QUEEN Greatest Hits Pic Disc - Ultra Rare Genuine Original Bulgarian Pressing - Catalogue No: PD BTA 11253/54
"Mega rare 100% guaranteed genuine and official 1981 19-track picture disc LP, pressed in West Germany exclusively for the Bulgarian market featuring a stunning picture of the band on stage with different tracklisting from UK issue. The vinyl is graded as VG but this is typical with vinyl from this part of the world. Impossible to find in any condition - a superb item for serious collectors"
The above is quoted directly from EIL records - world leader in collectable music rarities. (see http://eil.com/shop/moreinfo.asp?catalogid=223661&from=AG07D125)
Record Collector magazine have this as number 14 in their all time top 100 list of Queen rarities. This disc is widely bootlegged, but the original genuine pressings are easily identifiable by;
1) Quality of picture - no bluriness or 'double shadowing' on picture
2) On the bootlegs, the 'Marshall' guitar stacks behind John Deacon doesn't show any of the left hand 'Marshall' writing on the amp head; the original clearly shows 2/3rd of this.
I have a genuine reason for sale of this item - I am a Queen fan, not a record dealer, and have had the disc stored safely and properly for approx. 17 years. Ideally I would like this to go to a serious collector/fan who will value the disc as I have. I have set a realistic reserve price according to all serious valuations set for this disc.
Questions by email are welcome - photos of actual disc are happily provided on request. I am located in Kent, and due to the nature of the item would ideally like to see it collected, but I could deliver (at cost) to a reasonable distance. I will post if requested, and will package securely, but buyer accepts all liability.
