 A genuine 1st pressing of this HUGE rarity. Some sellers would say: Holy Grail !!!

Sleeve Condition:  Excellent ++

Matt flipback cover. Please see pictures. Great though fragile cover. No flaws except for very light shelf wear to the lower seam and "-10" written on the rare - see pictures. Spine is intact and fully reada. No other flaws of any kind.  

Vinyl Visual / Audio:   Near Mint / Near Mint 

All my records are cleaned on Ultra Sound Audio Desk Systeme cleaning machine prior to play-testing.

Perfect factory sheen. Beautiful. Under strong halogen light you can only see a few hardly noticeable surface dots at the end of the track S1. The record has been fully playtested prior to listing. Those dots produce only 2 clicks at the background. The record sounds truly fantastic. So rare in this condition.

Labels:  EX+/Near Mint

MERCURY labels are in perfect state. See photos. There is a large store position sticker on Side 1 with an unglued left side. Nothing else to mention except for a couple of hardly visible spindle hole traces you can only see under strong halogen light in an angled position.  JustPerfect.

Inner: Excellent

Poly-lined inner sleeve Plastic Bags Can Be Dangerous. No stains, writing or splits at all. Just a bit of age yellowing.

I`d say ultimate upgrade.

HUGE RARITY and GREAT investment grade item.
