Description

ATTENTION THE ROLLING STONES COLLECTORS!  HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1969 MONO 1ST ISSUE OF THE  ROLLING STONES COMPILATION ALBUM: "THROUGH THE PAST DARKLY-BIG HITS-VOL.2" WITH THE EARLIEST DESIGN UNBOXED LOGO LABELS AND HOUSED IN THE SHORT LIVED OCTAGONAL COVER AND INNER SLEEVE!

1969 DECCA LK 5019 WITH 2A/3A MATRIXES. THE MONO MIXES HAVE A GREAT "PUNCHY" SOUND AND OF COURSE MOST SERIOUS COLLECTORS WILL WANT TO OWN BOTH MONO AND STEREO EDITIONS. LOCATING A REALLY NICE MONO COPY IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN CAUSING DISTORTION AND MAJOR WEAR. THIS COPY HAS SOME SIGNS OF USE INCLUDING A COUPLE OF MARKS THAT PRODUCE A COUPLE OF SHORT LIVED CLICKS THAT ARE NOT TOO OBTRUSIVE WITH MOST OF THE DISC HAVING HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AT ALL AND SO DUE TO THE COUPLE OF CLICKS THE DISC IS STRICTLY GRADED AS VERY GOOD+++++++ CONDITION.

THICK VINYL.HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR! 

HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT OCTAGONAL SHAPED"MONO" INNER SLEEVE WHICH IS VERY CLEAN WITH NO STAINING,RIPS,WRITING OR REPAIRS! THERE IS THE "FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING" CREDIT DENOTING ONE OF THE FIRST EVER PRINTED FOR THIS LP. AS IT IS VERY THIN AND DELICATE WITH NO LINING,I HAVE ADDED A STANDARD SHAPED MONO INNER SLEEVE OF THE SAME YEAR WITH THE "FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING" CREDIT TOO!        THE LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER IS PRINTED BY GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE WITH VERY EASY TO READ SPINE DETAILS AND NO SPLITS OR DAMAGE TO WHAT IS A VERY DELICATE COVER! THERE ARE A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES BUT THERE IS NO WRITING,STAINING,RIPS OR REPAIRS.

ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF THIS COVER I HAVE EVER SEEN! 

  PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER+BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! A LOW,REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE WITH MANY MORE RARE LPs ENDING FROM ME FOR AUCTION ON EBAY WITHIN THE SAME HOUR OR SO OF THIS AUCTION ENDING.

I WOULD STRONGLY ADVISE SPECIAL DELIVERY OR INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR ON THIS RARE RECORD.

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
