THIS LP IS MASSIVELY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND!!!!  NOT ONLY THAT BUT IT IS IN BRILLIANT CONDITION!!!! INTERESTINGLY THE MOTHER & STAMPERS ON THIS RECORD ALSO SHOW IT IS THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESSING EVER!!!!  FOR NOT ONLY DOES THIS RECORD HAVE 1/1 MATRIX ENDINGS - BUT THE STAMPER NUMBERS AFTER THIS ON EITHER SIDE ARE 1111 & 1111 - SHOWING IT IS THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1ST PRESSING EVER!!!!  THIS IS THE 1965 UK 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS FONTANA LABEL, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS LAMINATED COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS MASSIVELY RARE AND VERY HARD TO FIND - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Fontana UK 1st pressing and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is TL 5239 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Fontana Label (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1st pressing!!!!

The record labels are in STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a VERY few light spindle marks!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition overall!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, 1 TINY hairline type mark, 2 or 3 VERY light hairlines, and only a few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is great to find that the record plays almost as STUNNINGLY as the visual!!!!  It plays with barely ANY clicks/pops AT ALL, NO sticking, NO jumps, NO hiss and barely ANY crackle!!!! However I did notice 1 brief surface sound right at the beginning of 'Roadrunner',  2 or 3 clicks/pops (and a couple of revolutions of VERY light crackle in the same place) on 'Shes Mine, Shes Fine', and a few brief surface sounds on the track '13 Chester Street' - though these might actually be part of the track itself.  Overall though this record plays BRILLIANTLY and the sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good+ - though visually it looks even better!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve!!!! The 1st Press Laminated Cover is in BRILLIANT condition and VERY hard to find like this!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), shiny laminate, only a few light creases (cover is still VERY flat looking), and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, NO rubbing, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++++ if not better and is VERY hard to find in this condition!!!!  THIS LP IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND AND MASSIVELY RARE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
