Hi, I started collecting vinyl Lp's and 45's in 1971, I have 20,000 + which I have moved now 4 times, and about to move again next year. So it's time to let at least half go. Most are in at least Excellent condition.  I can't listen to them all, so most will only have visual grading, any with a high start price, I will listen too, and play grade.

ALBUM INFO:

PINK FLOYD:- ...ANIMALS ... 

FINAL UPGRADE Of This "ALL TIME CLASSIC" ALBUM.

1977 JAPANESE 1st Press, 

GATEFOLD COVER:- NEAR MINT ,  VINYL:- NEAR MINT.. 

This was their 10th studio album on EMI Records released on the 23rd January 1977 PINK FLOYD'S Studio Album....ANIMALS......You would be hard pushed to see a better vinyl record, looks hardly played. With A-1-1 / B-2-1  Matrix Numbers . In 1977 most people owned CD players hence the RARITY of this CLASSIC PINK FLOYD ALBUM. This is the ORIGINAL JAPANESE 1st PRESS version... So hard to find in any playable condition, as they have been squirreled away in collections or worse thrown away. I believe that there are very few better rock albums, you would be hard pushed to find better.   

The emi gatefold sleeve is unlaminated front and back without any Major creasing, NO WRITING OR MARKS. Please take a L@@K at the photographs An opportunity to own a Mega Rare true rock classic.

SLEEVE:

Near Mint .  Look at the photo's.....Rare to find in this condition as this type of cover is prone to ring rub and storage wear, wonderfully clean unlaminated cover, remarkable consider it's age,  has no splits or tears. please look at the photos the cover is unlaminated inside and out. It has survived without picking up any staining or writing.

INNER SLEEVE:

Mint. Original paper type LYRIC SHEET, ...being the very fragile inner sleeve is a great indicator of the amount of usage the album has had. I would say the inner is the best you could find! and considering how fragile these are.....they are 37 years old, quite unbelievable intact condition.  

LABELS:

Clean, light spindle marks, no damage.   

GRADING SYSTEM: In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition of second-hand records, I have added a (+) or (-) to my gradings where applicable.

MINT: 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 advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. 
EXCELLENT: 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. 
VERY GOOD: 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.
GOOD: 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, discoloration, etc.
FAIR: 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.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

PAYMENT:

Items must be payed for within five days. If non payment within five days, I will then instigate an Ebay ruling. I will set up a dispute and either offer it to the runner up bidder or relist.
