	£		84
	$		111

YOU ARE BIDDING ON A UNBELIEVABLY RARE AND ORIGINAL 1ST PRESSING OF THE ABORTED DECCA EXPORT CONTRACT PRESSING OF THE 1964 ROLLING STONES ALBUM

  12 X 5

 RECORD LABEL CAT NUMBER LL.3402

AS MANY COLLECTORS WILL ALREADY KNOW - THE ALBUM '12 x 5' WAS NOT RELEASED IN THE UK - AND ONLY RELEASED IN THE U.S. AND A FEW OTHER COUNTRIES. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM MY PICTURES IT HAS 'MADE IN ENGLAND' ON LABEL, AND UK MATRIX NUMBERS ARL-6493-1A & ARL-6494-2A!!!!
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL COPY OF THE ABORTED EXPORT PRESSING MANUFACTURED IN THE UK BY DECCA FOR SHIPPING TO THE U.S.A. - THIS WAS A PLANNED EXPORT THAT NEVER HAPPENED, PRODUCTION WAS ABORTED THE VERY SAME DAY IT BEGAN, MOST COPIES PRODUCED WERE DESTROYED, THESE UK EXPORT COPYS WOULD HAVE ONLY PRESSED IN VERY VERY SMALL QUANTITIES, I ONLY KNOW OF ONE OTHER IN EXISTENCE WHICH APPEARED FOR SALE LAST YEAR.

THESE UK EXPORT PRESSINGS JUST NEVER TURN UP AND ARE INCREDIBLY RARE!!!! IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THIS COPY HAD NO COVER WHEN IT WAS ORIGINALLY PRESSED AS THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN SUPPLIED AT ITS COUNTRY OF DESTINATION. NO DOUBT A MONO SLEEVE FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY IS EASILY GETTABLE FOR ANYONE WHO WISHES - THOUGH REALLY AS THIS RECORD WAS NEVER SHIPPED OUT FROM THE UK THIS IS EXACTLY AS IT WOULD HAVE COME - AND I BELIEVE IT IS BETTER TO LEAVE WELL ALONE. THIS IS AFTER ALL A PIECE OF LIVING ROLLING STONES HISTORY.

The Cat. No is LL 3402 on the ORIGINAL 'RIDGED' UK pressed London Label (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1st EXPORT pressing!!!!"

JUST TRY TO FIND ANOTHER EXAMPLE, I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING FOR DECADES AND HAVE NEVER SEEN ONE IN THE FLESH BEFORE, THE EXISTENCE OF THIS PRESSING WAS ONLY CONFIRMED IN 2004, AS STATED I AM AWARE OF JUST ONE OTHER, WHICH CAME UP FOR SALE IN THE UK LAST YEAR, THIS WAS SOLD TO A COLLECTOR WHO RESIDES IN THE USA.

NO RESERVE !!!!!BIDDING STARTS @ 1P!!!

GRADE OF THE VINYL

 THE VINYL LABELS ARE THE SILVER ON RED MONO LONDON  VARIETY, MINIMAL WEAR AROUND THE CENTRAL SPINDLE AREA, UNMARKED BEAUTIFULL BRIGHT SILVER TEXT WITH VIBRANT RED BACKGROUND, THE LABELS ARE EXCELLENT CONDITION
