This is the highly collectible 1974 UK "Transitional" First Pressing.This rare variant pairs the earliest, prized 1st-generation crossed-out error vinyl stampers (featuring the legendary factory-corrected YAX 4736 scribble in the dead wax) with the second-run labels that feature the Trident credit printed at the bottom. It offers the definitive, heavy-analog 1st-press sound mix that collectors chase.Condition Report:Vinyl (NM): In beautiful, pristine condition.

The vinyl retains its full original factory gloss with no visible hairlines or scuffs. It plays cleanly and powerfully across all tracks. Silent passages and quiet acoustic moments like "White Queen" are remarkably clear with no overwhelming surface noise, pops, or skips.Labels (NM): Clean, crisp cream-and-red EMI labels with no spindle wear or ink bleeding.Gatefold Sleeve (NM): Exceptional structural integrity. The laminate is smooth and glossy with sharp corners, unfrayed edges, and perfectly intact, un-split seams. The spine text is perfectly legible.Inner Sleeve (NM): Includes the original UK printed lyric inner sleeve with the characteristic diagonal-cut corners.
