Description
Up for sale is a classic 1973 US pressing of Pink Floyd’s "A Nice Pair" on the Harvest label. This 2LP set serves as the definitive introduction to the band's early psychedelic era, compiling their first two studio albums: The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (Record 1) and A Saucerful of Secrets (Record 2).
This particular copy is a fantastic find for collectors, featuring the "Dentistry" cover variant and premium mastering.
Key Collector Features:
Superior Mastering: This pressing features the "Wally" signature in the dead wax, indicating it was mastered by the legendary Wally Traugott at Capitol. These are widely considered the best-sounding US versions of these albums.
Runout Detail: Stamped with "MASTERED BY CAPITOL" and the distinctive Wally script (see photos).
Unique Artwork: Includes the original "Dentistry" photo on the front cover and the W.R. Phang dental office credit on the rear—details often changed in later iterations.
Original Inner Sleeves: Complete with the original blue and green "psychedelic portrait" inner sleeves.
Condition Breakdown:
Vinyl: High-gloss surfaces with minimal signs of play. The labels are the iconic Green Harvest style, showing very little spindle wear.
Cover: Sturdy gatefold jacket with crisp imagery. There is light shelf wear/edge rubbing consistent with age, but the spine is legible and the gatefold interior is clean.
Labels: Clean and bright (Catalog # SABB-11257).
