THE VINYL   EX+ STRONG  INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the  1st  1W 1W  1973 - Stored from new this LP has seen possibly a couple of plays only, and remains in pristine condition everywhere.

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is only some very light dull streaks in a few places and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age. The edges are silky smooth, typical of these vintage pressings. We are seing fewer and fewer copies of this LP, so rarely do we see a copy at all, let alone like this.

a couple of light spider lines around the centre hole, and no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever.

There is barely a hint of any whisp lines, and thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..

IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION.

On playing through we heard nothing bar the tiniest of lead in static in the dead grooves..it sounds like new as it could be!

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

THE LABELS   MINT  FLAT MATT LABELS

THE SLEEVE     MINT-  SIMPLY PRISTINE. 

RARE  first UK issued earliest sleeve  -with the proud spine. AND GLOSS FINISH!   Most we see are flat matt with virtually no spine. Never sen this type before.

 This is in simply incredible condition, quite amazing how it has survived so clean and WHITE.

The edges are all super clean with no real traces of rub, at all , and all colours and inks remain in outstanding condition

No powdery white ringwear - some very light ring press, and all edges are super crisp.

the lightest of tip rub &  a couple of  spider lines over the edge of the spine, The spine edge is totally unmarked with no wear, just a few very tiny spider lines  over the edge!

The open edge remains in immaculate sharp condition -superb.

Some very light discolour.

We cannot add any more than this! ITS A BEAUTY!
