You are bidding on a 33 RPM Pink Floyd - A Saucerful of Secrets on Tower Records ST 5131 Stereo from 1968. The cover is VG as it has paper missing on the front and back covers where it looks like it had some other albums stuck to it from dampness or heat in attic or basement. It has a seam split about 1/2" on the bottom where the record slides in and about a 1" split about 3" in from the opening. Otherwise the seams are solid. It has a generic inner sleeve which has some wrinkles and some spots. The record is VG/VG+ as it has some scratches under a bright light. Side 1 at about 3 o'clock has a small scratch that you can barely feel. It may cause a tic. This was the second album from the band from 1968. During the recording, the mental health of the singer and guitarist, Syd Barrett declined so David Gilmour was recruited to complement him, Barrett left the Bank before the album was completed. Set The Controls for The Heat of The Sun is the only song on which all 5 members appeared. the Tower Orange label is worth twice as much as the multi-colored label in Goldmine 7th Edition. If you are a Pink Floyd fan, this is a nice find.
