KALEIDOSCOPE Faintly Blowing LP 1969 UK 1st Press VGC ULTRA RARE

WHAT MAKES THIS EVEN MORE ULTRA RARE IS AS THIS LP WAS SOLD IN LIMITED  QUANTITIES AND MOST WITH A WATERMARK, THEN THE REST PRINTED WITHOUT A WATERMARK I CANT SEE A WATERMARK SO I THINK ITS EVEN MORE RARE IF YOU ARE A RECORD COLLECTOR PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ME SEND ME A PM I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH BUT CANT TOTALLY CONFIRM THE ABSENSE OF WATERMARK
******* I READ THAT THIS RECORD IS PRETTY MUCH IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND WITHOUT A WATERMARK SO ULTRA ULTRA RARE FIND ********
Matrix / Runout: 886 496 1Y//1 V 420 Matrix / Runout: 886 496 2Y//1 V 420
1ST PRESS GATEFOLD LAMINATED COVER
The Cat. No is STL 5491 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Fontana label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing ( there were NO Monos )
THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!   THIS IS ONE OF THE ALL TIME RAREST UK PSYCH LPs EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  
Classic UK 1st Press silver & black labels!!! Both sides are FANTASTIC with NO real signs of age, NO writing, NO stickers, and NO tears whatsoever!!! 
Just has SOME ultra light spindle marks but scuff marks all round if hold at angle to the light which suggests that this hasn't had too much play over the years at all!!! AWESOME for a 48 year old record!!! Both must grade overall at least as Very Good A++++
GRADE LP 
NOT SURE HOW TO GRADE THE LP BUT LOOKS LIKE IT HAS LIGHT SCUFF MARKS AROUND RECORD PROBABLY REMOVING FROM SLEEVE AND PUTTING BACK NO DEEP SCRATCHES ONLY ONE SMALL MARK THAT LOOKS A LITTLE DEEPER THAN THE LIGHT MARKS I SHOWED THIS IN A PICTURE , I THINK IT WAS SIDE 2 ABOUT AN INCH TOWARDS OUTSIDE OF RECORD
YOU HAVE TO HOLD IT UP TO THE LIGHT AT AN ANGLE TO SEE THE LIGHT SCUFF MARKS BUT ITS A VERY SHINY RECORD "VG to VG+ Very Good condition, normal wear, maybe a few very light marks
GRADE COVER
Cover good condition in my opinion still glossy spine has a small split in it top and bottom of spine just wear and tear around edges not bad for 50 years old!!! where the sticker was on front theres old sticky residue left I did not attempt to remove it
