I've added these few lines since I looked at the scan and noticed by some trick of the light that the lines within the PICCADILLY logo box seem to run diagonally. I can assure you that on the record they run horizontally. This record is 100% guaranteed as being completely GENUINE, ORIGINAL and AUTHENTIC.  I can't explain why the lines on the scan run in a different direction, but they do for some reason. It may just be my monitor, and hopefully your view is OK, but please don't hesitate to contact me if you have ANY questions regarding this item.

ANOTHER MONSTER FROM THE MIGHTY "QUO" VAULTS OF COLLECTORS ITEMS. This is the original 1967 ADVANCE PROMOTION COPY on the YELLOW PICCADILLY LABEL of the one and only single from THE TRAFFIC JAM. This was the bands fourth single, with the other three being released as THE SPECTRES. "ALMOST BUT NOT QUITE THERE"  is a FRANCIS ROSSI composition, with the song being credited to ROSSI and their then manager PAT BARLOW. The B-side "WAIT JUST A MINUTE" is an offering from their keyboard player ROY LYNNES. This single was apparently banned at the time of release for being "too suggestive" and didn't make it past the censors. Funny how LOU REED'S "WALK ON THE WILD SIDE" made it through 5 years later.

The condition of the disc is a solid VG. Both sides of the vinyl only have very light surface marks, visible to the naked eye, but especially when the disc is held under a bright light. The B-side label is perfectly clean, but the A-side label has 3 small initials written in the cross member of the "A". They really aren't too obtrusive, but they are there. I have supplied a scan of both labels for you to determine this for yourself. THIS IS A RARE ITEM AND DOESN'T COME UP FOR SALE VERY OFTEN. 

Here's just a little note about me, if you're unsure of who you're dealing with. I am a collector as well as a dealer and have been a professional dealer since 1980. I try to offer an excellent service to all customers and according to the feedback I have received so far I seem to be achieving this.

I try to treat everybody as fairly as possible. The deal is, if you're straight with me and get the payment to me without any messing about, then your item is sent straight away. If there is any problem of any kind, then please contact me directly and let me know. I'll try my best to sort out anything as quickly as possible.

All records are sent out in good quality packing. I only use cardboard (lots of it) and proper packing tape. I also try to send out parcels as soon as I have the payment. I always use recorded delivery or special delivery unless you ask for something else. The only thing I would like to point out is that I am not responsible for anything sent un-insured. Recorded delivery and special delivery are automatically insured against loss or damage in the post.

I would prefer all foreign customers to pay me with PayPal. I don't charge any extra for using this service. I also accept cash payments (sent by registered post only) in US DOLLARS, EURO'S, and UK STERLING POUNDS, but always contact me first for the exchange rate.

If you have any questions, then please ask, I promise I don't bite.

Many thanks for your time and I look forward to hearing from you and hope to be of service to you.

Kind Regards, Vinnie
