Description.
As you can see by the Matrix Number this record is a FIRST ISSUE but not a FIRST PRESSING. (I've Noticed on some previous listings they have been referred to as first pressings, when from the stamper letters they clearly are not). From the Pink Floyd Archives this copy appears to be an 18th pressing.
I have had this record from new and it has been played quite a lot, but is still in very good condition.
RECORD: Very good minus. No nasty scatches, no pops or clicks. Only very minor hairlines and scuff marks from general use. Plays well, no skipping or sticking, some static crackling between tracks and some distortion on loud passages. The distortion may be my equipment, i only have a very modest setup.
LABELS: Very Good. No writing or tears, several spindle marks.
SLEEVE front: Very good. Condition can be seen from pictures. No tears, some creasing across top left, top right and near opening. Very minor ring wear. slight rounding of corners. Spine ok and readable. Rear: Small surface tear near opening 8cm from top, very small tear on edge of opening 7cm from botton. Also a very small mark on edge of silouette Picture.
INNER sleeve: Very good minus. Usual signs of aging, small stain on corner near opening, and a 2cm tear bottom centre where record has been dropped in.
I've tried to be as honest a possible in my description of the record. (I don't wish to spoil my 100% feedback). For a record nearly 40 years old and well played i think it is in remarkable condition.
If you are not satisfied with your purchase please contact me first before leaving negative feedback, i will be happy to give a full refund as long as it is returned in the same condition it left me and is in the same packaging.
Thanks for looking. Happy bidding.
