Description
THE SMITHS
MEGA MEGA RARE MULTICOLURED GERMAN PROMOTIONAL LP FOR THE SMITHS FIRST LP
CATALOGUE NUMBER RTD 25
RELEASED TO PROMOTE ALBUM AND LIMITED TO ONLY 500 WORLDWIDE ALTHOUGH MOST WERE DISTRIBUTED TO RECORD EXECUTIVES IN GERMANY
LIMITED EDITION NUMBER 000465
WHAT MAKES THIS PARTICULAR RECORD EXTRA SPECIAL IS THE FACT THAT IT IS MISPRESSED. THE STANDARD PROMO HAS COLOURS RADIATING OUT FROM THE CENTRE IN BANDS, SOMETIMES PURPLE (AS SHOWN IN PICTURE 5) OR SOMETIMES GREEN AND PURPLE (PICTURE 6). (THESE OTHER 2 ARE NOT FOR SALE BY THE WAY). THIS PRESSING HAS THE COLOURS MINGLED AND LOOKS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING WHEN VIEWED WITH THE LIGHT BEHIND IT. I HAVE TRIED TO DO THIS TO SHOW THE EFFECT (PICTURE 1) AND SUNLIGHT WOULD HAVE BEEN PREFERABLE. DUE TO THE FACT I LIVE IN MANCHESTER YOU WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR A DAY SOMETIME NEXT YEAR FOR ME TO SHOW YOU HOW GOOD THIS LOOKS SO YOU WILL HAVE TO TAKE MY WORD FOR IT. :-)
THIS WOULD LOOK GREAT FRAMED WITH A LIGHT BOX OF SOME SORT BEHIND IT.
THIS USUALLY COMES IN PLAIN SLEEVE AS THIS IS HOW THEY WERE ISSUED BUT THIS COPY ACTUALLY HAS A GERMAN ISSUE SLEEVE THAT HAS THE SAME CATALOGUE NUMBER AS THE PROMO

------------
VINYL APPEARS TO BE IN MINT CONDITION BUT AS I HAVE NOT PLAYED THIS RECORD IT IS DIFFICULT TO TELL. UNDER VERY BRIGHT HALOGEN LIGHTS ALL APPEARS TO BE FINE. THERE IS SOME SLIGHT SPINDLE WEAR THOUGH SO THIS HAS BEEN PLAYED AT SOME POINT. I BOUGHT THIS OFF A CHAP A WHILE BACK ALONG WITH LOTS OF OTHER ITEMS WHICH WERE ALL MINT AND HAD BEEN LOOKED AFTER EXTREMELY WELL. IF I HAD TO HAZARD A GUESS I WOULD SAY THE SAME FOR THIS RECORD.
GET YOURSELF A PIECE OF SMITHS HISTORY!
SLEEVE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION

NO RESERVE
HAPPY BIDDING!
