Description
HERE IS AN AUCTION FOR BOB DYLAN'S CLASSIC DOUBLE ALBUM FROM 1966.
ISSUED ON CBS RECORDS 66012 (SDDP), I THINK THIS IS A SECOND PRESSING , INDICATED BY THE SMOOTH PAPER LABELS AND DIFFERENT TYPE SET .
DEAD WAX:
DISC ONE SIDE ONE- S66012 A3 + S66021 A3
DISC ONE SIDE TWO - SDDP 66012 B1
DISC TWO SIDE THREE - SBPG 66012 C3
DISC TWO SIDE FOUR - S66012 D2
SEEMS LIKE AN UNUSUAL COMBINATION OF STAMPERS BUT I AM NO EXPERT ON SUCH THINGS. NOT SURE WHEN THIS WAS PRESSED BUT I'M GUESSING IT'S 1967 / 68.
THIS COPY HAS BEEN VERY WELL CARED FOR, KEPT UPRIGHT IN A POLYTHENE COVER FOR THE LAST 50 YEARS AS CLASSIC VINYLS LIKE THIS SHOULD BE.
ALL FOUR SIDES ARE GLEAMING AND IN SUPERB CONDITION. THERE IS A NOTICABLE HAIRLINE ON SIDE TWO DISC ONE BUT IT'S ENTIRELY SUPERFICIAL AND HAS NO EFFECT ON PLAY WHATSOEVER . THE OTHER THREE SIDES HAVE THE ODD WHISPY MARK THAT IS ONLY VISIBLE ON VERY CLOSE INSPECTION. ALL FOUR SIDES GRADED AS EXCELLENT+.
THE FIRST THREE LABELS ARE EXCELLENT WITH MINOR SPINDLE TRAILS. SIDE FOUR HOWEVER , HAS NONE SO SIDE THREE HAS CLEARLY HARDLY BEEN PLAYED.
AUDIO ON ALL TRACKS IS SUPERB WITH NO CLICKS , POPS OR ANYTHING TO SPOIL THE MUSIC.
THE OUTER LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER IS IN LOVELY CONDITION. THERE ARE NO CREASES OF NOTE, JUST A SOLITARY HALF MOON ON THE BACK AT THE BOTTOM OF DYLAN'S COAT. HARDLY ANY WEAR TO THE OPENINGS OF THE POCKETS, CORNERS STILL PRETTY SHARP. THE SPINE IS STRONG , STRAIGHT , ALL TEXT & LAMINATE INTACT.
THE INSIDE HAS NINE PHOTOGRAPHS. NOT MUCH TO FAULT, JUST SOME VERY LIGHT AGE SPOTS IN THE WHITE AREAS ABOVE AND BELOW THE PICTURES. THERE IS A SINGLE FINGER PRINT ABOUT THE MIDDLE BOTTOM OF THE RIGHT SIDE ( SEE PICTURE).
IN SUMMARY THE COVER EASILY GRADES AS EXCELLENT.
THE TWO CBS INNER SLEEVES ARE A LITTLE FADED WITH LIGHT WEAR BUT NO SPLITS OR WRITING, JUST A 1CM TEAR NEAR THE OPENING OF ONE OF THEM.
A SUPERB COPY OF ONE OF DYLAN'S FINEST WORKS. YOU WILL NOT FIND MANY BETTER THAN THIS.
WORLDWIDE POSTAGE IS AVAILABLE BY TRACKED MAIL ONLY.
MANY THANKS FOR LOOKING, ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK.
