THE ROLLING STONES / "STICKY FINGERS" Earliest 1971 UK Press LP in NEAR MINT- Condition Matrices: COC-59100-A4 & COC-59100-B3 "ROLLING STONES RECORDS T.M.L." [hand etched] on Both Sides Includes original "PATENT NOs." inner sleeve unsplit See this LP in HIGH-RESOLUTION photos
CONDITION

DISC: This UK 1st pressing LP is visually in NEAR MINT- condition, with only the barest traces of hairlines. Please keep in mind that NEAR MINT is my highest grade for an opened LP. Brand-new "audiophile" vinyl often has more surface imperfections than this 45-year-old LP has. Both Rolling Stones Records labels show only a few spindle trails.

Please note: this LP was mastered by Doug Sax at world famous The Mastering Lab (T.M.L.) and is considered the definitive issue. Read more about Doug Sax at

COVER: The iconic Andy Warhol-designed cover is in NEAR MINT-/EXCELLENT+ condition, with only slight wear on the catalogue number on the spine, and some minor bumps/wear to the bottom corners. I'm being ultra picky. This LP cover is suitable for framing.

INSERT: The original insert with the "Printed by Richard Davis Ltd." text along the bottom is in NEAR MINT- condition, with only slight age-toning and mild wear to the bottom corner.

INNER SLEEVE: The original insert with the "Printed by Richard Davis Ltd." text along the bottom is in EXCELLENT+ condition, with only slight age-toning and mild wear to the bottom corner.

GRADING INFORMATION I grade conservatively. MINT is a sealed LP; NEAR MINT is an open LP/cover
with virtually no signs of use/wear; EXCELLENT is a well-looked-after LP/cover
with light signs of use/wear; VERY GOOD+ is an LP/cover with average signs of
use/wear but is not trashed. I use unforgiving sunlight and incandescent light to visually grade each LP. I don’t make unverifiable claims as to how many plays a non-sealed LP has had.   SHIPPING
