Description
Welcome to my Auction for a rare copy of the original first issue of Mike Oldfield 'Tubular Bells' (the sleeve and labels were later revised/denigrated)
First Issue/Pressing - Laminated sleeve, Notting Hill address, Black & White girl/lizard labels
Catalogue number V2001 1973. Sleeve printed by E J Day Group London. Original Inner sleeve has no markings
First press Matrix markings:
Side One: V-2001-A plus JH or SH written in the dead wax;
Side Two: V-2001-B
Loads more photos available on request. All the records have been examined under strong light and play-tested on a Project Debut Carbon turntable with Ortofon Red MM cartridge stylus. All records are from my personal collection and have been well cared for. I am not a record/music dealer.
Condition: Perfect audio quality. Both sides play through without any clicks, jumps, pops or background noise. The record has not been played much at all. No spindle marks on labels. A couple of minor marks but they have no impact on the audio.
Sleeve is without shelf wear, and has no splits or tears or ring wear. Spine is strong and fully readable. Complete with original plain inner sleeve, which has tiny slit in the bottom (see photo).
Reason for selling: I need the room. Selling a chunk of my personal record collection. More to follow, especially 1980's pop, goth and Classic Prog Rock albums.
Postage: 2nd Class Royal Mail. £3.25 for single LP (includes contribution to secure packaging). Will be sent in top quality MaxStrong cardboard mailer for records.
Happy to combine postage with other records
