Description

I have collected records since I was very young, however Iincreasingly I have realised that I have far too many, and soI have been slowly trying to rationalise my extensive collection over the years, I have sold many major rarities over the years, from major BEATLES and 60s rarities, through PUNK and PROG ROCK, CLASSICAL and BLUES. Basically I've had alot of very rare records and in dribs and drabs have sold them off. I've never had negative feedback, and had many repeat customers.
I will only post completely insured and tracked.

Here we have a very, very rare, though albeit subtle variation, truly very rare! In later 1968 the tax codes were phased out due to the Resale Price Conditions being reformed, as such records after this date didn't necessairly need to display a tax code (however some still did), as I'm sure you know many later 60s pressings of earlier 60s titles are the very rarest, most sought after there are, and this is one such title. Yes the ones missing the Sold In UK text are more odd looking and therefore scream out "collect me I'm strange!",and the solid centres too! But I'd argue that in my experience these are comparable in rarity, even if they don't at first glance look as stand-out-ish! Standard Upper-case Parlophone rims were still being used up, but absolutely no central tax code embossed on the 4-prong central disc. Very rare, very subtle and very interesting!
Record Condition: NM even under the most extreme scrutiny this record is incredible, and shows only a few absolute featherlight withdrawal-style paperlines, really as fresh as you can get,having withdrawn it from a paper sleeve! Incredible! Labels Condition: EX+ no spindle trails, no stains, no graffiti (obviously), but just one tiny white mark at 1 o,clock, could be something stuck,or a tiny abbrasion,either wayI don't want to risk removing it in case I aggrivate it!
