Description
BLACK SABBATH LP "Sabbath bloody Sabbath" on WWA 005 from I973. THE UK, 1st 1973 ISSUE, WITH ALL THE CHARACTERISTICS TO AUTHENTICATE THIS AS A RARE & GENUINE 1973 1st PRESSING. IT'S IN SUPERB, ALMOST UNMARKED EX+ CONDITION, WITH JUST SOME TINY FINE HAIRLINES. PLEASE REMEMBER, VERY FEW OF THIS LP ARE 1973 1st ISSUE COPIES, MOST, BY FAR THE VAST MAJORITY, WERE MADE IN 1974 OR LATER. THIS ORIGINAL, 1st ISSUE HAS BEEN IN OUR COLLECTION FROM NEW & PLAYED NO MORE THAN A VERY FEW TIMES. THERE ARE NO SPINDLE MARKS ON SUPERB, nrMINT, LIGHTLY TEXTURED BLACK & SILVER LABELS(WWA LOGO IS SILVER, NOT WHITE AS ONLY THIS EARLY 1st PRESSING HAS). THE ORIGINAL TEXTURED LYRIC INNER IS A BEAUTIFULLY CLEAN EX+, SHOWING ALMOST NO SIGNS OF WEAR. THE OUTER COVER IS EX, HAVING ONLY VERY LIGHT STORAGE & HANDLING RUBBING SHOWING ON THE GATE-FOLD OUTER SIDES. THE INNER SIDES OF THE COVER ARE ONCE AGAIN SUPERB, EX+, & THE PHOTO EXTENDS TO THE VERY EDGE AND HAS NO BORDER, WHICH MEANS THAT THIS IS A GENUINE, VERY EARLY 1st PRESSING FROM 1973. ALSO ONLY SHOWING ON RARE EARLY 1st PRESSINGS IS, ON THE BACK OF THE COVER, THERE IS NO MAKER'S NAME, JUST "Manufactured and Printed in England" IN VERY SMALL PRINT. THE GOTHIC STYLE PRINT ON THE BACK OF THE COVER TITLES ALSO EXTENDS TO THE TOP RIGHT CORNER WHERE THE CATALOGUE NUMBER IS SHOWN wwa 005 AND 'super de luxe' UNDER THAT. IT LOOKS LIKE A PRINTING MISTAKE WAS MADE ON THE SPINE(WHICH IS EXCELLENT CONDITION & HAS THE GOTHIC LETTERING) AS IT CLEARLY SAYS ' WWA 003' IN GOTHIC LETTERING ON THE FAR RIGHT SIDE . THE RECORD MATRIX Nrs. ARE : WWA OO5 1 Y v 1 and WWA 005 2 Y * 1(ONLY SEEN ON A GENUINE, VERY EARLY 1st PRESSING). THIS IS A GENUINE AND RARE, EXCELLENT+ EXAMPLE OF THIS VERY EARLY 1st ISSUE, CLASSIC BLACK SABBATH LP. ...more photos available.... EU postage= £7
