A match with this listing on Discogs - /release/2655031-Pink-Floyd-The-Dark-Side-Of-The-Moon Second Issue.
These copies were produced for a short time only, between first pressing and first repress, featuring earliest use of the new black Harvest "blue outline prism" label design. These early transitional pressings, still have on labels the rim text starting as "The Gramophone Co. Ltd", and have been found with vinyl matrix A2/B2 or A3/B2 or A3/B3.
Gatefold cover of these copies come with two shade of color: very dark blue or black. Many copies have been released with a sticker on front, although some do not have it. The front cover has two different types of front openings: - The right front opening of the gatefold cover is sealed with the two sides glued together. - The right front opening of the gatefold cover is not sealed. Rear top right corner has the text (IE 064 o 05249) between SHVL 804 and "stereo" centered (later copies have it left aligned).
Original set includes two A2-sized posters and 2 stickers. Stickers have two different types of text on the back: - "FasPrint Permanent" & "Crack Back Patented". - "Permanent".
THIS COPY: Matrix / Runout (Runout, side A): SHVL 804 A-3 1 LL Matrix / Runout (Runout, side B): SHVL 804 B-3 1 MG
The Gatefold sleeve is very nice inside and front - nice purpley colour hype sticker. Has a little handling and storage = wear around edges and a split to spine - excellent inside
The 2 posters are in great condition, just a few folds/creases - see photos
Labels have a little cracking dead centre from use, and a few light signs of past use
Vinyl has a slight warp , but this does not impact how it plays and both sides are very clean, only very light marks/ signs of past usage , looks very good.
Plays through really well; the powerful bits stand out as excellent; there is an odd bit of light crackle, no skips - still a fantastic listen!
From original year of release A3/B3 matrix numbers and 1/1 mothers - very nice player
