THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!! THIS IS ONE OF THE RAREST LPs ON THE DAWN LABEL - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!! JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!! BACK IN 1971 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED - IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS, AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!! AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!! THIS LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT IS 100% COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL 'LYRIC' INSERT (SO OFTEN MISSING!) AND IS IN ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE CONDITION!!!!
NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN ABSOLUTELY AWESOME CONDITION (AND MUST BE ONE OF THE BEST CONDITIONED 1ST PRESSINGS LEFT IN EXISTENCE!) - AND HAS ONLY EVER BEEN PLAYED ONCE (IF THAT!)!!!! IN FACT, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT AT ALL - THAT THIS IS THE BEST CONDITIONED 1ST PRESSING I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!! JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!! THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1971 UK 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS DAWN LABEL, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, ULTRA RARE 1ST PRESS 'LYRIC' INSERT, AND 1ST PRESS 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE' GATEFOLD 'PATENTS PENDING' COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL Dawn UK 1st Pressing from 1971 and is in absolutely AWESOME condition!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is DNLS 3019 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Dawn label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!!
The record labels are in AMAZING condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and NO spindle marks AT ALL!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS ONLY EVER BEEN PLAYED ONCE (IF THAT!)!!!! The vinyl is in absolutely AWESOME condition!!!! Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO nasty concentric marks, NO lateral marks, NO nasty feelable scratches, NO scufflines, only 2 or 3 absolutely TINY surface traces (only visible under the VERY brightest of lights ONLY - and clearly as supplied from the factory in 1971, as this record has barely been touched since NEW!), and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOKS AMAZING!!!! It is great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, barely ANY clicks AT ALL (virtually NONE!), NO sticking, NO jumps, NO hiss, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!! And because this record has only EVER been played just ONCE (if that!) - the sound quality is simply AWESOME with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!! The record must grade Excellent++++ if not MINT(Minus)!!!! AWESOME RECORD!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in SUPERB condition!!!! THE ULTRA RARE 'LYRIC' INSERT IS IN AWESOME CONDITION - AND HAS CLEARLY NEVER LEFT THE COVER!!!! The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Gatefold 'Patents Pending' Cover is in absolutely AMAZING condition!!!! The cover has NO rips, NO tears, NO edge wear AT ALL, NO spinal wear AT ALL (PERFECT side words & colour!), barely ANY corner wear AT ALL (NOT through the colour!), NO sticker marks, NO yellowing, barely ANY creases AT ALL (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), NO ringwear, NO rubbing, only some very VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to 1 extreme corner tip ONLY, NO sticker tears, and NO writing!!!! The opening edges are beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL (virtually NONE!)!!!! Even the inside of the cover is in AWESOME condition - with NO ringwear, NO yellowing, NO grubbyness, NO rubbing, and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Excellent++++ if not better - and surely must be one of the VERY best covers for this LP left in existence, and is certainly the ULTIMATE upgrade!!!! AWESOME COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS (IT SURELY MUST BE ONE OF THE VERY BEST 1ST PRESSINGS LEFT IN EXISTENCE!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items (I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!) - PLEASE REMEMBER to contact with me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one! I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem! This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem. Thanks again - Graham @ XXXRecords. PLEASE NOTE - Private feedback bidders must consult me first prior to bidding - due to previous problems regarding non-payment, and non-receipt. MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS (I always undercharge on postage!):- Due to UK Royal Mail's obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little. Until this year - I had kept them exactly the same since I joined ebay back in 2002. However this years price increases have been so obscene, that I have had no choice but to increase my postage charges for the first time ever. However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100% guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out. Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself. On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package (please check it when you recieve it!). I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs! And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference. THAT IS MY 100% POSTAL GUARANTEE FOR EACH AND EVERY BUYER! No buyer EVER deserves to be overcharged on postage - and on my listings, I'll make sure they are ALWAYS undercharged. Any questions - please ask!
