There is debate about what came first, the printed inner sleeves or this variant with the printed inserts and generic white sleeves. I was not there in '79 or was I even born at that time so I can not say but apparently this version with the printed insert was the very first pressing before they changed to the printed inner sleeves. The matrix numbers all show a very early pressing and hardly any show up for sale.
VINYL: EX/NM
Glossy vinyl on all 4 sides. Sides 1,2 & 3 are all spotless and look stunning. Side 4 has a few light paper scuffs/shuffle marks but with no affect to play, they are visible if reflected in bright light but nothing deep or nasty at all. Audio is unaffected.
SLEEVE: EX+
Beautiful condition on the sleeve. Crisp and sharp opening edges, straight edges and spine, small corner crease but nothing heavy or that noticeable. Still in its shrink wrap, nice and tight fit along with the original 'Virgin' price sticker and 'Special offer' sticker. Both inserts are super clean and crisp also. No rips or splits anywhere.
LABELS: NM
Clean labels with no rips or writing.
PAYMENT:
PAYPAL WORLDWIDE
SHIPPING:
REGISTERED MAIL ONLY.
All items are packed professionally with cruciform mails and 2 stiffeners.
Sealed items will be shipped sealed unless you request to have them opened and have the vinyl removed to avoid seam splits while in transit.
Please take a look at my other items.
Thanks for looking and happy bidding.
