Cover: 1st pressing E.J. DAY laminated gatefold sleeve. Has the Mono/Stereo text in the bottom right hand corner of the inside gatefold. The outer sleeve is Excellent with no writings/doodles, no ringwear or seam splitting. Minor laminate creasing only and some wear to edges/corners/spine. The inside of the gatefold has the trademark 1st pressing E J Day laminated 'flipbacks' on both sides at the top and at the bottom. The inside is in Excellent+ condition with no writings or doodles. Comes with the plain white (non poly-lined) inner sleeve - patent no. 1,125,555.
Copy of inner lyric sheet/poster: Please note that this lyric insert is not an original but a fabulous reproduction that I had made from a Mint original. You can tell the difference from the original in 3 easy ways:- 1. It is slightly smaller than the original. 2. The background colour is more golden than orange. 3. There is a seam inside - original inserts were simply folded over and had no seam.
Vinyl: Thick first pressing vinyl. Play tested. Looks to be Good with a lot of feathering and hairlines. However, it plays much better than it looks and playback rates as VG to VG+. There is some light crackle at the beginning of both sides. No skips/jumps on my system. There is also light occasional background crackle throughout the LP- the crackle gets lighter and lighter as the LP progresses. This is a testament to these early heavy duty vinyl pressings - and being mono, the background is much less noticeable than stereo pressings.
Labels: Excellent. Has the tell-tale 1st pressing raised rim around the label's circumference. Schroeder Music Publishing Co Ltd at the base of the label.
