Condition:
Originally obtained by myself near on 40 years ago directly from a Mercury records sales executive as a pre-release review copy. This rare and quickly withdrawn from sale 10-track white label test pressing vinyl LP is in excellent condition having been very lightly and carefully played by myself over these past 40 years. The record plays extremely well throughout. Both white labels are very clean and unmarked. The LP is housed in its generic original record company polylined white paper sleeve with artist and title stamped in black print on one side. The paper sleeve has some typical corner / edge creases plus some scuffs and tears near the top right corner. Please see pictures,
All items are from my personal collection. Most are in excellent condition given their age.
Please feel free to ask any questions via eBay.
The record will be very well packed for safe and secure transit.
International buyers please note Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or P&P charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility; please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.
