Description
I'm starting to list a collection of about 200 lps and 45s put together by my wife between about 1969 and 1984. Few of these have been played more than 2 or 3 times as, generally, they were recorded to tape and then put away. About 75% are in Near Mint store bought condition and look as if they've just been purchased. They were usually bought within a few days of being issued so, not only are they in pristine condition, they're mostly first pressings. Plus the lps all have their original inner sleeves and any inserts. The collection has remained untouched in a cupboard at my wife's parents house since she moved out and got married in 1984. If I find any blemishes or faults with any of these records I will point them out. Even the slightest shelf wear is absent from many. If you require additional photos of anything please let me know.
This is a copy of the LP Sweet Freedom by Uriah Heep, first UK pressing from 1973 on Bronze ILPS 9245.
The stamped matrix no.s are ILPS 9245 A - 1 and ILPS 9245 B - 1
The vinyl is in Excellent condition with no scuffs, scratches or other blemishes. The labels are spotless. with no stickers, writing, spindle marks scuffs or stains. There is just a tiny area of imperfection next to the spindle hole on Side One. This could possibly br a manufacturing fault.
The matt double gatefold cover, made by Robor Limited, is in Near Mint condition. There are no tears, stains, scuffs, shelf wear, stickers or writing. The spine is perfectly legible although it isn't at a perfec right angle to the cover. It slopes slightly. The cardboard is as fresh and clean as the day it left the printers. There is just one small scuff to the back near the top. A tiny amount of the white card is showing through.
The windowless white paper inner sleeve just has a bit of faint ageing / browning to the edges.
, a superb copy of a 39 year old record.
Comes from a smoke free home.
I ship in purpose-made strong cardboard mailers and I'm happy to combine multiple purchases in one parcel to save on shipping costs.
