Description
I'm the original owner of this single LP PTV second ever pressing of their debut A Flair For The Dramatic sold on the hellomerch(?) store in 2014. White vinyl with red splatter for a blood splatter look, the coolest variant in my opinion! This was before Selfish Machines.
The very first pressing of the record was released in 2013 and limited to 1,000 just like this one, however the first pressing has been much easier to find the past few years. I can't find any active or sold listings for this 2014 variant anywhere. This was released alongside a solid red pressing that was limited to 2,000 at Hot Topic and then they didn't release other variants until 2017.
The covers were made out of extremely thin cardboard sleeves so it looks like there is very slight ringwear however I have always stored this upright. Because of this, the cardboard on the front bottom side of the sleeve has partially separated from the back. It is not ripped or torn! It can easily be fixed with glue or tape but I figured I'd leave that up to the new owner. It can still be held/stored completely as normal, you can't tell from the outside and it's really only noticeable when putting the record back in. I completely forgot it happened until I was taking photos today. This and small crease(?) on the back cover are pictured!
Played only a few times on a technica but it's been at least 7 years. I unfortunately haven't had a record player since then so can't test play but the disc has absolutely no visible flaws on side A or B.
The one page lyric insert is near mint, no holes, tears or creases.
For an 11 year old record, I would say it is in incredible shape. I am really sad to let it go but unfortunately need the funds. It will be shipped with a lot of extra love and protection.
