About This Record.  This is a VERY rare Very 1st pressing original USA PROMO copy of Lightning Hopkin's LP entitled "Free Form Patterns"that was released in 1968 on the International Artists label between some 13th Floor Elevators LPs and some Red Crayola LPs.  This rarely turns up and is in top shape as well.  Top electric psychedelic blues released by our IA friends that just never turns up in original format, like this.  The cover weighs 120 grams, and the vinyl weighs 128 grams, like all rarely spotted original first pressings with "Houston, Texas" on the labels above the spindle hole.  The matrix numbers listed below are the SAME as on my stock copy of this LP that I am keeping.

The matrix numbers are:

Side One:  IA LP 6 Side 1  1B

Side Two: IA LP 6 Side 2   1B

PLEASE CHECK my Feedback which will show you my grading, Cover/Vinyl, of other LPs I have recently sold and what the lucky people who are bought them think of them and our experience. The photos of the labels or cover list the songs and any possible details about the labels. 

I offer full refund including shipping both ways (for USA and foreign buyers in case for some wildly strange reason you might be unhappy with this purchase.  Comes hand-cleaned on my VPI 16.5 Record Cleaning machine (hate those automated 17's) and placed in a new dust-free sleeve for your grandchildren.  And at least one plastic sleeves for moisture protection (for you and me).

Cover Condition: Near Mint Minus (NM-) heavy stock cardboard cover that weighs 120 grams and has just a touch of shelf/ring wear along the front cover near the spine.  Top copy otherwise except for a small piece of blue tape around the spine as shown in the photos.  Solid seams and spine on the cover.  Please See all the Photos I took.  I didn't take them for fun and frolic.

Vinyl Condition:  Excellent Plus (EX+) much better vinyl that weighs 128 grams.  Impossible to upgrade.

Labels.  Near Mint (NM) white label promo wlp Labels. Please see photos of all labels.

Inserts: Comes with original plain white (now brown) paper inner sleeve in nice shape with age mark in corner where it was folded, but no worries, this has been properly stored in a rice paper sleeve for decades and comes cleaned per below.

Packaging.  I clean all my Records on a KL Audio Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Machine so they will be ready to play, and I place in a new rice-paper equivalent sleeve so the dust does not reattach; and I separate the vinyl in its new sleeve after cleaning from the cover, and place the cover and the separately packed vinyl in at least one if not two plastic innersleeves that help protect against moisture damage during this cool records transition to your record collection.  I use sturdy carboard containers with real corners and pack with at least two insert stiffeners, and I place neon stickers on the front and back of the package indicating “Do Not Bend” and/or “Fragile” or something like that to help facilitate a safe passage.

Shipping and Payment.  PayPal only.  I ship promptly worldwide; sometimes the automatic eBay invoice does not have accurate shipping if you buy more than one LP, so if you are unsure email me and ask for an invoice. . . .  I offer full refund on this record including shipping both ways, unless you live outside North America in which case I will refund you shipping one way unless I made a mistake which I sometimes do because I am only human..  CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS:  Please add sales tax!
