THE VINYL   MINT    INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

Finding a copy in this condition is very very hard to do, especially the sleeve as so many are damaged, very few were archived away..this copy is simply a time capsule example

This first pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age.

FEATURING THE ALL GREEN LETTERING ON THE LABELS, NOT BLACK OR DARK GREEN LIKE LATER PRESSINGS

NO visible feint spider lines around the centre hole, & no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever. Clearly this copy was archived away since 1982- it is quite incredible.

Barely a hint even, of any light whisp across the vinyl!!  it is absolutely stunning..the whole vinyl plays magnificent! Only a couple of tiny feint whispy lines where the vinyl was slid from the inner into a poly sleeve protector.. EASILY as good as any vinyl we have seen of this title..amazing.

IT PLAYS MINT AND SOUNDS QUITE ASTONISHING!

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION.

 

THE LABELS   MINT  MATT  GREEN INK HARVEST ORIGINAL labels

THE SLEEVE     MINT  SIMPLY PRISTINE. 

Correct LOW GLOSS first UK issued earliest sleeve 

 This is in simply incredible condition, you will not see better than this we feel! STRAIGHT OUT THE BOX BRAND NEW MITN CONDITION- AS GOOD AS YOU WILL EVER SEE.

The edges are all super clean with no traces of rub, at all , and all colours and inks remain in outstanding condition -No powdery white ringwear

The open edge remains in immaculate sharp condition with not a hint of handling

NO tip rub on the corners, and NO ring press..Which for this sleeve is impossible to find!..but here we have a sleeve of the most incredible condition!

WE CLARIFY BY SAYING, THIS SLEEVE IN THIS CONDITION HAS TO BE WORTHY OF  MUSEUM QUALITY.

    

THE INNER SLEEVE   MINT

Original  black card photo inner with rounded corners (later innes were square corners) ... no scissoring here..pristine condition PERFECT IN FACT!
