Welcome to my auctions....check out the other vinyl listed, more added each week and follow me so you don't miss out.

My dad was a private collector, he collected thousands and thousands of records from 1950's to early 2000's, many are rarities, obscurities and some are unique, I am not a dealer, just selling the collection now he is unable to do so himself.

You can expect great service/fast dispatch/super strong packaging/combined shipping and honest, no nonsense gradings BUT Please read descriptions.

Both sides are super clean, Not far off Perfect. Just a couple of extremely faint hairline/scratches on each side. Both sides look clean, shiny and it's a Stunning example of this Very Rare Earliest Pressing.

Labels both have signs of play(spiders legs) under strong light, Both labels are clean and free from the usual writing etc...see photos

Original Unlaminated Gatefold Sleeve. The front and back and inside of sleeve show NO rubbing at all with only a couple of tiny creases from spine edge, there are some indentation marks near bottom of front visible in the light. No corner wear. Light handling wear to opening edge and old tape residue stain down opening edges to front and back and inside. Spine is solid and still fully readable with very slight wear. Inside is crisp, clean and unworn...see photos...This is a Great Example of this sleeve that is Unlaminated and usually ends up rubbed and patchy.

The original Swirl Poly Lined Inner has no splits and is clean with crease to one corner and slight discolouration.

A Mega Rare and Very hard to find LP In Great Condition.

I will describe any flaws such as wear to sleeves, scuffs, marks or scratches to vinyl and describe them honestly, if you expect a better condition than I have listed then you need to learn to read. I will grade based on visual inspection under artificial light. PLEASE remember this is Vinyl...even brand new vinyl can have clicks and pops...that's part of its charm...if you want perfect audio without background noise...how about CD's or MP3's? THE RECORD IS VISUALLY DESCRIBED/GRADED, IF YOU BID YOU CONFIRM THAT YOU ARE PURCHASING THE RECORD BASED SOLELY ON THIS NOT HOW IT MAY PLAY.

ALL RECORDS ARE VISUALLY DESCRIBED AND GRADED unless it says otherwise. IF YOU DECIDE TO BID YOU ARE BIDDING ON THE VISUAL DESCRIPTION NOT ON HOW IT MAY PLAY, Even the most visually stunning record can have background noise, if you want perfect audio then please find another copy with audio gradings.

NO POSTAGE/SHIPPING TO ROMANIA

With that said....many rarities will be listed, some fair condition some near mint.

Any questions...please ask.

Premium quality cruciform record mailers will be used with 2 sheets of additional cardboard.
