Description
HERE IS A QUITE SUPERB EXAMPLE OF PINK FLOYDS SECOND SINGLE RELEASE "SEE EMILY PLAY". THE FLIPSIDE IS "SCARECROW". THIS IS THE FRENCH PRESSING WITH THE FAMOUS PICTURE SLEEVE (DRAWN BY THE LATE SYD BARRETT). THIS SLEEVE HAS BECOME HIGHLY COLLECTABLE, AND THIS ONE IS IN GREAT CONDITION, AND THE VINYL HAS SEEN VERY LITTLE PLAY.
THE PAPER FLIP-BACK COVER IS IN VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+) CONDITION. THERE IS A VERY SMALL AMOUNT OF AGE MARKING AND A HINT OF A DISC IMPRESSION IN PLACES. THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO ANY OF ITS EDGES AT ALL. THERE IS SOME LIGHT CREASING TO A COUPLE OF CORNERS, AND TO THE OPENING EDGES. MY GRADING IS EXTREMELY CONSERVATIVE.
THE VINYL ON BOTH SIDES IS IN A QUITE OUTSTANDING CONDITION. LOOKS BARELY PLAYED. BOTH VINYL SURFACES ARE FREE FROM ANYTHING BUT THE LIGHTEST WHISPY MARKS, AND BOTH RETAIN A NICE DEEP SHEEN. THE DISC HAS THE POP-OUT CENTRE, AND THE LABELS ARE EXCELLENT. SIDE 1 (SEE EMILY PLAY) HAS WHAT LOOKS LIKE AN OLD HAND STAMPED WORD ON IT, JUST BY THE TITLE. IT SEEMS TO SAY SOMETHING LIKE "CHOCOREVE", BUT THIS MEANS NOTHING TO ME. BOTH SIDES OF THE DISC PLAY SUPERBLY AND REMARKABLY QUIETLY TOO. THERE IS VIRTUALLY NOTHING YOU COULD FAULT. I GRADE BOTH SIDES, (AGAIN, QUITE CONSERVATIVELY), AS EXCELLENT. FOR A DISC OF THIS AGE, I THINK IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIND A COPY THAT PLAYS BETTER THAN THIS. THIS IS A REAL COLLECTORS ITEM. SOLD WITH A LOW START PRICE AND NO RESERVE. LET THE MARKET PLACE DECIDE ITS VALUE. THIS REALLY IS A TOP TOP COPY.
IF THE POSTAGE IS LESS THAN MY LISTED ESTIMATE, I WILL REFUND THE DIFFERENCE IN FULL. IF NOT AS DESCRIBED, I WILL ACCEPT A RETURN, AND I WILL PAY POSTAGE BOTH WAYS.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, OR REQUIRE MORE PHOTOS, PLEASE JUST ASK. I AM SELLING RARE FLOYD RECORDS ON A VERY REGULAR BASIS, SO IT IS WORTH KEEPING AN EYE ON MY FUTURE SALES. ALSO LISTED THIS WEEK IS A SEALED COPY (IN BLACK SHRINK-WRAP WITH STICKER) OF THE BANDS 1975 RELEASE "WISH YOU WERE HERE".
GOOD LUCK.
