with original.......

• transparent red vinyl

(looks black until held up to a strong light -

it can then be seen that the vinyl is actually red)

• wide spine gatefold cover
• large fold-out poster
• 'lyric' book
• 'scraps' book

Cover: Unlaminated Shorewood wide-spine 1st pressing gatefold cover is Excellent. No writings, doodles or seam splits. Has some light corner/edge wear.  Has 'Distributed by PYE records' on rear cover. Paper (non poly-lined) inner sleeve is Excellent. Labels: Mint. Poster: Near Mint.   Scraps book: Mint.  Lyric book: Mint. Vinyl: Not play tested. The condition looks to be Near Excellent with light marks only - no feelable marks. This is the rare 'red' vinyl pressed by PYE which is highly sought after by Elton John collectors. Just hold the vinyl up to the light and you can see a deep red transparent hue. Might benefit from a light clean before playing - not played for many years. Postage & packaging: £3.50 (UK) £6 (EUROPE) & £10 (REST OF THE WORLD)

Gradings.......

Mint - The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. Excellent - The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality.

Very Good - The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality despite noticeable surface marks and occasional light scratches.

 

Good - The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and more signifcant scratches.

 

Fair - The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise, it may even jump.

 

Poor - The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc

 

Bad - The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
