Description

You are bidding on probably one of the most sought after and rarest Police records and New wave / punk records.

THE POLICE FALL OUT NOTHING ACHIEVING
UK IL001 Illegal Records Re-Issue in Mega Rare Orange & Black Sleeve
Near Mint / Unplayed

The official Police Fan Club commissioned The Police's DIY debut single Fall Out to be re-pressed due to popular demand. Faulty Products pressed up a batch of 100 records, and to distinguish this re-issue from the previous re-issue release in 1979 which came in 2 different sleeves (Green & Black and Blue & Purple sleeves respectively) the pressing plant produced a special Orange and Black sleeve version, where only a 100 copies were pressed and no more was ever commissioned since, making this single an instant mega rarity. The 100 copies sold out almost immediately according to an ex-staff member at the Police Fan club.

Copies of this over the years have sold between £500 - £1000 and is probably one of the rarest DIY punk singles to come out of the new wave era single since the Sex Pistols withdrawn A&M release of God Save The Queen. This is probably one of the last surviving copies, so I hope it goes to a serious collection.

I will post this via special delivery only, where a signature is required on delivery due to how rare this is.

Good Luck

I am downsizing my collection and will be selling some rare pieces.

Sorry, some of you have asked if I will sell privately but I would like the auction to run it's course. Money is not an issue for me, so by listing this at 99p with no reserve, gives everyone a chance to win this genuine rarity - Best of Luck :)
