Welcome To The Gurt Box Of Frogs, Vinyl Collection,
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here (1975 UK 1st Pressing) SHVL 814 | True First State
💡 Why Buy This Specific Copy?
If you are a Pink Floyd collector or a vinyl enthusiast, here is why this particular record deserves a spot on your shelf:
- An Affordable Entry to a Legendary Pressing: True UK first pressings of this album in flawless "Near Mint" condition regularly command hundreds of pounds. This listing offers a rare opportunity to own a 100% authentic, definitive 1st state copy at a fraction of the price.
- Professionally Deep-Cleaned: Unlike many "barn find" or charity shop records that are covered in decades of damaging grease and dust, this vinyl has undergone a rigorous, multi-stage professional restoration. The ultrasonic and rotational brush baths ensure that any noise you hear is simply honest wear on the groove walls, not embedded dirt.
- Guaranteed Playable: You won't have to worry about the frustration of a skipping needle. This record has been fully play-tested and is guaranteed to play straight through without a single skip or stick. It is a perfect, honest "player's copy."
- Side 1 Matrix: SHVL 814 A-4
- Side 1 Mother/Stamper Info: LAD XHTM 1.
- Side 2 Matrix: SHVL 814 B-10
- Side 2 Mother/Stamper Info: 5 ATM 11 1.1 XG
- Outer Sleeve: Original "pinched" spine garment sleeve (pinches flat at the very top and bottom edges).
- Inner Sleeve: Original heavy card-stock inner sleeve featuring the iconic 4 rounded corners and distinct top-opening notch (printed by Garrod & Lofthouse).
- Please Note: The original diving man postcard is NOT included with this copy.
- Visual: The vinyl surface shows numerous marks and hairlines under bright light.
- Cleaning History: It has been aggressively and professionally cleaned using a multi-stage process, including an ultrasound clean, a rotational brush bath, and a deck brush treatment to pull out as much deep-seated debris as possible.
- Audio Playback: It plays all the way through from start to finish with absolutely no skips, jumps, or sticking. There is noticeable background crackle present throughout the playback, which is most prominent during the quiet ambient and synth sections (such as the intro to Shine On You Crazy Diamond). Ideal for someone who wants an affordable, non-skipping original UK first press to play.
- Outer Sleeve: Shows general shelf and surface wear, but the structure is solid and the "pinched" spine remains distinct.
- Inner Sleeve: The heavy card inner sleeve is mostly intact, but features a small 1.5cm tear at the top opening notch.
- UK Shipping: Sent via Royal Mail Tracked.
- International Shipping: Available via eBay's Global Shipping Programme.
