PINK FLOYD PIPER AT THE GATES OF DAWN 12" ALBUM
UK ISSUE
COLUMBIA RECORDS 3RD ISSUE.
YAX 3419-1 YAX3420-1
The Record itself is VISUALLY graded as GOOD + I can see quite a few scratches that would/could affect playback. 1 scratch on side 2 is especially rough to the touch and could cause distortion or jumping.
The labels are clean with some indication of use.
The inner is in Very Good Condition, but may not be the original factory inner.
The Sleeve is also in Good + condition with minor bumps on the corners and the spine being clearly legible.
The sleeve has indents, from people who have written while using it as a rest. Below is the pasted version of the Pink Floyd Archives listing showing this pressing in Bold.

Made in GT Britain.Please note I am no Vinyl expert but I am starting to fall for the lure of Vinyl, I am currently saving for my first player and therefore all grading is done under strong light only. The records themselves are inherited through various family members who no longer deem it a format of choice.
I will try to answer any questions posed, to the best of my ability.
Please note that all items will be carefully packaged and only sent using recorded delivery.
Also please note that the condition of this and any other Vinyl I will list will not all of a sudden turn into a MINT copy in the post.
I do only grade using mint if an item is not played or still in its wrapper. Cheapest by far on EBAY in this condition!!
