The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is IMLP 012 on the 'Lilac/Grey' 1st Press Immediate label (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1968 'Earliest' 1st pressing!!!! All the tracks are pure quality Small Faces at their best!!!! Any fan of Small Faces, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!

The record labels are in STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a VERY few light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in GREAT condition!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only few small hairlines, only 2 or 3 light scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is great to find the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual!!!!  The record plays well with NO nasty loud pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle, and only some VERY slight low level background crackle/sound on the gaps and the run on grooves!!!!  There is NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed) if not better!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press Plastic Inner sleeve which is INCREDIBLY hard to find!!!! The ULTRA RARE 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Circular 'Fold Out' Cover is in STUNNING condition!!!! It has NO edge wear, all the circles are PERFECTLY joined (NO splits), barely ANY creases AT ALL (cover is VERY flat looking indeed), NO rubbing, NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, and NO writing!!!!  ALL of the circles retain EVERY BIT of their original vivid colour and look AWESOME!!!!  The cover MUST grade Excellent+ if not better - and it is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to find a 100% GENIUNE 'Earliest' 1st Press Cover in this SUPERB condition!!!! THIS IS ONE OF THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST MONO PRESSINGS EVER OF THIS AMAZING LP AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
