Description

UP FOR AUCTION HERE IS A VERY SPECIAL PIECE OF DAVID BOWIE VINYL.

ULTRA RARE GERMAN 1971 ROUND COVER FOLD OUT SLEEVE VERSION. THEY JUST DONT MAKE VINYL ALBUM SLEEVES LIKE THIS ANYMORE.

I WILL TRY TO GO INTO DETAIL ABOUT THE SLEEVE FIRST. ORIGINAL MERCURY FOLD OUT SLEEVE.WHEN FOLDED OUT TO SEE IT IN IT'S GLORY,IS JUST AMAZING HOW BIG IT IS. HAS SLIGHT SHELF WEAR AT THE FOLDS BUT NOTHING THAT DETRACTS IT AWAY FOR HOW GOOD IT ACTUALLY IS. NO RIPS OR TEARS ON THIS EDITION THAT IS 37 YEARS OLD.EVEN I AM SHOWING MORE WEAR THAT IT IS! ON THE PICTURE SIDE AT 6'OCLOCK THERE IS A NAME WRITTEN IN INK, BUT WITH ALL THAT IS GOING ON IN THIS SIDE YOU CAN BEARLY SEE IT. THIS IS THE ONLY THING THAT DETRACTS THIS SUPERB ALBUM. FOLDS IN THIS SIDE ARE ABSOLUTLY CRISP AND CLEAN.

THE VINYL IS HOUSED INSIDE A NEW WHITE INNER BUT HAS THE ORIGINAL INNER ALSO. THIS RED INNER HAS THE LYRICS PRINTED ON BOTH SIDES . SLIGHT RING WEAR WHERE THE VINYL WAS HOUSED, SLIGHT RUB MARK ON ONE EDGE BUT IS INTACT.

THE VINYL HAS BEE PLAYED AND ONLY SHOWS WISPY MARKS ON THE VINYL. THERE IS NO VISIBLE SCRATCHES AND PLAYS PERFECTLY. IT IS A HEAVY WEIGHT PRESSING. THE LABELS ARE IN NEAR PERFECT CONDITION AND SHOWS VERY LITTLE SPINDLE MARKS. IN FACT I WOULD GO AS TO SAY THIS VINYL HAS HARDLY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL. I HAVE ONLY EVER PLAYED IT ONCE THROUGH AND VERY CAREFULLY AT THAT. STAMPED MATRIX NUMBERS IN THE RUN -OFF. 10 AA6338041 2Y 320.

10 AA 6338041 1Y 320.

ALSO SPECIAL ABOUT THIS VINYL EDITION IS AT THE END OF THE SUPERMEN SONG ON SIDE TWO,YOU GET AN EXTRA 4 SECONDS OF SAVIOUR MACHINE SONG THEN THE ALBUM FINISHES. THIS ALBUM EDIT IS ONLY AVALIABLE ON THIS RELEASE WHICH MAKES IT EVEN MORE IMPORTANT TO OWN, AS ONLY A HANDFUL OF THESE ALBUMS EVER GET SOLD ON THE OPEN MARKET.

OVERALL I WOULD GRADE THIS VERY SPECIAL ALBUM VG+ AND AT THAT I THINK IT COULD BE SLIGHTLY HIGHER. JUST TO SEE THIS ALBUM IN ITS GLORY IS RARE ENOUGH BUT TO ACTUALLY OWN IT HAS BEEN A PLEASURE.PERSONAL REASONS DICTATE I HAVE TO SELL IT, OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE KEPT IT BUT NEEDS MUST. I HOPE IT GOES TO A GOOD HOME, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED IN THIS ALBUM.

ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK BEFORE THE AUCTION FINISHES. I HAVE SET A RESERVE ON IT , ONLY TO PROTECT MYSELF AND FOR WHAT I THINK ITS WORTH. THIS ITEM WILL BE ONLY SENT IN THE UK AS SPECIAL DELIVERY. I  WILL USE THE SAME PACKAGING AS IT ARRIVED TO ME. I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE IN THE DELIVERY ON THIS ALBUM,I WILL HELP YOU WITH THE POST OFFICE IF THIS OCCURS, BUT I HOPE IT DOESN'T.

OVERSEAS BUYERS, IF YOU REQUEST REGISTERED DELIVERY. CAN YOU WAIT TILL I EMAIL YOU ON POSTAGE. IF THIS ITEM IS SENT ANY OTHER WAY , IT'S ON YOUR OWN RISK. SORRY BUT THATS THE WAY IT IS.

THANKS.

I HAVE BEEN ASKED WHY THE OVERSEAS SHIPPING IS SET AT £25. I HAVE ONLY SET IT AT THAT AS A GUIDE ONLY. IF YOU WANT IT SENT A CHEAPER OPTION, I WILL GET PRICE THEN EMAIL YOU, OR PAY THE £25 AND I WILL REFUND THE DIFFERENCE.
