Signing details

Richard Thompson – electric & acoustic guitars, backing vocals (1969 – 1971). Richard has signed at 2 o’clock towards the right-hand edge of the sleeve in fine blue biro-style pen. I am grading 8/10 for definition, with minimal ink ‘bleeding’ into the soft mildly textured semi-gloss card.

I am grading 8/10 for definition, with minimal ink ‘bleeding’ into the soft mildly textured semi-gloss card.

Ashley Hutchings – bass guitar, backing vocals (1967 – 1969). Ashley has signed at 9 o’clock next to Ashley in a medium blue biro-style pen. I am grading 7/10 for definition, with minimal ink ‘bleeding’ into the soft mildly textured semi-gloss card, and slightly finer ink.

Iain Matthews: vocals, guitar (1967 - 1969). Iain has signed with a large sweeping signature at 10 o’clock in a black biro-style pen. I am grading 8/10 for definition.

Shipping weight: 750grm

Shipping dimensions: 33cm x 33cm x 2cm

Condition: Cover is graded excellent minus (-) condition with minimal creasing, minor grubbiness around the ‘Our Price’ pricing label, and a minor corner ‘dink’ in the bottom left-hand corner of the spine. There is evidence of minor age yellowing in the surface of the card on the front and rear panel. The die-cut inner sleeve is plain off-white paper and unlined and is excellent minus (-) condition with minimal creasing, and it is clear that this record has had only minor handling and use. The vinyl itself has a strong sheen, minimal hairlines and minimal spindle marks, and is graded in line with the cover visually at excellent minus (-) condition.
