Description

Continuing to sell my entire vinyl collection...........

I visually grade mostly, as almost all the records I am listing I have never played since buying them, some over 30 years ago. Sometimes I will play using a Naim/Ortofon/Rega setup.
In The Court of the Crimson King - King Crimson. On UK Island ILPS 9111.  It's the 3rd UK press on early pink rim Island, before EMI took over the pressing and distribution. From around 1970. 
Catalog no: ILPS 911 on label and spine. ILPS-9111 on inside gatefold.
I have played this LP through for the first time since I bought it about 30 years ago and it sounds great. Mostly just hairlines present from the sleeve. A couple of surface marks but plays superbly. No jumps or clicks. VG++ 
The unlaminated gatefold sleeve is in truly superb condition - it's hard to believe it's nearly 50 years old. 8 sharp corners an almost good as new spine. The very slightest of scuffing to the corners of the spine starting if I am being really picky. No ringwear. EX-
Plain plastic-lined white inner which I believe is original. U.K. Patent No. 1,072,844. Foreign Patents Pending.
Runouts:

  • ILPS+9111+A3 PORKY
  • ILPS9111+B3 PECKO


I start all my auctions at £1.00. I don't see any point in higher starting prices. I don't do Buy It Now auctions, or stop auctions early at anyone's request. So no need to ask.
I have my vinyl in Sweden and periodically take back to the UK to post. My next posting period is 8/9th December. 
I combine shipping and pack in mailers with stiffeners. 
Royal Mail postage from UK (note this packet is, unfortunately over 500g in weight)
To UK £4.50 signed for 2nd class. Special delivery for this LP would be £9.00 if requested. To rest of Europe £12.80 tracked and signed To USA £16.00 tracked and signed To rest of world £17.50 signed
If the buyer is in Sweden I can post for £7.00 (from Sweden)
*** Note regarding dispatch *** Will be posted from the UK 9/10th December
