Description
Welcome to my auctions....check out the other vinyl listed, more added each week and follow me so you don't miss out.
My dad was a private collector, he collected thousands and thousands of records from 1950's to early 2000's, many are rarities, obscurities and some are unique, I am not a dealer, just selling the collection now he is unable to do so himself.
You can expect great service/fast dispatch/super strong packaging/combined shipping and honest, no nonsense gradings BUT Please read descriptions.
Cream – The Fresh Cream - Early 1st UK Reaction Labels – Mono - Very Rare Press - 1966 - Very rare Undocumented Sleeve, Laminated Front, Unlaminated Back, Monster rare variant with 'Printed and made by Ernest J. Day. London. Patent Pending.' Instead of the ONLY Mono sleeve believed to exist with 'Printed and made by Ernest J. Day & Co. Ltd., London, W. 1. Patent Pending' From some research I have established that this sleeve will have been one of only a few made right at the start of the 1st run and was soon changed with the correct & Co. Ltd and London W1 added, making this a super rare earliest variant - Great Condition Vinyl and Great Sleeve

Side 1 has a few faint and fine scratches, nothing that can be felt and some very faint groove marks and couple of small marks, Side 2 has a couple of faint and fine scratches and again some very faint groove marks, Apart from that, on both sides, there are some extremely light sleeve removal marks under strong artificial light, Still has a Great Shine and for near 50 years old...Great Condition. The Record has been stored for years and will benefit from a proper clean, I will let the new owner do this.
PLAYTESTED fully and it plays all the way through with no sticks, jumps or skips. The Audio Is Strong and Clear with No Lessening In Sound Quality. There is light static and the odd click in the quiet parts, which during the louder tracks is not noticable. A Really Great Listen.
Labels are clean, No wear or damage, some signs of being played under strong light (spiders legs)...see photos Great Labels
