Description
I am selling this album for a friend. All the description is my opinion and please note i am not a professional dealer. If in doubt, ask me.
This is the first edition of the album, with the full pink label and the white "i". The album number is Stereo ILPS-9111.
The gatefold outer has the tiniest signs of rubbing at the edges, but no tears or creases. The outer edges show signs of wear but the inside of the gatefold is in very good condition, once again with no creases or tears.
The inner sleeve is a bit yellowed with age and crinkled and has the stamp "made in england 17/049" I am told it is the original inner and the cellophane is undamaged.
The record itself is in very good condition with a few very fine wear marks, but no scratches. It appears almost unplayed. The shiny inner runoff has no scratches either. I have a large record collection myself, so can say this with some accuracy. The paper label inners are undamaged and have the solid pink and white "i" of the first issue. The record shows no sign of warping.
The runoff area's of the record contain these marks:
Side 1 - ILPS9111 A (triangle) 2 12 13
Side 2 - ILPS9111 B//4 13
The overall colour seems unfaded with time. The only sign of age is that the glue holding the outer sleeve together on the right hand edge has come away a bit.
Any questions, please ask. I will answer as clearly as i can. I will put more pictures up a soon as i can.
Please note it could take 4 days to post.

The owner of the record has told me to drop the reserve to £100.price rating
