Please read the following informations carefully:
This magnificent German promo vinyl limited edition of The Smiths' debut album is considered by some to be the ultimate acquisition for a Smiths collector, owing to the sheer beauty of the pressing on multicoloured vinyl with red, green, orange and purple tones radiating from the centre.
The result of a technically-difficult manufacturing process from which no two of the LPs are identical. The Record Collector Smiths 'Top 100' article, in which this appeared at Number 8, suggests that this promotional-only version of The Smiths' first LP in Germany is "the most beautiful" of all of the original stylish German Rough Trade pressings of The Smiths releases on coloured vinyl, and it would be difficult to disagree.
Although the commercial German pressing of The Smiths' first LP looked much like that of any other country, this special run of only 500 individually-numbered multicoloured 'marbled' vinyl pressings were produced to promote this release with particular panache.
Opinions regarding its placing in the ranking of Smiths collectables differ and while listed at Number 8 in the aforementioned article of 2005, it was listed as high as Number 2 in the earlier 1992 version of the article.
This one is numbered 243 on the central white label which also carries the track listing and catalogue information. The record is from an radio moderator. He get the record directly from the guys from Rough Trade Recrods Germany as a gift for a radiostation contest. So it is a genuine and 100% original LP. This is a genuinely rare and special item for a Smiths collector, which continues to be a pleasure to own long after it is acquired.
The picture sleeve is the standard German first LP sleeve which was sent out with many of the copies of this promotional LP It is also in strong MINT to MINT- condition The original clear paper inner sleeve is present and intact. Worldwide the same postage. I send only registered.
