Condition:
Beautiful condition. This is an EXCELLENT PLUS player and looker in a EXCELLENT PLUS sleeve. The disc surface has a real mirror-like deep gloss without marks in natural daylight and under a strong direct halogen spotlight only an odd light hairline at most. There is no warping to the disc and it sits completely flat on the turntable. The labels are clean of writing and have a bright and sharp print colour all the way to the centre hole. The playback is fantastic. The long intros and quiet passages play relatively quietly and without loud obtrusive pops, repeat clicks, hiss or distortion and only the faintest background static in som places. EXCELLENT PLUS! The cover is also in fantastic condition, bright clean front without ring wear, marks or stains. The spine is sharp, fully readable and without wear all the way along to the corners. PLEASE NOTE: The bottom edge has a small section of wear that looks like a split but does not show any splitting when viewed from the inside and against a strong light. The back is bright white and clean, no stains, foxing, marks, or pen. EXCELLENT PLUS! Complete with its original thick card die-cut printed lyrics inner which is EXCELLENT PLUS, thick 1st press post card EXCELLENT PLUS, and thick ink-black 1st press shrink wrap with large title sticker on front. This comprises both a fantastic listening & also collectors condition complete 1st UK press of Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here from its original release date of September 12th 1975.
