Description
I am thinning down my record collection, it's time to let some of my rare and treasured Smiths vinyl go to new homes.
(Please see my other listings for more Smiths / Morrissey vinyl).
I have owned this record since new and it has never been played.
The Vinyl is in stunning EX+ Condition, (just a couple of very light sleeve scuffs, only visible under a bright light)
This record has never even seen a needle!
This is a rare maroon label test pressing.
Test pressings are made in very limited numbers, only a handful of these exist. They are not available for sale to the general public. They are manufactured as 'Audition Copies' to check the recording sound quality, and to make sure the record plays correctly before the general release issues are pressed.
This is a rare collectable item that needs to be in your Smiths / Morrissey collection!
