Description

King Crimson LP: In The Wake Of Poseidon. 1970 UK first pressing on the PINK ISLAND label. Cat No: ILPS 9127 . A1/B1 matrix numbers on vinyl run off. Textured gatefold sleeve has small corner wear and partial edgewear. Unfortunately, there is a noticeable abrasion upper middle left (see photo). Due to this, sleeve graded VG+. Vinyl has clean labels and no spindle wear. There are a couple of hairlines on each side that are only visible when held at an angle to a bright light. Only the odd instance of barely audible light background. Vinyl graded EX+ Nice vinyl copy of this progressive rock classic.

This item has been relisted due to the previous "winner" (altered-states) not paying and even failing to communicate !!

All records graded as per Rare Record Collector Price Guide grading system. I never grade a record as Mint unless it is sealed or known to be unplayed, and add, where appropriate, + or - to the listing for further accuracy.

Grading System: In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition of second-hand records.
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

 
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump.
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

 
BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.   Any items posted to Russia or the Ukraine will only be sent with International Signed For Recorded Delivery. Please wait for invoice from these countries before paying.
