This auction is for the excellent vinyl LP SELLING ENGLAND BY THE POUND by GENESIS - released in 1973. This original 1973 UK First Stereo Pressing on the Charisma 'Mad Hatter' Label - on thick quality vinyl - is presented in a superb condition First Pressing E.J.Day, London Cover, Dark Green Card Inner lyric sleeve and original white inner sleeve.

I understand that later versions of the LP came with a normal lyric insert but this LP came with the Rare Dark Green Card Inner Sleeve with the full song lyrics printed in white on both sides.

Track listing -

SIDE ONE: Dancing With The Moonlit Knight * I Know What I Like In Your Wardrobe * Firth Of Fifth * More Fool Me
SIDE TWO: The Battle Of Epping Forest * After The Ordeal * The Cinema Show * Aisle Of Plenty

The LP is a Stereo First Pressing, Catalogue No.CAS 1074, and the Cover is a first press E.J.Day, London cover with the original dark green card inner lyric sleeve. The vinyl itself is in excellent condition. It still retains its original 'when bought' look.The LP cover is in superb condition - when you consider that it is a card sleeve and some 32 years old !! It has very little edge or spinal wear and the sleeve printing seem as fresh as when it was purchased. There is no writing or other defacements on the sleeve.

I am not a record dealer and that this LP is from my own collection and was bought when new and has always been stored in a clear plastic outer cover - which will be sent with the LP - and within in a sturdy record case with other vinyl LP's. My vinyl LP's have been very well looked after and the playing condition was excellent when this superb LP last graced a turntable. This is a very reluctant sale but it now seems unlikely that i will be able to play my vinyl again.

A must for both fans of Genesis or collectors of progressive vinyl LP's this item will grace any collection.

P & P £2.95 to the UK or airmail £6.50 to Rest of the World.

Will Overseas Bidders kindly note that I am only able to accept payment by PayPal in GBP Sterling in settlement of their winning bids.
