Description

COCTEAU TWINS Blue Bell Knoll 4AD FIRST ISSUE TRI-FOLD SLEEVE VINYL N/M

Cocteau Twins, Blue Bell Knoll.

UK pressed 4AD Records LP, CAD 807.

Original pressing with black poly-lined inner sleeve and tri-fold matt exterior sleeve.

Labels are plain black with white print and feature earliest A1/B1 matrix suffixes.

Vinyl near mint. No spider trail marks are visible around the spindle areas and the labels are clean as new and undefaced. Vinyl surfaces are glossy as new, and even with the aid of a magnifying glass I can detect no marks to the surfaces.

Inner sleeve EX. No seam splits or tears and just a fraction of corner creasing. There is some gentle undulation type rippling to the sleeve as a whole, but this appears to be as issued.

The exterior sleeve is not mint but has survived in very clean condition for a fragile sleeve of this nature and easily grades at top end VG plus. No marks, stickers or surface loss. The white front panel has a very tint scuff mark to centre of right hand, and just a touch of darkening to extremities. The rear and interior panels are very clean and unmarked. The partial fold-over front flap is in good shape and uncreased, with crisp unworn edges. The titled spine is to the right hand side and is in excellent condition. The left hand spine is similarly clean and unworn, although has whitening to joints. The top left hinge has become a little worn and whitened. There is just a tad of aurface layer peeling in this area, but no tearing. The top right hand tip is very slightly knocked. Else tips are still in very good shape.

Overall a very well preserved example of this earliest pressing.
