Record Details
Warner Brothers Orange Label
Cat No: WS 1768
Matrix:
Side 1 - WS 1768 A-1
Side 2 - WS 1768 B-2
The vinyl is typical of late 1960's pressings: Heavyweight and Chunky. The disc has been played less than a handful of times since it's 1968 release. There is only one spindle mark to be seen on each label. The labels are otherwise unblemished and unworn. There are NO pen marks, NO rubbing, NO tears and NO age spots.
The vinyl itself is in MINT condition, a grading I very rarely use in relation to records, and especially unusually in relation to a record 37 years old. This copy is MINT!
The heavyweight vinyl, when looked at under a light, retains that rainbow sheen that can be seen on well pressed, virgin vinyl. Its that good. Rest assured this copy will play as well as any copy could play. There is NO scuffing, NO marks, NO warping and NO blemishes.
Sleeve Details
1st Press Stereo Green Warner Logo Flipback Garrod & Lofthouse Sleeve
1st Press Patents Inner Sleeve
The classic 1st Press front laminated flipback Garrod & Lofthouse flipback sleeve is in stunning Near MINT condition. It has NO Tears, NO splits and NO writing.
It has a crisp opening edge, which has NOT become dirty with age. The flipbacks have NOT become dog eared and worn, NOR have they come detached. There is NO seam wear.
The laminate is in stunning condition with NO cracking, peeling or lifting. It has shrunk a couple of Millimetres, but this is to be expected after 37 years. There are three very small creases (each less than 1cm long), two at the top of the sleeve, one at the left hand side. They barely detract from the overall condition of the package.
The record comes housed it's original British Patents inner sleeve, in superb Mint- condition
Copies of this original pressing are ridiculously rare, and you will struggle to see another UK 1st pressed copy of this seminal LP at all - let alone one approaching this condition. Don't miss out on this one.
