UK 1ST PRESS - A1/B1 MATRIX WITH 'TOWNHOUSE' ETCHING, EMC3357 ON LABEL AND SLEEVE, MADE IN ENGLAND ON SLEEVE - NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH VERY COMMON DUTCH PRESSING OR THE LATER 'FAME' REISSUE.

PLAYGRADED: not simply glanced at with a superficial visual grading, fully played and graded throughout (listened to on headphones - the most revealing playgrade method, with no exterior audio distractions)
VINYL: (STAMPED MATRICES)
TOWNHOUSE EMC 3357 A-1U 1 9 1
TOWNHOUSE EMC 3357 B-1U 3 6 2
Awesome shiny vinyl, no marks at all, barely played, looks like new! Great audio with very little background crackle or run in noise at all, one of the best examples you're likely to find. Fabulous tone and volume on this very 1st UK pressing. Plays as MINT-
LABELS:
Nice and clean with thankfully NO graffiti. Looks like NEW! Just one faint spindle trace on either side, barely played example!
OUTER SLEEVE:
'Printed in England' sleeve. With correct date code on rear bottom right hand corner of 8102 (February 1981).
Awesome condition with NO shelf wear at all, just a few light creases near spine edge and one small tear to top edge that has NOT gone through, just the very outer surface, has been coloured in black so it's not too prominent, but it needs to be mentioned for full clarity.
TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES
No visible shelf wear. Superb. A few light touch ups here and there but it looks great as a result.
OPENING EDGES
Excellent, reasonably crisp and square, barely used. Just some light thumbing to opening edge.
SPINE
Nice and square, perfectly legible. Very nice example. A few light touch ups to the black, but looks very nice indeed as a result.
INNER SLEEVE:
Original EMI inner sleeve that has had the band name and album title neatly written on one side in black.
POSTAGE AND PACKING:
I recycle as much existing material as possible and reuse record mailers if they are of good enough quality. Edges and corners are reinforced with packing tape. Stiffeners are used to strengthen and support the record.
Vinyl is removed from the outer gatefold to prevent any 'knifing' to the outer sleeve.
I ship in the UK using Royal Mail 2nd Class as it's a little cheaper for buyers. A certificate of postage is obtained for every item. Signed for delivery is available on request at extra cost. Please ask.
Feedback is left for buyers once they have contacted me and left feedback stating they are happy with their purchase. Should there be any issues, please contact me first.
I ship worldwide. Item will be shipped in board-stiffened mailers for maximum protection.
