**TWO VIRGINS**

**ORIGINAL 1968 APPLE UK STEREO LP 613012 IN LAMINATED COVER**

CONDITION....RECORD....NEAR EXCELLENT (EX-) ...COVER...VERY GOOD++ (VG++) (SEE BELOW)

MATRIX NUMBERS..... SAPCOR 2A-1 SAPCOR 2B-1

STAMPING CODES.... R/1 R/1 FIRST PRESS

A very hard to find original UK lp due to low sales. A lot of shops wouldn't stock this record because of the obvious nude cover.

The track listing

Side One) Two Virgins no.1 / Together / Two Virgins no.2 / Two Virgins no.3 / Two Virgins no.4 / Two Virgins no.5  Side Two) Two Virgins no.6 / Hushaby Hushaby / Two Virgins no.7 / Two Virgins no.8 / Two Virgins no.9 / Two Virgins no.10

The Cover....The cover is in good strong condition. The lamination is still very clean and shiny. There is some lamination peel to the top left corner/front, and some general creasing here and there. These covers were extremely fragile and flimsy. The pictures are sharp and unfaded, and the cover is unyellowed. The cover is graded a solid Very Good++.

The Record....The record plays well. The disc in appearance is clean but does display some light surface wear and some sleeve removal marks. There is some slight surface noise present. Not an easy record to play grade as it doesn't feature normal sounds and the recording equipment used for the lp was not of a high standard. The record is graded as near excellent condition, and a decent example.

The labels..... Both labels are graded as near mint. A couple of light spindle marks shows that the lp has not been over played. These are the dark green Apple labels with "Sold in the UK" text and track logos.

The Inner Sleeve.... This is the original Apple black inner sleeve. Some light general aging, but not as tatty as they usually turn up in as these covers are prone to serious wear. A really good strong inner sleeve. The record has now been placed in a new inner sleeve to preserve the original during transit. 

We use the UK grading system E.G. /VG / EX / MINT. We also use + and - if there are slight differences between the grades.

**All Records are sent out in plastic covers with the record placed out of the front cover to prevent the cover from getting knifed. All records are sent out in strong mailers with added protection to make sure that they reach you in the condition that they leave here in.**

**For each record or item sent out I will fill out a separate Proof of Postage slip that is date stamped with the address of the destination of the parcel. Insurance will cost extra and is highly recommended, I will not be responsible if this is not taken for items lost in the post. I also will not send to France unless registered postage is taken as it seems the postal system in France is very poor will parcels getting stolen. This is not just me that has had this problem but my friends that also that sell.

**Please note if you cannot make payment within 20 days of auction ending please do not bid as the number of non paying bidders seems to be on the increase. If  there are any problems with sending payment i.e- you on holiday please let me know. I will provide my best service at all times. If payment has not reached me within the 20 days of the auction ending the item will be relisted or sold elsewhere. I am not into giving negative feedback as I feel that this is a childish feature and not my style. It seems some people on this auction site are Trigger Happy with this feature. Check out my feedback. Thank you to most of the customers that I have dealt with in the past two years who know the score. **

** Please read this- If you have been buying from some dealers on ebay who continue to sell records that have been altered or have stickers placed over writing or to hide damage or in a much lesser condition than stated. I would rather sell the record in it's original state rather than cut out pieces of paper to hide the truth. I am also against skimming, steaming and other dirty tricks. I will playgrade all records and do all grading under a 100 watt light bulb which shows the truth. I will be continuously be placing quality items on ebay from now on as I want to build up my customer base. The only things that I want to come back are customers not records. Thank You.**

All records are visually and playgraded on sound equipment.
