Cover
The cover is the MEGA early version with the very dark faces which is also know as the ‘makeup’ cover, and it is in nigh on immaculate condition, with NO RIPS, TEARS or writing anywhere, and all the four corners are still AMAZINGLY solid and square. The opening end has minimal feathering and the spine is PRISTINE, and there are less than a handful of tiny creases in the laminate, these really are hardly noticeable (this really is so RARE to find this early cover in this AMAZING condition). The back of the cover is again nigh on PERFECT like the front, the flip back areas where so often these covers become grey, yellowed and damaged are PERFECT, and the non laminated areas still retains very much a snowy white appearance with only minimal marks at the opening end. (see scan) Graded EX+/Nr Mint
Vinyl
The heavy vinyl still retains its just pressed glossy look and under white light only faint markings are visible. It plays throughout with NO SKIPS, JUMPS or POPS. From start to finish the record plays AMAZINGLY with only very faint surface noise in the quieter parts. The Yellow & Black Parlophone labels are spotlessly clean, undamaged and writing free, and the KT tax code is still clearly visible. The stamper codes are clearly visible and reads 1R on side 1 and 1G on side 2, showing this to be one of the earliest pressings of this MEGA RARE album. GRADED a strong EX maybe higher!!

POSTAGE & PAYMENT INFORMATION
I do not make profit on my postage & packaging prices, everything is sent out in professional record mailers or mailer boxes where necessary. All album sleeves are sent in new plastic covers, and the vinyl is taken out of the sleeve and housed in a new poly-lined paper inner, all this is to ensure that you receive the album in the same condition that it left me.
ALL PAYMENTS MUST BE IN STERLING
