Description
Artist: Rod Stewart
Title: Gasoline Alley
Details: - This is part of my Personal Collection which I have spent many years acquiring and I am gradually selling. I always purchased the best condition copies. This auction is for the UK release of Rod Stewarts LP Gasoline Alley. This was released on the collectible Vertigo Swirl/Spiral label in a `Howards Printers Slough` Gatefold with VO Price Code on rear. Very hard to find a top copy due to the fragile nature of the sleeve as you can see from the pictures this is a real Top Copy, hard to better Matrix Side 1 6360 500 1Y1 480 15 2/Side 2 6360 500 2Y1 480 15 12 `Machine Pressed shows this is a true original copy` (hand etched are replicas)
Label: Vertigo
Catalogue No: 6360 500
Year: 1970
Country: UK
Vinyl: (NM) Superb Copy, Hardly played, even under very Bright Halogen Spotlights I can just see some light sleeve removal marks, nothing feelable, plays through FAB!! Comes in original Vertigo Inner Sleeve also in top condition!
Sleeve: (NM) `Howards Printers Slough` Gatefold with Pink lettering, No bad ringwear, No bad edgewear/spinewear (very unusual for this sleeve), some slight corner wear, a great find for this rare sleeve (see photos for complete overview)
Labels: Clean Vertigo Swirl/Spiral Labels - No visible Spindle lines Hardly Played
* buy multiple items and save on postage
I use professionally made packers with card stiffeners & record removed from album cover
I use lots of photos to show as accurately as possible what you are getting (also I dont cut the corners of the record sleeve off the picture!!)
Gradings: I use the standard UK gradings as set out in Record Collector Magazine below:
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
Near Mint, EX+, VG+ etc are acceptable additions to help `fine tune` descriptions for the buyer
