Description
This is an Ultra-rare AUTHENTIC (lifetime Guarantee) 2-sided 12" UK first test pressing with the Bobil/Rasputin stamper (until now, only seen on Hunky Dory) DAVID BOWIE-ZIGGY STARDUST LP. Yes, it is real and in excellent condition. See photos for the 1T Bobil BGBS 8064 and the 1T Rasputin BGBS 8065 with A1C and A1E Matrix stamps this is Ziggy Stardust NOT Hunky Dory. I will not go on and on about the importance of this LP as you can look up the other listing which just closed on Ebay today with listing number (161980749184) and read 12 pages about it from the other seller. I listed this item a few days back after reading the following from the other listing, and I quote:
"THIS PRESSING IS PRE ZIGGY.NO OTHER ZIGGY STARDUST LP ON EARTH BARES Bobil/Rasputin in the dead wax.AND I CHALLENGE YOU ALL TO THAT..The only copy in the world with these numbers making it a unique one of a kind."
I ended my listing the morning after having listed it because the other seller asked that I end my auction and relist after his auction closed. Out of consideration to him and not wanting to create a hardship for another person, I obliged and ended the auction as requested. Now I have relisted it since his auction has now closed. His auction just closed at 2,100 pounds...currently $2,911.23.
We now know there are at least (2) of this wonderfully rare record. What is so great about there being (2) "first" Test pressings is (2) individuals will be able to obtain this unknown FIRST ZIGGY UK Test pressing with the unique matrix numbers. No UK stock LP cover with this listing.
I can provide copies to the winning bidder of some correspondence that I had with a former Trident studios employee who worked there when David was recording regarding this specific pressing of this LP.
Refer to the attached photos where the reflection from my linear ceiling light can be seen on the surface of the disc. This is in excellent-condition (see detailed description and photos). This is not a perfect mint condition LP. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Lower start than the current bidding of the other copy due to lesser grading on the disc.
This has been stored with care in a protective sleeve and in a smoke-free environment since my obtaining it. Don't miss out on this. More Bowie, please inquire with specific wants.
