Description
FIRST PRESS WITH THE VERY VERY RARE MISPRESSED GATEFOLD SLEEVE!!!!
- CATALOGUE:ROLLING STONES COC 59100
- MATRIX:COC59100 A4 / B3
- 1ST PRESS NUMBERS
- ROLLING STONES RECORDS ETCHED INTO THE DEAD WAX BOTH SIDES
- TML ETCHED INTO DEAD WAX BOTH SIDES
THIS IS THE SLEEVE THAT NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN. A PRESSING ERROR ALLOWED A FEW COPIES OF THE ICONIC STICKY FINGERS TO LEAVE THE FACTORY WITH A GATEFOLD SLEEVE INSTEAD OF THE TOP OPENING SLEEVE.
IT IS CLEAR AS SOON AS YOU EXAMINE THE SLEEVE THAT IT ISN'T ONE THAT HAS HAD THE RIGHT SIDE SLIT TO LOOK LIKE A GATEFOLD, AS THERE IS NO RESIDUAL GLUE OR CARD ON THE FLIMSY TOP SURFACE. IT IS JUST A FACTORY ERROR AND ONE OF THE HARDEST STONES ALBUM TO COLLECT.
AS SOON AS YOU SEE THE BACK OF THE ZIP YOU REALISE THAT THIS WAS NEVER INTENDED TO BE AGATEFOLD SLEEVE, ALTHOUGH ON THIS YOU CAN SEE ALL OF THE ANDY WARHOL INSERT THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE ON THE STANDARD ISSUE
THERE IS A ZIP MARK ON THE UNDERPANTS.
THIS LP HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED IN YEARS, IT IS IN GREAT CONDITION WITH ONE OR 2 MARKS ON THE VINYL, ONE CAN BE FELT, THE OTHER IS JUST VISUAL
