Description
*I am currently selling a collection of Heavy Metal and rock LPs, predominantly from the late 70’s to the early 90’s but with the odd outlier thrown in. All well looked after and some real rarities. I combine shipping and always remove the vinyl from the sleeve before packing and posting. Where anything other than a generic white inner is present, the vinyl is always placed in a brand new white inner to preserve the original. Brand new ‘clear glass’ plastic sleeves are added to all LPs. I describe items accurately as I know how disappointing it is to receive a much anticipated record where flaws have been glossed over or gone unmentioned. I try to listen to each record before describing it but if I don’t have time I will listen to selected parts to gauge the level of background noise and I will always listen to any passages where there are surface marks to judge the impact these have. I always give positive feedback after payment so the customer is able to give feedback purely judged on the service once they have received the item. If you are unhappy in any way I will refund with no questions asked. Thank you for your interest in this listing and please check out my other records.*
- This week I am listing a number of Iron Maiden 1980’s 1st UK presses in Excellent condition and most of which include the sought after MERCH inserts. Check out my other auctions for more classic Maiden!-
This Listing:
Iron Maiden
Powerslave
EMI 1984 Power 1
Lovely copy of Maiden’s fifth album in as many years! This copy is in Excellent condition throughout. A first UK press in textured sleeve, inner with rounded corners and the sough after merchandise leaflet.
The sleeve is Excellent with only minimal signs of handling/storage wear. The textured card used retains a stunning vibrancy. the inner with rounded corners is Near Mint - a great example. The vinyl plays beautifully despite a couple of visible surface marks on side 2. These don’t affect play and the overall audio remains Near Mint. The Matrices are A1 B1. I’ve not seen A1 B1 matrices before and presumably it makes this the first ever pressing.
The merchandise leaflet has a small area of creasing with two short closed tears. There is some light spotting in evidence but overall a sound example (see photos)
Here is the pressing info:
