BLIND FAITH                      Blind Faith                            1969                                      POLYDOR                                        583 059                     Matrix no's : 583059 - A1 / B1                                      
The vinyl retains great sheen even with the numerous visible marks - predominantly hairlines but also a few more noticeable marks and blemishes. The playback still retains great clarity with only minor surface noise audible in places, mainly quiet parts and between tracks etc and so is graded EXCELLENT MINUS.    The RED POLYDOR record labels are graded EXCELLENT MINUS.
The thin card GATEFOLD picture sleeve by MacNeill Press has single thickness on left side and also the 'Distributed by Polydor and Island' credit typical of these FIRST PRESS releases. There is some foxing and marks to the inside of the gatefold and also spine rub resulting in spine being only 75% legible. Also corner wear and a stain to front top right and some feathering to single card left side - overall graded at EXCELLENT MINUS. 


SHIPPING All Lps are packed carefully and shipped using purpose made new corrugated card RECORD MAILERS ( not thin card, single sleeve 'envelopes' etc ) and we take care to make sure that the vinyl and inner sleeve are removed from the outer sleeve to prevent seam splits during transit.
