Description

Hi, my name is Brian and I have been collecting vinyl for many years.
I am not and have never been a 'dealer' by profession, but I have always given honest descriptions and lots of clear photo's of any items I have sold. I do know how disappointing it is when you open that package and the item has been over sold with expressions such as "AWESOME" etc when the item is only in EX- condition or worse. I never ever use 'MINT' unless I have play tested the album and it is as new or it is sealed. If you are in anyway disappointed with an item from me you are most welcome to return it with a FULL REFUND, excluding postage, providing it is an honest and just mistake by myself as I believe in my descriptions.
I am happy to post any where in the world, but only if the buyer is willing to pay for it to be fully insured and tracked in some way. I only use cruciform mailers with double stiffeners and 'bubble wrap'.
SO HERE WE GO......

LABEL..................UK ORIGINAL FIRST PRESS VERTIGO SWIRL / SPIRAL
YEAR....................1972
SLEEVE......... GATEFOLD, UN-LAMINATED. This sleeve is the best I have ever seen. There are only minor faults with this wonderful item. The seems are MINT (AS NEW), the spine is very clear and has only minimal wear ALMOST MINT. The front has a couple of minor creases otherwise superb. The opening edges have no tears / splits and almost mint. There is NO unwanted writing, NO rips or tears, NO stains, only some extremely light surface rub, and NO ring wear , just a tiny bit of corner tip wear. The inner gatefold in in MINT condition with the booklet also in MINT condition and securely fastened. N/MINT.
The album is housed in an original swirl inner sleeve in superb condition(a little age discolouration). EX+.
DISK LABELS.....There is NO unwanted writing, staining, stickers, residue or tears. There are NO spindle marks on any side.MINT, MINT.
VINYL....Both sides of this wonderful record still have their JUST PRESSED deep black shine. When you hold this album in the very brightest of lights you can see almost no very faint surface hair lines which are caused by removal and replacement in and out of the inner sleeve. There are no nasty deep scratches or marks. In normal daylight this album looks PRISTINE. Both sides play WITHOUT DISTORTION or JUMPS. I have played this album on my very sensitive and revealing LINN SONDEK and the sound is UN-WORN, it is full and crisp there is NO loss of sound quality at all. There are light, very minor dust crackles, they can be heard only in the track separation areas and the run in and run out parts. This really is a great copy in great condition that any collector or investor would be delighted to add to their collection, a real KEEPER. N/MINT, N/MINT.
HARD TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION,
DO NOT MISS THIS, IT COULD BE YOUR ONE AND ONLY CHANCE.
