Stunning example of this super rare first press !! Probably UNPLAYED!

1) 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING - THIS ONE (ONLY A FEW HUNDRED COPIES ONLY!) -  EXISTS ONLY IN STEREO.

ONLY A FEW HUNDRED COPIES WERE EVER MADE SO THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT AT ALL - THAT THIS IS THE 'EARLIEST' & RAREST 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE!!!!

Vinyl: NM.  I'm very happy to be able to present this Canterbury gem by the legendary EGG  in this wonderful condition. The vinyl has not any marks , not any hairlines and remarkably barely any retraction traces. The audio is simply sublime played on my Technics deck with Linn Sondek cartridge and through my Rotel amp and B&W speakers.  This vinyl sounds out of this world, a majestic album that showed that really went largely under the radar. Why ...? 

   I played this through in full and thoroughly enjoyed it, indeed my most intensive listen for this week.. I was even tempted to keep this as it will be very hard to find this again, it is indeed mega rare now in this kind of condition. Needless to say NO jumps, clicks or ticks or anything untoward. This must be the best copy in existence and will be an object worthy of investment as the album is indeed mega rare. It is indeed in archive condition.

 Sleeve:  NM.  Fantastic looked after front laminated sleeve with beautiful rich colours and without any creasing.  It sits superbly flat and has a sharp crisp opening. Beautiful sharp edges, the spine is fully legible and bold. The spine is also completely square as if just bought over the counter. A beautiful original sleeve and a fantastic upgrade condition. The winner will be very pleased indeed!!  No marks, no seam splits or tears.  This is an upgrade for most psych and prog collectors and probably the very best copy in existence. As such this is surely an investment grade copy!! Please also have a look at  my other debut Egg album as well as the "Art" album.

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items, I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!  PLEASE REMEMBER to contact me FIRST,  if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one!  I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem!  This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Similarly with the amount of stars, anything less than a full 5 * rating is effectively detrimental to a seller's rating as lower ratings will incur higher Final Value Fees  and lower priority in the bidlists eventually making it unattractive to list items on Ebay at all. I know of at least one major previous Ebay seller who has decided not to list via Ebay again. Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.  Thanks again!!

This an excellent investment opportunity!!! Any questions please ask me and I will try to answer soon.
