PINK FLOYD THE    DARK SIDE OF THE MOON
^______________ __________________ _____________________ _________________________ ___________________________ ______________________________

VERY EARLY A3 B2 PRESS WITH AMAZING CRYSTAL CLEAR AUDIO, FULLY COMPLETE WITH CORRECT POSTERS, POST CARDS AND INNER !!!!
THE VERY EARLIEST 1ST PRESS HAD A MATRIX OF A2 B2, AND HAD, 'THE GRAMOPHONE Co LTD', RIM TEXT, ALSO THE LABELS HAD A SOLID BLUE TRIANGLE. THE NEXT MATRIX WAS A3 B2, AND ALSO WITH, 'THE GRAMOPHONE Co Ltd' RIM TEXT, BUT NOT THE SOLID BLUE TRIANGLE ON THE LABELS. THE ONE LISTED BELOW IS AN A3 B2, SO VERY EARLY PRESS AND YOU CAN TELL BY THE AUDIO CLARITY. THIS ALSO HAS '1  GHG' AND '4 GMH' STAMPED IN THE RUN OFFS, MAKING IT THE 4th PRESSED WITH THE A3 B2 MATRIX, SO VERY CLOSE TO THE A2 B2 PRESSINGS !!!!

NO INTRODUCTIONS NEEDED, AS I THINK YOU KNOW THEIR HISTORY !!!! THIS IS A VERY DIFFICULT LP TO FIND, WITH A VERY EARLY MATRIX PRESSING, AS NOT MANY WERE PRESSED EARLY ON !!!! THIS PLAYS OUTSTANDING AND WILL TAKE SOME BEATING !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!!!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1973 UK PRESS :: SHVL 804  A-3  ::  SHVL 804  B-2 .
STAMPED IN RUN OFFS  :: 1  GHG  ::  4 GMH .
ON THE BLACK HARVEST LABEL :: SHVL 804 .
COVER ::  ORIGINAL EARLIEST SINGLE SHEET GATEFOLD, WITH A BLUE TINT EFFECT, SO NOT THE LATER BLACK COVERS, PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE Ltd, WITH SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH SOME BITS OF RUB ON THE SPINE, AND A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS. THERE ARE SOME SMALL CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND ALSO SOME LIGHT RING WEAR ON THE BACK. STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL EARLY 'THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON' STICKER ON THE FRONT. INSIDE THE GATEFOLD NOTHING TO REPORT, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+ .
VINYL ::  PLAYS WITH NO NASTY ISSUES, AND IN FACT IS A JOY TO LISTEN TO !!!! ALL I HEARD WAS SOME VERY FAINT TICKS JUST AFTER THE START OF TRACK 2 ON SIDE 2, AND THAT'S ALL !!!! VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS VERY NICE, AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, JUST A FEW FAINT COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, A COUPLE OF SMALL TOTALLY HARMLESS FAINT MARKS, SOUND A LOT WORSE THAN THEY ACTUALLY ARE, AND A COUPLE OF TINY HAIRLINES, AND, ONE IS A BIT MORE NOTICEABLE, AT THE START OF TRACK 2 ON SIDE 2, WHERE THOSE FAINT TICKS CAN BE HEARD. SO FOR THAT ALL IMPORTANT AUDIO GRADE >>>> THE START OF TRACK 2 ON SIDE 2, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO :: VG/VG+ . ALL OF SIDE 1, AND ON SIDE 2, TRACK 1, ALL THE REST OF TRACK 2, AND ALL THE OTHER TRACKS, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO :: EX+/NEAR MINT .   
LABELS :: IN LOVELY CLEAN CONDITION, WITH SOME SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE :: EX/EX+ . 
ORIGINAL BLACK POLYLINED INNER AND POST CARDS :: NOW THERE ARE NO SEAM SPLITS OR WRITING, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW BLACK POLY LINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL. NOW FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON, AND I CERTAINLY CAN NOT REMEMBER DOING IT, BUT THE POST CARDS HAVE BEEN STUCK ON THE INNER, HOWEVER THERE IS AN EXTRA POST CARD, STILL IN ITS ORIGINAL CONDITION :: EX/EX- .
ORIGINAL POSTERS :: THERE ARE NO SPLITS HOLES, OR WRITING, NICE AND CLEAN  :: EX .

SO FULLY COMPLETE, SHAME ABOUT THE POST CARDS ON THE INNER. ALL ORIGINAL, AND A VERY EARLY A3 B2 GRAMOPHONE CO LTD RIM TEXT PRESS, AND CERTAINLY ONE NOT TO MISS !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!  ROSE.
