Description
This is very rare copy of 'Ride Me Donkey', the UK 1st press from 1968.
See the pictures for a rough description - a very nice shiny cover with minimally damaged corners and no splits; with minor staining to the rear opening-edge which is also on the inner. It appears much more serious under the lighting than when handled.
Recently received from the collection of the 1st and careful owner, hence the generally great condition; would grade EX.
The record itself has some minor marks and sleeve-scrapes but nothing raised or feel-able with a finger. I've played through the first 2 tracks on A and any marks that looked possible to cause audio issues with very minor background noise in quieter sections - I was pushed for time taking detailed photos this weekend but have made sure to do so under very bright lighting for transparency.
Be aware that due to time constraints this weekend I have NOT fully play-graded this record; I'll be thoroughly cleaning by hand before posting since taking the photos above and if required I can fully audio-grade in the coming week.
Rest assured that if you discover any issues with the item upon playing it, that I'm happy to accept a return providing the item is returned in the same condition it leaves me - I'll be taking detailed photos so scammers beware!
All bright/white marks visible are glare or reflection, the only marks to the sleeve are the minor staining to upper-rear.
I manage a record shop in the southeast and so have access to purpose designed packaging in order to post the item safely, but will only be doing so tracked and insured due to the value of this record.
Any further questions feel free to message me!
(Please note that given the value of the reggae market and the condition of this record, I won't be accepting anything less than a substantial offer to end this sale early - thanks for your consideration.)
