Description
I'm starting to list a collection of about 200 lps and 45s put together by my wife between about 1969 and 1984. Few of these have been played more than 2 or 3 times as, generally, they were recorded to tape and then put away. About 75% are in Near Mint store bought condition and look as if they've just been purchased. They were usually bought within a few days of being issued so, not only are they in pristine condition, they're mostly first pressings. Plus the lps all have their original inner sleeves and any inserts. The collection has remained untouched in a cupboard at my wife's parents house since she moved out and got married in 1984. If I find any blemishes or faults with any of these records I will point them out. Even the slightest shelf wear is absent from many. If you require additional photos of anything please let me know.
This is a copy of the LP Monster by Steppenwolf, UK first pressing from 1969 on Stateside SSL 5021.
The stamped matrix no.s are SSL 5021 A - 1G and SSL 5021 B - 1G The label has a black background rather than the later orange background used on later pressings.
The vinyl is in Near Mint condition with no scuffs, scratches or other blemishes. The labels are spotless with no stickers, writing, spindle marks or stains.
The laminated (on the outside) gatefold cover, printed by The E. J. Day Group, London and Bedford, is in Excellent condition. There are no tears, splits, writing, stains or shelf wear. The only blemish is a bit of ageing / browning just starting to appear round the edges.
The windowless white paper inner sleeve is perfect.
In summary
, a great copy of a 43 year old record. Drink a bottle of bourbon and start bidding.
Comes from a smoke free home.
I ship in purpose-made strong cardboard mailers and I'm happy to combine multiple purchases in one parcel to save on shipping costs.
