I have been led to believe it is catalogued in ''45 Revolutions'' rumour has it that 200 to 300 copies were ever pressed.
Not issued with a picture sleeve but Importantly this copy unlike any that have come to market has hand written details from Tony Collier with his personal phone number etc, cheekily stating
''How About Some Work''
Your are not going to find another like this.
Record- Generally clean with some surface marks a couple are lightly feelable, on play back there is a tiny jump but that is it, the audio is clean with some mild background noise in places and light crackles, I suspect if professionally cleaned it will sound even better. There is some light warping from poor storage you can see it lightly and I have photographed it, only seems to visable on the run in area in two places slightly encroaching visually on the outer edge, it does not effect the playing at all. I did not notice this initially, I have photographed the area. It cant be that bad as it does not effect the playing ability. So not the best of visual conditions but plays absolutely fine with one very short jump. Even as it is you will struggle to find another and it is the one everyone wants.
Sleeve- Generic paper sleeve has some light creasing and mild wear, nothing to bad, hand writing perfect readable.
99p start
You decide its value and best of luck to you all I suspect you will need it.
I WILL HAPPILY DISCOUNT POSTAGE ON MULTIPLE PURCHASES.
