RINGO STARR "SCOUSE THE MOUSE"
ORIGINAL AND RARE 1977 UK POLYDOR 1ST PRESSING.
RELEASED DECEMBER 1977 "SCOUSE THE MOUSE" WAS THE SECOND GUEST APPEARANCE STARR MADE ON A CONCEPT ALBUM, ON THIS ALBUM STARR FEATURES IN THE TITLE ROLE.
WRITTEN BY VETERAN BRITISH ACTOR DONALD PLEASANCE WHO ALSO NARRATES ON THE ALBUM, THE ALBUM ALSO FETAURES ADAM FAITH AND BARBARA DICKINSON.
THE ALBUM WAS RELEASED IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN ILLUSTRATED BOOK, THE ORIGINAL ISSUES OF THE ALBUM CONTAINED A SPECIAL "PAINT AND COLOUR" COMPETITION INSERT, THIS WAS INTENDED FOR CHILDREN TO COMPLETE THE INSERT AND THEN SEND IT AWAY TO BE INCLUDED IN A COMPETITION TO WIN ONE OF 200 LIMITED COPIES OF THE "SCOUSE THE MOUSE" BOOK.
THESE INSERTS WHERE ORIGINALLY EITHER DISCARED OR WHERE COMPLETED AND RETURNED AS ENTRIES INTO THE COMPETITION,THEREFORE NOT MANY SURVIVE TODAY AND TO FIND THIS ALBUM FULLY COMPLETE WITH THIS ORIGINAL INSERT IS EXTREMELY HARD. THESE FULLY COMPLETE ALBUMS ARE NOW ONE OF THE HARDEST OF ALL RINGO STARR'S ORIGINAL UK RELEASES TO OBTAIN.
WE ARE THEREFORE DELIGHTED TO OFFER FOR SALE THIS COMPLETE EXAMPLE WHICH IS IN OVERALL STUNNING CONDITION AND WHICH INCLUDES A NEAR MINT INSERT AND OFFERS NEAR MINT AND PLAYED ONCE LABELS AND VINYL.
POLYDOR 2480 489
THE RED POLYDOR LABELS ARE IN NEAR PRISTINE AND LIKE NEW CONDITION, DISPLAYING JUST ONE VERY TINY SPINDLE MARK TO EITHER SIDE THE LABELS ARE SPOTLESSLY CLEAN, BRIGHT AND VERY VERY VIVID. ALL LETTERING IS PERFECT AND UN-SPOILT. THE LABELS DISPLAY NO AGEING AND ARE PERFECT.
THE GLOSSY VINYL IS EQUALLY AS GOOD, CLEARLY ONLY EVER PLAYED ONCE, IN NORMAL DAYLIGHT THIS LOOKS MINT AND ONLY CLOSE INSPECTION UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT REVEALS JUST THE ODD TINY HANDLING MARK. THE PERFECT VINYL LIES FLAT WITH NO WARPING OR OTHER IMPERFECTIONS AND AGAIN APPEARS LIKE NEW.
THE WHITE INNER IS SUPERB WITH JUST VERY VERY LIGHT SIGNS OF AGE OR HANDLING AND IT STILL HAS ITS ORIGINAL SHOP STICKER PERFECTLY ADHERED TO THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER.
THE VERY RARE COMPETITION INSERT IS NEAR MINT, I DOUBT THIS HAS EVER REALLY BEEN REMOVED FROM THE SLEEVE OVER THE YEARS AND THEREFORE IT IS VERY MUCH LIKE NEW. STILL PERFECTLY BRIGHT WHITE AND WITH NO FADING, YELLOWING OR CREASES THE INSERT IS OF COURSE UNUSED AND IS STILL PERFECTLY FLAT.
THE OUTER, STICKERED SLEEVE IS STUNNING, DISPLAYING JUST THE ODD VERY TINY LIGHT CREASE AND EDGE WRINKLE THE SLEEVE IS FIRM AND RIGID. ALL TEXT AND COLOURING IS PERFECT WITH NO WEAR OR FADING. THE SPINE IS STRONG AND RIGID.
