welcome to my auction / buy it now

i came across this 45 for the first time in early 2007 and i introduced it also for the first time on ebay on april 2007
and the second time on ebay was in 2014
i knew i had something unique in my hand when i got it which it will show in my description but i did not think it will get this amount of value in money.

pink floyd 
point me at the sky  / be careful with that axe eugene
columbia records - E.M.I. A3 DB 8511
black label / silver lettering 
original round center pressing
original pressing of egypt by sono cairo _____________________________________________________________________
description  -----------------
this is the third pressing era of pressing western records in egypt 
i call it the EMI first phase / the black label era  that lasted from late 1967 till 1972
in general  there was no full catalogue pressings of all the western labels that was pressed by sono cairo in egypt 
the pressing were almost 95% in 45 rpm format and titles were selected and in limited quantaties
about this record 
this is the only record by pink floyd pressed in egypt ...by far
the unique mispelling writing [FLOID] instead of [FLOYD]
the slightly different label artwork 
no picture cover were made in egypt for western releases  [ 33 or 45 rpm records] just sono cairo company sleeves. ___________________________________________________________________
grading  ------------ audio grading --------------------
side one  some large vertical hairlines on surface  [ does not affect sound] light to midi crackle and background noise  mostly at the start 
side two some large vertical hairlines on surface [less than side1] [ does not affect sound ] light to midi crackle and background noise  at the start and towards the end  3 or 4 very light ticks at the end of side 2
i would give a total audio grading of [very good] but i will be extra firm and strict and give it  [GOOD+]
the cover ---------------
sono cairo picked up a company sleeve used for arabic releases and made a boxed stamp seal on it with titles
here i offer the same company that  sono cairo used  but WITHOUT the boxed stamped seal of titles.
cover grading is close to excellent  __________________________________________________________________
