Description
Mono 1968 first pressing with VERY early mothers / stampers
Matrix numbers / stampers:
XARL-8476-4A 1 B
XARL-8477-2A 1 U
The vinyl is VG. It looks clean and has retained its shine, although under strong light there are plenty of light surface marks and a few light scratches. I’ve played it all through on my Pro-ject deck and it played fine with no jumps or sticks. There is light background noise but it’s only really noticeable in the gaps between tracks, there’s also some soft ticks on side 1 in the gap between tracks 1&2 and and on side 2 at the very end of track 3 and continuing into the track 4 intro.
The gatefold sleeve is in EX condition inside and out with just minor wear no splits, no tears.
Original Decca inner dated 6/68.
The vinyl has been cleaned on my Pro-ject VC-S cleaning machine (using Pro-ject’s own alcohol free cleaning fluid) and it is now stored in a new anti static inner (original inner also included)
Please see photos.
If you have any questions please ask.
-----------------
Gradings refer to the UK Record Collector Magazine standard (shown below). I would only use "mint" for genuinely unplayed records. Visual grading is done under a spotlight. Play testing is done on a pro-ject turntable.
If buyer is not satisfied for any reason please contact me, I will refund on safe return of item.
Record will be packaged in a proper mailer with stiffening. I will pack with the record removed from the outer sleeve.
Mint (M) - The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
Excellent (EX) - The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
Very Good (VG) - The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable
Good (G) - The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc
