Description

Up for auction:

The Smiths - Girlfriend In A Coma
UK 7" with green mispressed sleeve and 2 track listing on back.

This specific example lists at #19 on the RC June 2005 top 100 rarities list, and hardly ever (that I've seen) comes up for auction. This publication is of course almost a decade old, and as time has passed, the list has become in need of an update. Although the 3 track mispressed version is ranked more valuable, this one seems to come up far, far less. Just to be clear, this sleeve has the full green tint and not the random little slices of green that cause some sellers to pass it off as the real thing.

Condition is excellent. Less than normal wear for a sleeve becoming this old. A small corner crease to upper right (negligible) if being picky and of course the ever so slight negligible ring wear if you really beam light on it and demand finding the angle it actually reveals itself from. As you can see in the photos, these things aren't an issue at a clear, close glance. Vinyl is vg+/ex.

This example is amazing and I hate having to sell it. I doubt I will find this rarity again, so it really blows having to part with it. Desperate measures for desperate times. For your peace of mind, please feel free to return the item for up to 14 days (in its photo documented condition) if you are unsatisfied whatsoever, and i will take it as a sign to hold onto it forever. :) I ship worldwide. No reserve. Please ask for photos of anything and I will provide asap. This will be a short 3 day auction.

If you'd like only the sleeve sent I will be happy to accommodate. Just let me know at the end of auction, otherwise I will post both sleeve and vinyl.

Please check out my other auctions, which will include the Girlfriend 12" grey mispressing to accompany this one!

Thanks
