This copy has the gold raised lettering on the cover (the repress has a 'flat' cover). The labels are those of the first issue with one black label and one with a close-up of the 'Waterfall' image from the inner sleeve. On that basis I consider this is the original FIRST PRESSING. There's no difference in the inner sleeve. One side has a John Squire painting on - 'Waterfall' and the reverse has a few black and white pics of each band member.
Vinyl was played a few times but there are no problems with play. There are no spindle marks on the labels and the vinyl is bright and clean.
This is from my own personal collection from home, was purchased new when released, and has never been used to DJ with so it really is in Excellent condition.
All records are packaged in strong cardboard to ensure rigidity during transit and the record reaches you in the same condition that I post it.
All records and sleeves are graded based on the system used by Record Collector magazine.
I try to be as honest as I can about the condition of an item and if you look at my feedback you’ll see that I often get it right.
MINT: Record in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and inner sleeves, lyric sheets, etc. are in perfect condition.
EXCELLENT: Record shows some signs of having been played and the cover might have some slight wear or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover without major defects.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, with some mild scratches. Cover and contents have split spines, creases and folds.
If you win an item and disagree with my grading then please contact me first.
