Description

I have owned this original Smiths LP from new, having bought it from a high street retailer when it was first released in UK in 1986.
The front side of the outer gatefold cover is in good condition and not damaged, and has the original pink track sticker still on it.  There is some slight rubbing and wear at the spine corner edge.
The back side of the outer gatefold cover is also in overall good condition although there is some slight rubbing and wear of the surface (dark green ink) along the top and bottom.
The inner sides of the gatefold, both left and right, are in good condition with no damage and no signs of rubbing along any edges.
The inner sleeve is printed on both sides. It is in good condition apart from the lower edge where there is a small 'rub mark' of about 3cm which I think must have been caused by the weight of the disc pressing down gently upon  that edge since 1986.
The 12" disc itself is in good condition.  The Label Code is LC5661. The extra words "Fear of Manchester" are etched onto the matrix/runout on the A side in addition to the stamped code "Rough 96 A-1U-1-/"; on the B side is etched "Them was rotten days" and there is the stamped code "rough 96 B-1U-1-/".

I have taken the pictures today using my scanner, and they are the exact item that I am selling.  
I am happy for collections in person,  and will always combine postage.  
nb:  As 12" records and LPs are lightweight but bulky to post in UK under current Royal Mail sizing/pricing, and also need wrapping carefully and properly, as well as having tracking/signed for; this is all reflected in the postage cost for this item.
If you have any questions about this item, please ask.
Thanks for looking !
