THE VINYL   MINT-  INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the  1st UK  HEAVYWEIGHT PRESSING

WITH TEXTURED INNER RING ON THE LABEL-

Stored from new this LP remains in pristine condition everywhere.

CLEARLY ARCHIVED FOR DECADES. From a collection of pristine archived vinyls this is one of many we are listing all the same condition.

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age.

There is barely a hint of any whisp lines, A COUPLE of light hairlines and thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..

Some light spindle skate around the centre hole.

Some surplus wax around the hole.

On playing through we heard barely the lightest static in the dead grooves, and the very occasional dust pop that will probably not sound next time..it sounds incredible!

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

THE LABELS   MINT  FLAT MATT LABELS

THE SLEEVE     MINT-    incredible!

1st UK issued  FULL LAMINATED  sleeve  -with the TAPERED spine.

NO STICKER ON FRONT- (These came out slightly later to help sell the LP!)

 This is in simply incredible condition, quite amazing how it has survived so clean.

THE LAMINATION IS PRISTINE AND SHINES LIKE A MIRROR- WHERE MOST COPIES OF THIS LP HAVE SPIDER LINES AND BUBBLING, THIS ONE HAS REMAINED PRETTY MUCH PERFECT.

A couple of tiny spider lines on the edge only!

No  ringwear - JUST the lightest ring press on front top, and all edges are super crisp.

No tip rub or feathering anywhere

The spine edge is totally unmarked with no wear, IMMACULATE.

The open edge remains in immaculate sharp condition -superb!
