ATTENTION THE WHO,1960s BRITISH BEAT GROUPS COLLECTORS,PIRATE RADIO FANS AS WELL AS CONDITION UPGRADERS OF MONO LPs!     

HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1967 MONO 1ST ISSUE OF THE RARELY SEEN(ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION) ESSENTIAL 3RD ALBUM BY THE WHO: "THE WHO SELL OUT" WHICH INCLUDES SOME OF THE FAMOUS 1960s PIRATE RADIO JINGLES IN BETWEEN MOST OF THE TRACKS. IT VERY RARELY TURNS UP IN AS OUTSTANDING EXCELLENT CONDITION AS THIS UPGRADER STANDARD EXAMPLE!.  IT'S ONE OF THE BEST COPIES I HAVE EVER FOUND AND HEARD IN NEARLY 30 YEARS AS A DEALER BUT THE BIG,BIG NEWS IS IT HAS THE USUALLY MISSING LARGE POSTER OF WHICH THERE WERE ONLY 500 PRINTED AND INCLUDED  FOR THE FIRST 500 COPIES OF THE MONO EDITION AND 500 FOR THE STEREO MAKING THIS ONE OF THE RAREST WHO ISSUES EVER! SOME OF THE COVERS HAVE A STICKER ON THE COVER TO DENOTE THIS BUT THERE IS NO STICKER,HOWEVER IT IS A FULLY LAMINATED COVER UNLIKE LATER REPRINTS AND REISSUES!

NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH LATER REISSUES THAT EXIST-THIS IS THE ORIGINAL UK ISSUE ON THE POLYDOR PRESSED TRACK LABELS! MOST BUYING MONO LPs IN 1967 WERE USING OLD,HEAVY EQUIPMENT THAT WOULD WEAR OUT ANY RECORD VERY QUICKLY INDEED! DIRECT FROM THE COLLECTION OF A MAJOR COLLECTOR WHO HAS FINALLY DECIDED TO SELL HAVING CARED AND CHERISHED HIS RECORDS-MOST BOUGHT NEW AT THE TIME WITH MINIMAL PLAYS AS OFTEN THE CASE WITH LARGE COLLECTIONS.THEY WERE STORED UPRIGHT ON STRONG SHELVING AWAY FROM LIGHT,HEAT,DAMP AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS A NON-SMOKER!  THIS IMPRESSIVE EXAMPLE HAS HAD CAREFUL USE IN NEARLY 49 YEARS AS WELL AS A CLEAN FULLY LAMINATED COVER!

ISSUED ON THE VERY THICK 100% FLAT VINYL POLYDOR PRESSED TRACK LABELS:612 002 WITH A 2/B 1 MATRIXES. HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL "MADE IN ENGLAND" DIE CUT WHITE PAPER INNER SLEEVE.THE COVER IS IN GREAT SHAPE.  LOCATING A REALLY OUTSTANDING 1967 MONO COPY IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN CAUSING MAJOR DISTORTION AND GENERAL WEAR. THIS COPY HAS HAD SOME CAREFUL USE WITH GLEAMING SURFACES,JUST SOME LIGHT HAIRLINE SURFACE MARKS VISIBLE UNDER STRONG LIGHT. HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE EVEN IN BETWEEN THE TRACKS! JUST A FEW ISOLATED "POPS" AND A COUPLE OF FAINT AND SHORT LIVED CLICKS. THE MONO MIXES HAVE FAR MORE BASS THAN THE STEREO PRESSINGS. THE RECORD HAS NO LOUD CLICKS,NO STICKS OR JUMPS.STRICTLY AND SERIOUSLY GRADED AS EXCELLENT CONDITION! THICK VINYL.THERE IS HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR AND NO LABEL WRITING,STAINING,RIPS OR DEFACEMENT! THE POSTER DOES HAVE A NUMBER OF CREASES,SOME TINY EDGE TEARS,A FEW PINHOLES AND A COUPLE OF TINY CORNER PIECES MISSING HAVING BEEN WALL DISPLAYED FOR A SHORT TIME BUT IT IS STILL IN GREAT SHAPE AND VERY RARE! 

THE COVER HAS SOME VERY SLIGHT STAINING AND A FEW SMALL CREASES-MOSTLY NEAR THE EDGES BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS!  PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND BOTH LABELS!

SPECIAL DELIVERY AND INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR POSTAGE ONLY ON THIS LP. PERSONAL COLLECTION IS WELCOME FROM MY SHOP IN NORWICH AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
