This listing is for an incredibly rare Irish pressing of the classic John Lennon Imagine album.  Featuring the iconic EMI 2 box labels this is a very hard pressing of this album to find so grab it while you can.
Difficult to value as there are no other copies of this pressing on International Ebay at this time.
Please check out my other listings for other rarities and classics across various genres.
All of my records are play tested on a Technics SL-1200 with a Grado GF3 stylus which is quite revealing so any sound defects may be more exaggerated than on other more mainstream players.  Or conversely if you are a full on audiophile I will let you judge how your set up compares and how you envisage the sound will compare.
I don't currently have access to a cleaning machine so please forgive any dust or finger marks which are on any of my records - hopefully will be investing in one at some point.
Record Appearance - VG+ Lovely glossy finish to both sides just a handful of very light marks and the odd scratch, nothing deep or intrusive to playback.  Labels are in great condition with only minimal spindle marks and a couple of pressure tears around the hole which would have been from manufacture.
Record Audio - VG/VG+ Most of the playback is VG+ but there is some light surface noise on quieter moments, particularly the title track which is common with this album, I have handled a lot of these being a Beatles fan.  A machine clean may help with this and bring it back to perfect but I cannot guarantee, a great sounding audio for 90% of the time. 
Record Sleeve - VG+ Very close to NM this sleeve is in wonderful condition and also comes with the small photo of John and his piggy.  There is barely any shelf wear and spines and edges are superb, one of the best I've seen for a record of this vintage. 
All questions answered and offers considered.  Thanks for looking and please follow me and check out my other listings as they appear.  I work full time and have 3 children so please forgive any delay in communication but should be within 24 hours.
