IN ITS REVENUE CAUSED BY ‘THE INTERNET’ (SO IT CLAIMS). I BLAME OUR USELESS GOVERNMENT OF MONEY-WORSHIPPING PUBLIC-SCHOOLBOY TOSSERS IN THRALL TO BIG BUSINESS. B A S T A R D S !
UK First Class ‘Signed For’ = £4.00
‘Signed For’ is to protect YOU as a buyer and ME as a seller so I can confirm whether the record has arrived and so you can track its progress.
Europe by Airmail = £5.50 (BUT SEE BELOW!)
Rest of the World by Airmail = £7.50 (BUT SEE BELOW!)
(e.g. USA, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, or anywhere that is NOT UK or Europe)
I reserve the right to insist that an item is posted by ‘International Signed For’ to Europe or Rest of World and paid for by the buyer accordingly. It costs an extra £4.95 IN ADDITION to standard airmail costs.
It is likely to apply if, for example, the item has sold for a sum above £25, or the buyer has a low or dubious feedback score, or is in a country which has, in my experience and that of others I know, a poor record of safe postal delivery (e.g. Italy, Brazil, Russia to name but a few. That is not an exhaustive list.).
It may apply in other circumstances too and solely at my discretion. It is to protect us both!
PLEASE DO NOT PAY UNTIL I SEND AN INVOICE!
IF YOU DON’T ACCEPT OR AGREE TO ANY OF THE ABOVE THEN PLEASE DO NOT BID!
IF YOU ARE THE WINNING BIDDER AND YOU WANT FEEDBACK LEFT FOR YOU THEN PLEASE HAVE THE COURTESY TO LEAVE IT FOR ME FIRST. I WILL THEN LEAVE IT FOR YOU.
