Description

PLEASE READ FIRST!

Please be aware that I VISUALLY GRADE my records as I do not have access to a record player. I cannot guarantee that discs will be click, skip and noise free (although any marks that may cause such problems will be highlighted in the description).

All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.

THE HOLLIES - Butterfly
Original 1967 Stereo Parlophone 1st Press!

On offer here is an original UK Parlophone stereo issue of the Hollies album Butterfly.

A psychedelic album that followed on from their previous album Evolution. However, sales for this album were dismal, barely any sold (the extremely low stampers on this copy also suggest this) and the album completely failed to chart, making original copies of this album very hard to find!

Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.

Title Butterfly Group The Hollies Format Stereo Year of Release 1967 Catalogue Number PCS 7039 Label Yellow / Black Parlophone with 'Gramophone' rimtext and Sold in UK Tax Code on Disc KT Sleeve Manufacturer Garrod & Lofthouse Side 1 Matrix Number YEX 659-1 Side 2 Matrix Number YEX 660-2 Side 1 Stampers 1 / O Side 2 Stampers 1 / P Sleeve Condition The sleeve is in VG+/EX- condition. The sleeve, overall, is looking very nice with a clean, colour front and no splits or tears in any of the seams or the spine. The back looks to have a little light discolouration and yellowing but this is pretty minimal. Overall looking very decent! Inner Sleeve Condition The inner sleeve is in G+ condition. Looking okay but has splits in each side seam Inserts Condition - Disc Condition
(VISUALLY GRADED) The disc is in EX condition. The disc has a really nice, sharp, clean shine to it and just some light scuffing - a little moreso on side 1, but overall looking really decent for its age! Label Condition The labels are in NM- condition. Both labels are clean with no writing, marks, tears or anything. Both looking wonderfully clear with just a hint of barely visible spindlewear and barely a hint of whitening around the centrehole.

All records have been visually graded under a strong, 125W natural light desk lamp.

Records are posted out tracked and insured (where applicable) to comply with eBay and PayPal seller protection policy.

The P+P costs given on each auction are for that auction only. If you win more than one auction please wait until I've
sent you out an amended invoice to combine postage.

All LPs will be mailed out in a strong, corrugated cardboard LP mailing box with the LP outside the sleeve and extra
sheets of corrugated cardboard will be used where applicable.

My Vinyl Grading:

MINT No true preowned disc can be mint. The highest I will ever grade a disc is NM+/M- if it looks untouched and unplayed, but the MINT description will only be for records I personally know have never been played (i.e. I personally bought from new) or for copies that are still sealed. NEAR MINT (NM) For discs that look near flawless and which may have just the slightest, barely visible little whispy marks here and there. EXCELLENT (EX) For discs that still retain a brilliant, clean shine but does have some light scuffs here and there. VERY GOOD (VG) For discs that still look clean and have a nice shine to them, but do have a fair amount of light scuffmarks and/or some light scratches. GOOD (G) For discs that look like they have been loved and have a fair amount of scuffs and surface scratches. Not in terrible condition, but would look like it would play with a lot of crackle. FAIR (F) For discs that may have some life left in them but are pretty trashed with numerous surface scuffs and heavier scuffs and scratches etc POOR (P) For discs that are unplayable and look completely trashed. Discs like this would only ever be offered if they were insanely rare.
