Description
Welcome to my auctions....check out the other vinyl listed, more added each week and follow me so you don't miss out.
My dad was a private collector, he collected thousands and thousands of records from 1950's to early 2000's, many are rarities, obscurities and some are unique, I am not a dealer, just selling the collection now he is unable to do so himself.
You can expect great service/fast dispatch/super strong packaging/combined shipping and honest, no nonsense gradings BUT Please read descriptions.

Side 1 just has 2 very faint and fine hairlines no other marks. Side 2 has a couple of faint groove marks, Side 3 has a handful of small, very faint and fine scratches and a little faint surface scuffing, Side 4 just has 2 very faint and fine hairlines and a very faint groove mark. Apart from that just the odd sleeve removal trace under strong artificial light on each side. All sides look stunning and glossy, mirror like shine. Not Perfect but certainly one of the best copies you will find.
Playtested and there are no skips, sticks or jumps, non of the above mentioned marks affect play. The audio is superb, strong and vibrant with only very faint background during quiet parts. Track 1 side 3 has a bit of light background due to the faint and fine scratches but even these do not in any way overpower the wonderful audio. Not many better sounding copies left out there. Stored for 40+ years so will benefit from a proper clean, which can reduce the background static.
Labels all have Light signs of play(spiders legs) under strong light, All labels are clean and free from the usual writing etc, Stunning...see photos
Original Laminated 6-Panel Gatefold Sleeve (Earliest with 3 Laminated) is in Stunning Nr Perfect condition. All Laminated panels (front, back and one inside) are Super Glossy with No rubbing or wear, The front/Back have 3 tiny creases from edges but there is no other wear at all. Hardly any corner wear (very slight bump to top right). Top, Bottom and opening edges have only the slightest signs of wear. Spine is solid and unworn, its still glossy with no damage. Very very slight rub near bottom of back sleeve but apart from that it's not far off the day it was made, been very well cared for...see photos...This is a Stunning Example of this sleeve.
The Rare Numbered Booklet is crisp, flat and still white. there is an indentation line on a couple of the pages when held in the light, apart from that just normal handling wear and a couple of tiny marks, A Great Example
