PINK FLOYD - ANIMALS
A truly excellent plus condition copy of this original UK early press Pink Floyd classic
Year/Label : 1977 UK HarvestLabel number : SHVL 815
Matrix numbers : SHVL 815 A - 5 with "H T M" hand etched on dead wax run-off / SHVL 815 B - 6
Stamper codes : 2 / 1 1
Nice thick, weighty and completely flat gleaming vinyl in overall excellent plus (EX+) condition and retaining it's original jet black sheen with just a couple of small and purely superficial wispy hairlines on each side, only detectable with close inspection under a bright light. Near mint (NM) condition labels - unmarked with not even the usual one or two small faint spindle trails - pristine and indicative of a record that has been played very sparingly. The non-laminated outer gatefold sleeve is in excellent plus (EX+) condition with firm unscuffed edges, no corner rubbing, no creasing, the trademark wine, firm, and virtually "as new" condition spine...brilliant, with the only blemishes being some sporadic light "nicks" on the reverse side and interior of the gatefold (see photos - nothing to diminish the overall truly excellent condition of this iconic gatefold). The 1st press rounded corner cardboard inner is in perfect condition except for a 2cm scuff mark at the middle of the bottom edge. The quality of the stereo audio quality is again outstanding (NM) with no background crackle or interference at all, and just two random very light and non-obvious clicks part way through B1 - close scrutiny under a bright light revealed no obvious cause so I am putting that down to dust in the grooves through decades of storage. This is the revered "Harry Moss" engineer cut with a little more bass, and it sounds great!
An excellent plus (EX+) condition copy of this Floyd classic. These early UK pressings are now becoming hard to come by and really do set the bar regarding audio quality - a "must" for any serious Pink Floyd vinyl collection. POSTAGE COSTS :
For the UK £5 using Royal Mail 1st class signed for ;
for continental Europe £14 using Royal Mail 1st class tracked and signed for,
and for the rest of the world £21 using Royal Mail 1st class tracked and signed for.
I do provide posting and packaging discounts for multiple purchases. I make no profit from postage.
Note that I always insert the vinyl(s) into a new plain white poly-lined inner sleeve in order to protect the original during postage, and separate this from the sleeve itself to prevent seam splits. I use thick cardboard stiffeners and take great care in my packaging to ensure as far as possible that these precious records reach their destination in exactly the same condition as when they leave me.
If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige.

A bit about myself : I have been collecting UK vinyl for over 52 years from a variety of sources : my own collection, friends and family, car boot and garage sales, door-to-door leaflets, and even through placing an advert in my wife's shop window! My ebay feedback speaks for itself so rest assured that you are buying from a trusted seller and in the very unlikely event that you are unhappy with your purchase just e-mail me and I will sort out the problem. I offer a "no questions asked" refund policy. If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige. There is NO RESERVE on this item. Richard
