NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN GREAT CONDITION (WITH A BRILLIANT RECORD!) - AND CLEARLY HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1968 UK 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS POLYDOR LABEL, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS 'SECOND HAND' COVER (DESIGNED TO LOOK 'SECOND HAND'!)!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Polydor UK 1st Pressing from 1968 and is in GREAT condition!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is 583 045 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Polydor Label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing (there were NO Monos!)!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear, and only a VERY few light spindle marks!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 2 or 3 MEGA light hairlines, only 2 or 3 VERY light scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!!  It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, barely ANY clicks, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some VERY slight background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in SUPERB condition!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Second Hand' Cover (designed to look 'Second Hand'!) is in GREAT condition overall - and is still VERY solid & presentable with NO major defects!!!!  However although this cover was designed to look 'Second Hand' - this cover has clearly picked up some excess rubbing & ringwear as you can see from the pictures!!!!  However this really doesnt detract too much and this cover is VERY solid indeed with NO major defects AT ALL!!!!  The cover has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear (apart from some a slight touch about half way down - NOT a split!), only slight corner wear, quite a few creases (though these are almost ALL light - and the cover is still VERY flat looking!), only a thin line of laminate lifting along the spinal edge, only a small mark just below the top edge (see pictures), and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering!!!!  Even the laminated back of the cover is in GREAT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, only the usual ringwear/rubbing, a small 'price stamp' in the top right, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must MEGA STRICTLY grade Good+ (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - though it is still VERY solid & presentable, with NO major structural defects AT ALL!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!

HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!!  It really is a GREAT looking LP and it is truly rare to find any copies of this MEGA RARE LP!!!!  THIS WILL BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE TO BUY AN ORIGINAL 1968 UK MONO 1ST PRESSING OF "REALITY" BY SECOND HAND, IN GREAT CONDITION!!!!  Dont forget to take a look at all my other items including many other TOP LPs and contact me with any queries you may have.  Postal discounts for multiple buys are always available - and I guarantee to ALWAYS undercharge on postage!  Paypal, Bank Transfers, Cheques, International Money Orders, and Postal Orders accepted.
