DAYS OF FUTURE PASSED
This is the original 1967 rare 1st MONO version
First issue sleeve with DERAM DSS inset on front artwork.
Masters ARL-8078-2W/ ARL-8079-2W
Sleeve: Very Good condition with laminated front that extends over the spine.
No handwriting or handwriting imprinting, no marks, the artwork is unblemished.
The sleeve is generally clean, it is fully intact with no tears, or repairs.
There are punchholes in the corners of the sleeve only, and record ring wear evident on the reverse of the sleeve.
Inner Sleeve: Fully functional and fully intact poly-lined original DECCA inner sleever, no rips or seam splits.
The Vinyl Disc: Very Good Condition
The surfaces are clean and smooth with a bright black gloss but have some bag rash evident near outer rim on both sides. Made of heavy vinyl from the period, it retains a lustre. There are no marks, scratches, or dinks. There is the occasional very light surface hairline which is evident under bright light with the vinyl held angled. Very Good rating.
The labels have minimal spindle line traces for a record of this age, they are quite light and hard to see. The area around the spindle hole perimeter has some wear but not too bad. The Text is clear and bright, BIEM and NCB boxed and on the left side. MADE IN ENGLAND BY THE DECCA RECORD CO. LTD. centred.
Side 1 Mother/ Stamper : 1 / A
Side 2 Mother/ Stamper : 1/ H
- 1st Press
The Audio: Very Good +/ Excellent -
The record plays smoothly from start to finish with a small amount of lessening in the original sound quality; there is a little background pick-up noise on the long soundless introduction to either side but sails through on both sides with crisp clear sound with only the occasional light static tick. Nothing that overcomes such as pops, clicks, and obviously no skips, stops or anything else that would detract such as constant background hiss etc.
