Description
It's time to dispose of my entire Pink Floyd collection, amassed over the past 40 years, so keep an eye out for 1st pressings, monos and stereos. And some rare 45s.
I will do my best to describe each item in full and questions are welcome. I will visually grade in bright sunlight. If I find any blemishes I will grade again after playing through a Rega RP3/Ortofon/Naim setup. I do not have headphones so of course I might miss some pops and clicks - but I want to stay on good terms with my neighbours!
I do not grade 50 + year old records as EX, even if I think they are. I can't imagine any exist as EX outside Pink Floyd's own collections or a museum. The highest I will grade is VG++.
I have not played most of the recrods I am listing. I bought them (2nd hand) from very reputable dealers and just stored them away. They might benefit from a clean - I will not be cleaning any of my records before selling them as some people have strong opinions about how to clean rare vinyl.
Syd Barrett - The Madcap Laughs - 2nd press
Harvest SHVL 765. 1970.
Second pressing.
Laminated gatefold Garrod & Lofthouse sleeve.
EMI boxed logo.
- Matrixes SHVL 765 A-2G and SHVL 765 B-3
Descritpion of labels Harvest label. Boxed EMI. Made in Gt. Britain at bottom. A few spindle marks.
Descritpion of sleeve VG+. The Garrod & Lofthouse gatefold sleeve is in very good condition. Sharp corners and an intact spine. No writing, tears, splits, scuffs. You can just make out the shape of the record on the back cover - the beginnings of ring-wear.
Description of inner Original palstic-lined EMI/Harvest inner. Complete.
I won't provide track and personnel listings - anyone bidding on these items knows anyway. Needless to say there is a strong Pink Floyd presence!
Summing up - this is a top quality example of Barrett. Not much wrong with this at all, if anything.
I start all my auctions at £1.00 - and never use Buy It Now, so please don't ask.
Will be dispatched from the UK during the first week of July, using Royal Mail tracked. This covers up to £250.00 insurable loss. If you require more insurance this will be at the purchaser's own expense. But personally I think tracked and signed for is sufficient. I am willing to combine postage.
