THE VINYL   MINT-   INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the early mid 70s pressing  - Stored from new this LP has seen A COUPLE OF VERY CAREFUL plays only, and remains in pristine condition everywhere. THE VINYL REALLY IS QUITE SUPERB.

IT PLAYS MINT-   WITH HARDLY A HINT OF STATIC..

AND NO POPS OR JUMPS AT ALL....STUNNING!

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is virtually no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age. The edges are silky smooth, typical of these vintage pressings. We are seing fewer and fewer copies of this LP, so rarely do we see a copy at all, let alone like this.

There are NO spider lines around the centre hole, and no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever.

There are a few tiny light whisp lines,  and thats it-  nothing else! No scratches or marks to spoil the play

 Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION.

On playing through we heard nothing bar the tiniest of lead in static in the dead grooves....this is easily as clean a copy as we have heard.

The quiet passages sound really superb..

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

THE LABELS   MINT- 1ST EDITION FLAT MATT LABELS with logo- later presses had no logo,.

THE SLEEVE     MINT -  INCREDIBLE CONDITION. 

Correct FLAT MATT GATEFOLD UK issued sleeve  - with STAPLED BOOKLET SPINE AND BRAILLE ON THE BACK -Only the first sleeves had the braille included..and later presses had no stapled book..it was loose inside.

Printer credit-  'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE'

 This is in simply incredible condition, quite amazing how it has survived so clean.

The edges are all super clean with virtually NO traces of rub on the edges

 PLUS all colours and inks remain in outstanding condition LIKE BRAND NEW!
