Description
This is a stunning and totally complete UK original first pressing of the 'Houses Of The Holy' LP
Atlantic K 50014
A2 / B2 matrix numbers
Original first pressing orange and green labels. The original pressings of this LP have the 'All rights etc...' label text starting at the '9 o-clock' position and reading antclockwise to the '3 o-clock' position. This text is therefore wholly contained beneath the white central band. All later pressings have text which spreads above the white band at both edges. Not a lot of people know that.....!
Original first pressing gatefold sleeve with absolutely no text at all.
Original white textured inner lyric sleeve.
Original wrap-around 'obi' title band - Complete and intact! These title bands never turn up. I haven't seen another copy of this LP still with its original title band for years!
The gatefold sleeve is in stunning mint condition - Totally perfect and as new! Better sleeves just don't exist!
The original inner sleeve is also perfect with no splits and just the tiniest amount of minor storage wear.
The original 'obi' (and this IS the original; it has NOT been replaced with an obi from a later pressing) is as new except for a small amount of wear to the edges and a tiny amount of extremely light creasing. This band has not been split or folded.
The record itself has only been played a few times since new and is in really great, near mint condition. Perfect except for a few very light surface marks.
Complete UK 1st pressings of this LP just never turn up. You won't find a better one than this!
IMPORTANT NOTE!!!!! - Postage and packing is additional to the final auction price. A guide to postage charges is included below. PLEASE do not pay me before I have sent you an invoice with the total price including postage and insurance (where necessary). Thanks!
