Title: Never Mind The Bollocks Here's The Sex Pistols
Label: Virgin - V 2086
Original UK first pressing of this hard to find classic vinyl record album, released in October, 1977. ORIGINAL 11 TRACK VERSION WITH BLANK BACK. Made in England.
? 1977 Virgin Records Ltd.
First UK pressing, often claimed to be 1,000 copies pressed, but that low figure is highly unlikely given both how many copies are out there and that 3 different sets of pressing plates were used in multiple configurations.
Originally planned to be released as promo only, but eventually released commercially earlier than expected due to the rushed-out French pressing being imported to UK.
Plain pink back cover, 11 tracks only.
No poster, no freebie 7" included.
Most copies are sent to France to counterattack massive UK-imports from Barclay Records. They are also sold in the UK, Scandinavia and the USA (as seen on the photos, record was imported to the US through JEM Records).
Obviously a fine example of one of the earliest first pressings. One of the nicest vinyl copies out there for sale.
SLEEVE: Light ringwear. No cutouts. No seam splits. No folds. Abrasions on the sleeve right edge and and corners along with lighter abrasions on the top/bottom edges. Light foxing. Some creasing. Corner abrasions. Name "Sullivan" written on bottom left corner/back cover. Import sticker on back cover. The sleeve grades VG. Inner paper sleeve has light ringwear, creasing, foxing and evidence of handling. No rips, tears, or seam splits.
VINYL: No spindle marks. No warping. No scratches nor scuffs. The record grades NM (M-). It is the nicest example I have ever owned.
