PINK FLOYD - THE WALL - RARE FIRST UK 1979 1ST PRESS VINYL LP SHDW 411
VINYL
Graded as EXCELLENT ++ , possibly played this 4-5 times since 1979, have other copies which I played instead. Beautiful glossy mirror like finish, really beautiful condition with only one or two non feel able marks on in total across both discs which are only visible in strong light, and have no effect at all on the superb audio experience. Amazing after 42 years !!!!

OUTER GATEFOLD SLEEVE
A VERY GOOD + grading for this sleeve is accurate. No writing on, no marks but as always slight discolouration is evident also a price sticker scar top right and a water mark on reverse (see pics) , The spine is unworn and always kept in a dust cover and stored correctly. !!!
CENTRE LABELS
All 4 sides are Near Mint with just a couple of spindle trails around the centre holes, further evidence of the very few plays in the last 52 years !!
ORIGINAL CARD LYRIC INNER SLEEVES x2
Graded as EX on one and VG+ on the other due to a side split, both very clean overall, Lovely !!!
NOTES
Inner sleeves also feature the "Wall" design with lyrics (graphics by Gerald Scarfe).
The track order on the inners is not the same as featured on the album.
Specific to the first issue sleeve:
Band members are not listed on the inside cover. It only says "Words and Music - Roger Waters. Except..." and "Produced By David Gilmour, Bob Ezrin, Roger Waters". Re-pressings added band member credits and had other minor alterations.
No bar code on the back cover.
The Wall is cream coloured, not true white. The bricks on the front cover are not aligned right to the bottom of the cover on the outside or inside.
There are two 1st pressing sleeve variants:
1. A single sheet of wrap-around cardboard with the seam across the inner top edge of the cover.
2. Two sheets of cardboard, with seams at the top and bottom of the cover. Cardboard is heavy thickness.
There are two 1st pressing lyric inner sleeve variants (Both are on thick card with rounded corners and a nine-inch thumb notch at the top):
1. Sides 2 and 4 have the catalog number of the specific record listed on a single line in the lower right corner.
2. Sides 2 and 4 have the catalog number (SHDW 411), international catalogue number (OC-158 63410), and the UK catalogue number (SHSP 4111) in the lower right corner.
