CONDITION
RECORD ITSELF IS VG+, LOVELY WITH A DEEP GLOSSY MIRROR LIKE NEW RAINBOW SHEEN TO THE VINYL SURFACES STILL WHICH ARE CLEAN AND BRIGHT. OBVIOUSLY PLAYED MANY TIMES IN THE LAST 53 YEARS I CAN SEE A FAIR FEW HAIRLINES ON BOTH SIDES BUT NON ARE FEELABLE !! MAINLY WHEN VINYL IS TILTED, UNDER A STRONG LIGHT, NOTHING FEELABLE AT ALL !!
THEREFORE A NICE AUDIO EXPERIENCE WHEN PLAYTESTED ON MY REGA TURNTABLE, NO SKIPS OR CLICKS BUT VERY SLIGHTEST STATIC AT RUN INS AND QUIETER PARTS ONLY. A PRO CLEAN COULD POSSIBLY IMPROVE THIS ?
THE RECORD SLEEVE IS FAR FROM MINT BUT THE FIRST PRINTING WITH THE ISLAND LOGO AND TRACKLIST PRINTED IN ERROR TOO FAR TO THE LEFT ! GRADED VERY GOOD OVERALL
CORNER AND EDGE RUB PRESENT WITH AN UNCRUSHED SEAM AND SOME LAMINATE CREASES, THE SPINE IS STILL JUST LEGIBLE, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS CLEAN AND DEFINED. UNFORTUNATELY, QUITE MARKED ON BOTTOM REAR OF SLEEVE, LOOKS TO HAVE STUCK TO ANOTHER SLEEVE, AGE RELATED STAINING ON REAR OF SLEEVE (PLEASE SEE ALL PICS)
INNER IS EXCELLENT, IN FRESH CLEAN CONDITION WITH SOME VERY MILD CREASING THROUGH STORAGE ONLY
THE ISLAND PINK BULLSEYE FIRST PRESS LABELS ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION (SEE PICS) WITH JUST A FEW SPINDLE MARKS IN 53 YEARS!!! LOVELY
SO, IN CONCLUSION, A VERY RARE SUPER CONDITION UK FIRST EVER PRESS
NICE EXAMPLE OF THIS SCARCE 53-YEAR-OLD ICONIC ALBUM FROM JAN 1969
PLEASE VIEW ALL PICTURES CLOSELY AND USE ZOOM FUNCTION TO SELF ASSESS
ALSO PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER MINT RARE FIRST PRESS BEATLES, ZEPPELIN, FLOYD ETC ROCK VINYLS LISTED, FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION, GATHERED OVER 40 YEARS,
AND THANKS FOR LOOKING
