"MT" tax code in the run-offs
KMT tax to the label!
Vinyl: EX. Only some very light wispy marks visible. Glorious glossy sheen and FLAT...LOVELY!
CLEAR AUDIO-WITH QUIET RUN-INS TOO
Both sides sounded great, with barely any background noise-just a very gentle professional clean and she'll be even better.
Certainly no skips or jumps-still sounds great!
FLAT AND SHINY AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN
Sleeve: EX-. All ORIGINAL cover, with only a small amount of colour fading...!
The top left corner has a small patch of lifting to the laminate and there are wrinkles to the front laminate.
Remains strong quality.
The back card has just a small amount of discolouration from age-don't we all?!
Would frame incredibly well.
STRONG FLIP-BACKS.
NO RIPS OR TEARS
NO WRITING
"GARROD" credit to the back at the bottom.
Overall-A SUPERB example.
PLEASE SEE THE DETAILED IMAGES FOR YOURSELVES AND READ MY FEEDBACK FOR HONEST GRADINGS AND CUSTOMER FEEDBACK.
Labels: EX. Original first press, with:
"The Parlophone Co.LTD" Rim text.
NO "Recording First Published 1963."
NO "sold in uk" central statement.
Minimal central hole wear and just 3 or 4 very light wispy spindle marks.
To side 1, there is the raised "KMT" rare transitional cross-over tax code...not many pressings will have this little baby.
