Description
This is a genuine first pressing of this brilliant 1971 album on the tan Deram label, catalogue number SDL R1. Some sellers try to pass off copies of this album on the red Deram label as first pressings, but this is misleading and incorrect. Matrix numbers are ZAL-10424.P-1D/ZAL-10425.P-1D.
Laminated gatefold sleeve - VG + overall. The laminate is still nice & shiny, although there is a little shrinkage in places. There is some light creasing & scuffing here & there. The spine is still readable, although the crease of the spine goes right though the album title & the band's name.
Company inner bag - This is the original from 1971 and is in VG condition, with some creasing & yellowing.
Labels - Excellent - (minus). Clean & bright overall, with a fair amount of spindlewear.
Vinyl - visually VG ++. Some light hairlines & marks seen under a strong light. Play grade is VG + overall, with some light crackle in places.
All records are from my own personal collection. I am not a dealer but I have been collecting records for over 40 years. Occasionally I have excess items to sell off, all of which have been carefully play-tested. I use a Sansui SR-222 Mk 2 turntable, with an SME headshell and an Ortofon NF 15E Mk 2 cartridge. The tracking weight used is a very light 0.75 grams, which will show up any jumps.
I use the Record Collector grading system, and I try to slightly under-grade wherever possible to avoid disappointment. I always give a refund if the buyer is not completely satisfied. Please contact me if there are any problems, rather than leaving negative feedback (I haven’t had any so far!).
Postage to the UK is £2.50, with £1.00 for each extra record.
Postage to Europe is £4.50, with £1.50 for each extra record.
Postage to the rest of the world is £8.00, with £2.00 for each extra record.
Payment is normally by PayPal, but I will accept cheques from UK bidders.
All items are sent in cardboard envelopes, with at least 1 stiffener. Records will be placed outside the sleeve in a new polylined inner to avoid damage to the sleeve.
Please look out for my other auctions over the coming weeks.
Happy bidding!
