THIS ALBUM IS HARD TO FIND WITH A NEAR MINT RECORD LIKE THIS
THE COVER IS EXCELLENT
original white 'i' 1969 UK pink label Island 1st pressing in top near mint condition
magnificent front cover artwork, which I believe to be by French artist Claude Génisson (b 1927)
with gloriously vibrant colour, and from his original work entitled The Downfall Of Icarus
THIS IS THE VERY FIRST ORIGINAL PRESSING
very thick, heavy 'deep groove' disc
beautiful matt paper labels
white 'i' pink island design (the first, of course, for this release)
with superb rich deep colour
machine-stamped matrix side one
I L P S 9 1 1 4 A // 1
machine-stamped matrix side two
I L P S 9 1 1 4 B ? 1
(amended by the cutting engineer)
from I L P S 9 1 1 1 with a hand-inscribed X over the last digit
that number belonging, of course, to King Crimson In The Court Of The Crimson King
stampers side one
1 1 1 1
stampers side two
1 1 1 1
other cutting engineer inscriptions (both sides)

SUPERB ORIGINAL EXAMPLE
the record is near mint
just a couple of the most minimal traces from the correct original plain white poly-lined inner sleeve
lovely deep pink matt paper labels are virtually as new with almost no signs of spindle wear
they really are immaculate - bright, sharp, crisp, clear and clean
the thick, heavy E.J. Day unlaminated gatefold cover is near excellent
and possibly now as close as you will get to mint for this notoriously prone to wear sleeve
the spine has clear, bright titles
interior layout pretty close to as new
top seams excellent, lower seams have light shelf wear
opening edges super sharp, corners lightly bumped
there is a tiny 1cm (one centimetre) scuff to the top left rear corner
and a couple of miniscule scuffs over on the rear right
the cover has no splits, writing, stickers, stamps, stains or significant creases
it is still very crisp, clean and rigid
superb vibrant colour to Génisson's evocative cover painting
original and correct plain (no cautionary text) white poly-lined paper inner sleeve
with U.K. Patent No. 1,072,844 Foreign Patents Pending notation in pale blue is excellent
clean and creamy white
A BEAUTIFUL COPY!
