THE SMITHS
THE QUEEN IS DEAD
ROUGH TRADE ROUGH 96 1986 1st pressing
Rough 96 A1 and written into the wax is "Fear of Manchester" which establishes it's very first off the presses credentials-awesome!!
Superb over all condition for this stunning first pressing.
The vinyl both sides is very nearly perfect but for one or two very, very faint spindle marks. I have scrutinised the vinyl both sides and it looks perfect!!!
The cover is EX+ with some very mild creasing to the very edges of the front, the spine is solid and not bent and there is no edge wear but for a very light 3mm section on the bottom of the front cover-Amazing!!
The original textured inner sleeve is EX-. with some wear to the very edges and some moderate creasing.
Please save me as a seller as I will be selling all Morrissey's LP over the next week or so including......Vauxhall and I,Your Arsenal, Southpaw Grammar and Bona Drag. They are all in better condition that this one!!!!!
This record comes from my own collection. Unless it is mint it has been played on a properly balanced Fonz CQ30 deck with a fresh Shure VN-35 diamond stylus, going through an Audiolab 8000A (highly recommended!). All that comes out of a superb pair of B&W cabinet speakers. It has always been cherished and well taken care of and it has always been stored upright in a PVC protector cover.
I include details of any blemishes there may be to the cover, inner sleeve (if present) and to the vinyl. As you will see from my feedback I am used to selling vinyl and other collector’s items on Ebay. I am well aware that detailed descriptions are essential.
I welcome inspection before the end of the auction and encourage buyers to collect from me in Bournemouth, Dorset.
All LPs are sent out in purpose built cardboard Record Mailers to minimise the risk of damage in the post.
