 Matrices: YEX 787-1 / YEX 788-1.  This copy looks fantastic and plays even better.  Vinyl conservatively graded NM (this looks new) and sleeve Ex++ (no splits, no tears, no creases, no pen marks).  This is an amazing copy that sounded incredible through my Linn Sondek/Rotel/B&W set up.  An amazing copy for your collection - quite simply the best copy I have ever seen- please don't regret missing this one.  I got this from a collector who bought this new and who really looks after his records. He would only play every copy once in order to record it onto a reel to reel BASF tape. For that reason his collection is very significant with nothing less than preserved museum pieces , unequalled in today's collector market. This is an ultimate museum quality upgrade copy and suitable for investment!! 

***This is a unique prime investment opportunity!!! Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible!!! This is  a great and seriously collectable super album!!  You will buy into a piece of  prog core history.*** 

Vinyl: NM.  A sensational vinyl!! Like it was when sold in the day 46 years ago. This is a copy which is unequalled without any hairlines, no spindle traces and barely any retraction traces. The replay: PHENOMENAL!! No background noise , no static, No skips, sticks etc. The winner will be very happy indeed with this jewel!

Sleeve: EX++.  Again the sleeve is fantastic and without any wear. A 100% spine which is fully legible. Totally unworn edges. A super crisp opening, possibly just opened two or three times in its lifespan! An impossible find in just over the counter condition. Just a tiny area of laminate lift near the opening bottom, on account of that only no NM but EX++. The flipbacks are fully intact. One of the very earliest Hipgnosis sleeves ever issued. A lovely investment grade copy.

Labels: NM!!! Unmarked. these are the very desirable large mad hatter labels.  None scarcer though than this label!! I doubt we will see this again this year or the next! There are no spindle traces at all!! The colours are beautiful and rich like just over the counter. Please look at the pics!!

Important : International postage will be registered and insured if over GBP 20.00.  These fees in England have gone up significantly last May. Please wait for my invoice before paying. Postage will be according to Royal Mail rates. Postage is NOT a money spinning exercise for me.

***This is a unique prime investment opportunity!!! Finding this classic album in any condition at all is nearly impossible!!! This is  a great and seriously collectable super album!!  You will buy into a piece of  superb prog history.*** 

This is a unique investment opportunity!!! The next prog album to go completely through the roof. Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible so late in the day. Get this while you still can. This value of the album is only going to go one way ... up and up ... until it will be totally unavailable at all for a reasonable price.

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items, I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!  PLEASE REMEMBER to contact me FIRST,  if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one!  I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem!  This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Similarly with the amount of stars, anything less than a full 5 * rating is effectively detrimental to a seller's rating as lower ratings will incur higher Final Value Fees  and lower priority in the bidlists eventually making it unattractive to list items on Ebay at all. I know of at least one major previous Ebay seller who has decided not to list via Ebay again. Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.  Thanks again!!

This an excellent investment opportunity!!! Any questions please ask me and I will try to answer soon.
