Description

From Genesis to Revelation, Decca red Mono album, 1st ever album, LK4990 Genesis

After about 35 years of collecting Genesis records, I've decided it's time to sell off some of my rarities. I have many very rare Genesis records and will be selling them off gradually over the coming months, and I'm listing about a dozen or so items this week.
This item will need no introduction to Genesis collectors. It is the maga rare 1st release of the first ever Genesis album, which is hardly ever offered for sale from 1969.
When I purchased this many years ago it was the most expensive record purchase I had ever made at the time.
This is the rarest version - the Mono version. It's a different mix to the stereo release. Very few copies were sold for a variety of reasons, but as there was a stereo version released at the same time, it outsold this version considerably.
It has the red unboxed logo Decca label and comes complete with the red lyric sheet.
What is also so good about this record is that the disc itself is in near mint condition. Some spindle marks to centre of label but paper label centre intact. Marix numbers are ARL-8839.P1B AND ARL-8840.P1B. Housed in original red Mono sleeve with solid red border. Lyric sheet is in great condition. It's the best condition mono version of this album that I've seen (admittedly, I've only ever handled 3 copies of the mono album, but that's 3 more than most people!).
Sleeve is gloss laminated to front and spine as issued. Matt reverse with hole to show whether mono or stereo as issued. Condition is very good. Has some signs of wear which I've tried to catch in the photographs.
Payment: Paypal or personal cheque from UK bank (will not be despached until fully cleared). Payment within 48hrs please unless prior arrangement made.
Postage: Will be signed for delivery only. UK: £4.50 Europe: £10.50 Rst of World: £13.50
