"SELLING ENGLAND BY THE POUND"
ULTRA RARE
1973 1st PRESSING
GARROD & LOFTHOUSE
COVER
CAS 1074
with 'B&C' credits on the rear of the cover
This auction is for the Garrod & Lofthouse cover only - no vinyl or insert.
Check out this Genesis website for information about this 1st pressing G&L cover......

Some experts (like the website above) claim that the Garrod & Lofthouse manufactured cover is the earliest that was pressed in the UK - while others claim that the E J Day cover is the first. It doesn't really matter who's right but one thing is for sure, the G&L cover is by far the rarest.
The one on offer here is only the third one I have ever seen in my years of record collecting - whereas I have owned many E J Day covers. It is almost impossible to find a G&L cover and Genesis collectors regard this as the most collectable of all the UK covers.
Condition:
Unlaminated non-gatefold UK 1st pressing cover made by 'Garrod & Lofthouse' - see scan. States "Marketed by B & C Records, 37 Soho Square, London W1" just above the G&L credit on the rear of the cover.
This cover is now 43 years old and has held up very well. Most of these unlaminated covers have become very tatty over the years but this is one of the better ones. Rates as VG+. See photos.
