Description
PINK FLOYD: A SAUCERFUL OF SECRETS
ULTRA-RARE NEW ZEALAND ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING OF PINK FLOYD'S SECOND ALBUM.
IN 35 YEARS OF RECORD COLLECTING THIS IS THE ONLY COPY I'VE EVER SEEN OF THE FIRST KIWI ISSUE OF THIS PSYCH CLASSIC. THE NZ COPIES THAT OCCASIONALLY DO TURN UP ARE THE SECOND BLACK AND SILVER EMI BOX PRESSINGS. THIS, LIKE THE PINK FLOYD COLUMBIA SINGLES FROM AROUND THE SAME TIME ARE AS RARE AS HEN'S TEETH. CONSIDERING NEW ZEALAND'S POPULATION WAS ONLY 2,500,000 AT THE TIME AND NOT MANY PEOPLE WERE BUYING AN ALBUM LIKE THIS PUTS IT INTO PERSPECTIVE HOW RARE IT IS.
CONDITION:
RECORD VERY GOOD - QUITE A FEW HAIRLINES UNDER STRONG LIGHT BUT PLAYS FINE WITH SOME CRACKLE IN QUIETER PARTS E.G START OF SIDE 2 ("A SAUCERFUL OF SECRETS")
SLEEVE: VERY GOOD - FLIP-BACKED SLEEVE INTACT - SCALED DOWN VERSION OF THE UK SLEEVE WITH COPYRIGHT INFO (SEE PIC) NO RIPS OR TEARS BUT ORIGINAL OWNER HAS SIGNED HIS NAME ON REAR SLEEVE (SEE PIC) AND INSIDE SLEEVE (OUT OF SIGHT)
LABELS: NO TEARS - ORIGINAL OWNER HAS SIGNED NAME ON LABELS BOTH SIDES - ONLY DETECTABLE UNDER STRONG LIGHT
PLEASE NOTE:
FREE POSTAGE IS FOR UK BIDDERS ONLY
I USE THE RECORD COLLECTOR SYSTEM OF GRADING
