NOTES
To a collector, precision is everything - still, sometimes not easy to provide! Compiling HELP!'s history on German labels requires an utmost level of concentration, for it is a very complex topic.
One more rare first press, moreover, a special release, cos it is one of two Export to Switzerland variations, characterized by its label with the combined SMO/ZTOX catalog number as well as a blue squared background of the Odeon/EMI logo on upper left of cover's front side. Perimeter of label, correctly, shows "Alle Rechte..." (not "Urheberrechte..."), and as a "final proof" of its "early nature" we find that mis-print on label of Side A, stating Your'e Going To Lose That Girl.
Please see grading details for a more elaborate description of the record's condition.
IMPORTANT NOTE for GERMAN BIDDERS: Please constact us before bidding, for otherwise we will remove your bid without prior notice. This is in view of constantly recurring problems, often caused by language. It's NOT an offense. Collectors want harmony and consensus, not trouble.

1st Class Packaging
We are Collectors, hence every record is stored (and will be sent) in a sophisticated way. Many experienced collectors were thrilled by our unique, bullet-proof "packing technicque". Original cover, inner sleeve(s), prospective inserts, and/or whatever may come across, are stored separately. The vinyl sits in a neutral antistatic, padded inner sleeve, which is housed in a stable, neutral cardboard cover. Package is protected by one (or more) transparent plastic sleeves. Finally, all items are being wrapped with thick bubble foil and go to a professional record mailer, which is then being properly sealed with water-resistant tape.
(PLEASE NOTE that pictured record is an EXAMPLE only. It is NOT the item up for auction. Thank you.) Record Grading
Visual Grading Cover Front VG- Cover Back VG- Inner Sleeve(s) [N/A]
(plain) Label Side A EX- Label Side B VG Vinyl Side A EX Vinyl Side B VG Audio Grading Side A VG- Side B VG- We use superb vinyl equipment with its heart being an Ortofan Diamond System and gold plated contacts all around.
Audible checks are performed with a Pro-Ject Audio system connected to a DENON PMA 520-AE amplifier, with a Sennheiser 350 headset. Remarks As for the Cover and related issues, please refer to pictures provided right after, it's easier and more accurate than any long-told story.
Some "main points": writing on the cover's back side, upper right corner. Small rim-cut at pull-out. Yellowish stripe on right rim of front cover. All in all we have to put it VG- only.
Vinyl is shiny. Side A is fine, but there's a scratch on Side B that is clearly visible, hence EX/VG.
Regarding audio, beside bg noise, you'll hear a clear skip at The Night Before as well as pops at Act Naturally. Very sad, still, in "straight Grading language" VG-.
Please keep in mind that an opinion is bound to be subjective. Refer to pictures, provided extensively.
