1973


UK 1st Press with original lyric inner sleeve and EARLIEST gatefold sleeve with NO Pacific Eye & Ear credit. This was added in on later sleeves and you can see the print does not match the weight/density of printing on the earlier text, it's a little blacker/bolder. Sleeves with the Pacific Eye & Ear/Drew Struzan/Shepard Sherbell credits are LATER 2nd issue sleeves.

Vinyl: EX, some super faint wispy lines under bright light and a few superficial hairlines and a couple of surface scuffs.


Sleeve: EX+ front: very little rubbing or wear, very nice!  VG rear: some age marks and a slight water stain to bottom right corner.


Inner sleeve: EX, some creasing and browning with age. NO SEAM SPLITS! This is a VERY fragile sleeve and most are split right through! 


Audio: Mostly plays as EX+. Just a little faint background crackle on quitest sections, but even 'Fluff' plays pretty cleanly and is not at all spoiled by background noise. There is some slight distortion evident on Spiral Architect as the song gets about midway through and concludes - not at all uncommon as the needle approaches the spindle on some 1970s pressed vinyl, otherwise a great playing copy!





 THIS WILL BE SUPER WELL PACKED, AND SHIPPED ONLY WITH INSURANCE AND SIGNED FOR TRACKED SHIPPING. 
ANYTHING OVER £150 MUST BE SENT SPECIAL DELIVERY TO ALLOW FOR COMPENSATION FOR FULL VALUE. PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE BEFORE PAYING.
