THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH, THE GOING'S EASY, 1970 1st UK PRESS, EX HARVEST

This record has been vacuum machine cleaned and test played in full on quality hi-fi. My grading is based on the UK record collector grading system.  I will gladly combine postage on multiple items so check out my other records. Thanks

Details:- From my own personal collection - 1970 1st UK pressing on the original Harvest label 'no EMI logo', catalogue no. SHVL 783. 1st press matrix number endings A-1G, B-1G. The record comes in the original textured gatefold sleeve printed in the UK by E J Day

Vinyl Condition:-  EX Nice well looked after condition, gleaming vinyl with nothing more than sleeve brushings and very tiny fine hairlines only visible when viewed at an angle under bright light. Tiny amount of very brief mild static in the intro of side two but this is gone in less than minute and is only soft background anyway. Overall the sound quality is a very decent EX.  Fully test played on Rega RP3 Deck, Rega Elicit-R Amp, Rega RS5 Speakers

Sleeve Condition:- VG+ This is a delicate sleeve that tends to show a good deal of wear so this one of the better ones. There is some wear but not as much as usually seen. There is some on the top and bottom edge, some very light speckling along the spine edge and very mild hint of partial rubbing from the rim on the back at the top and bottom of the sleeve. On the front there is very light rectangular area where a sticker has been. It can seen in the photo directly under the album title. The inside of the gatefold is clean, unmarked and without wear. The spine is crisp and fully readable.

Label Condition:- EX Nice clean labels with no wear and just a few light spindle marks.

This rare 1st UK press seldom comes up for sale in nice EX vinyl condition, dont miss your chance

 Grading Abbreviations

Grading below is as stated from UK Record Collector. I also use +/- for records that fall somewhere between a grade

The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable

The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc

The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing
