THE VINYL MINT INCREDIBLE TIME CAPSULE CONDITION
As you can see, this vinyl is the highly prized 1st UK pressing with the MATT LABELS -Stored from new this LP has seen one play, and remains in pristine condition everywhere. The best example we have seen.
VERY RARE TO SEE THE GENUINE UK RELEASE..MOST ARE IMPORT COPIES.
This first pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age. The edges are silky smooth, typical of these vintage pressings. We are seing fewer and fewer copies of this LP, so rarely do we see a copy at all, let alone like this.
No spider lines around the centre hole, and no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever.
SURPLUS WAX AROUND THE CENTRE HOLE -IMMACULATE
There is barely a hint of any whisp lines, and thats it- nothing else! Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION.
IT PLAYS MINT, AS BRAND NEW..QUITE ASTOUNDING!
OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.
THE LABELS MINT FLAT MATT LABELS
THE SLEEVE MINT- SIMPLY PRISTINE.
Correct FLAT MATT first UK issued earliest sleeve -by 'Garrod & Lofthouse'. with EMI credits. Later sleeves were the typical glossier late 70s/80s design -
This is in simply incredible condition, you will not see better than this we feel!
The edges are all super clean with no traces of rub, at all , and all colours and inks remain in outstanding condition
No powdery white ringwear -the 'feintest' of ring press, hardly detectable, and all edges are super crisp.
The open edge remains in immaculate sharp condition with not a hint of handling
Only a couple of feint spider lines over the edge of the spine, and one tiny tiny dink on the top edge.
The spine edge is totally unmarked with no squash or wear! This type of thin square spine is typical of these first edition EMI sleeves, and all legends are perfectly readable, no rub or spider lines at all.
We cannot add any more than this! it is simply 'out the box' condition
WE CLARIFY BY SAYING, THIS SLEEVE IS MUSEUM QUALITY.
THE INNER SLEEVE MINT
THICK CARD LYRIC INNER
Pristine, thick card rounded corners and thumb groove.. ABSOLUTELY 100% PERFECT!
