Description
(Harvest SHVL 805 UK LP 1972)
This is an original UK LP pressing in very nice overall condition! It has a matt sleeve which has a circular die-cut centre area. It comes with its original polythene-lined "Harvest" company inner sleeve. The record is pressed on thick vinyl & has 1st press A-3/ B-2 matrix stampers. The Harvest labels have "The Gramophone Co..." text and have one boxed "EMI" logo. It comes complete with all three Picture/ Lyric Inserts. Each band member has a picture insert.
A great early 1970's UK Hard-Rock-Prog LP. A genuine UK 1st pressing of this LP complete with all three inserts. A rare album on the collectible UK Harvest label. I have their other UK Harvest LP for sale too. So please see my other items.
Sleeve: There is thin strip of mild to more moderate rubbing wear at the top & bottom areas of the front & rear sleeve. Also, to a lesser degree at the spine areas. There is some moderate to considerable rubbing wear to the top & bottom edges. There is some light, mild or very mild rubbing wear to the spine. There is some small & light sticker residue on the front sleeve - in the top right corner. There are no seam splits. VG- condition.
Vinyl: There are some light or very mild sleeve rubs which can only be seen under a strong light. The poly-lined inner sleeve has, over time, left some light or very mild marks on a few areas. These can hardly be seen under a strong light. NEAR EX condition. The labels are in Near Excellent condition and show light or very mild spindle wear only. The polythene-lined company inner sleeve is in VG+ condition. It shows light or very mild ringwear & age related glue line staining. There is a small tear on one side. It has no seam splits.
The three Picture/ Lyric Inserts are in VG++ to Near Excellent condition. There is some light or very mild ringwear on two of them.
I have play tested this LP in its entirety & it plays Excellent to Excellent+ overall, & Near Perfect in some places. A superb audio copy!
Traceable insurance is already included in the stated P&P price for this listing.
Discount is given on P&P for multiple purchases. I shall always weigh combined purchases to get a completely accurate price. So please wait for the invoice to be sent before paying. Please see below for a more detailed description.
MINT Condition = This is as perfect a copy as you are likely to find. The cover will show no, or next to no, wear. The vinyl will be unplayed or very, very near unplayed.
NEAR MINT Condition = Nearly mint, just slightly under. There maybe some minor paper/ inner sleeve rubs that can only be seen under strong light. This disc has been played only a few times & has been extremely well cared for. The cover is nearly perfect - Minimal wear only.
EX Condition = An excellent copy will show only mild, or minor, signs of use. There will be light, or very mild, sleeve rubs that can only be seen under strong light. There may be a very small & minor hairline mark in some instances. Play will be excellent or better. There may be some light, or very light, crackle in a few quieter places. There will be no clicks or pops. The sleeve will show mild, or minor, rubbing wear & ringwear only.
NEAR EX Condition = This has been played a few more times but it has been well cared for. There will be mild sleeve rubs which can be seen under a strong light. There may be a couple of minor, or light, hairline marks. Playback will be generally excellent. There may be some light or mild crackle in some quieter places. The cover will show mild rubbing wear, ringwear or creasing
VG Condition = Most records that have been quite well played, but reasonably well cared for, tend to fit into this category. This is probably the most varied of the gradings so I have elaborated below.
There may be mild to more moderate sleeve rubs which can only be seen under a strong light. There may be a few light hairline marks but nothing too bad. A quite well played but serviceable copy. Playback will be very agreeable overall. There will be light or mild crackle in some places. There may also be a few light clicks. A more thorough description will always be on the listing. The record will certainly not be trashed!
The cover will show more noticeable signs of storage or use. There will be mild to more moderate rubbing wear on some edges There could be fading, ringwear or a minor seam split. There could be some mild creasing or mild sticker tears.
Please note that I also use "+" or "-" symbols for this grading. A plus symbol is obviously at the top end of "Very Good" & is really not far from being in "near excellent" condition. The minus symbol obviously means it is at the lower end. This will mean that it is near to being in "Good+" condition.

All records will be sent in high quality vinyl mailers with at least two card stiffeners either side of the LP or 7" Single. I use a cruciform box for larger orders (3-6 LPs). All parcels will be marked "Fragile" and dispatch time will generally be between 1-3 days after payment.
I will also remove the vinyl from the sleeve & place them in a re-sealable polythene sleeve. In order to prevent seam splits. Depending on the inner sleeve; I often remove the vinyl from the inner sleeve & place it in a separate plain paper, or polythene-lined, plain inner sleeve. I am very conscientious and careful when packaging your LP(s).
I consider my postage & packaging costs to be very transparent & very fair. Packaging costs will generally be between £0.80 to £1.50. I am not adding any further costs for handling, etc...
Sorry, I only accept Paypal, or money sent in a registered letter from overseas buyers.
Please note that I cannot reimburse payments for any uninsured items lost in the post. Sorry!
If you are uncertain about any of the above, or just simply want some information regarding any item, please do not hesitate to contact me. I welcome any questions.
