****************************************************************

This is a 1975 UK pressing bought in the UK around the time of first release. It is not a reissue. Everything is in superb condition and the disc appears to have been very rarely played.

This has the following matrix numbers:

Side one: SHVL 814 A-1

Side two: SHVL 814 B-5

Description
Disc: The vinyl has retained its original sheen with very little to see: just some fine sleeve-removal lines when viewed under bright, direct, but there is nothing significant anywhere.  I would grade it as Excellent Plus (Ex+).

Labels: No tears, stickers, writing etc, and minimal spindle marking suggesting that the record was hardly ever played.

Sleeve: The first press sleeve with pinched spine has no seam splits, tears, writing, stickers etc, just a small, pale mark on the rear and some minor signs of age or use. Please look at the photos.

Inner sleeve: No splits or tears, and virtually no signs of use.

Postcard: Nice example with just a couple of minor marks on the rear (see photo).

Detracting features not covered above:  None.

All photographs are of the actual item for sale. Please ask any questions before you bid or buy.

Where gradings are given these are based on the UK Record Collector grading system (see below) and are visual gradings only, unless the listing specifically states that it is a play-grading.

I use the UK RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM. This grading system differs from some other grading systems, in particular the Goldmine grading system. Please make sure that you are familiar with the UK record collector grading system before you bid.

Mint: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packag­ing might have slight wear and/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 or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

Good: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

Fair: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for prop­erly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

Poor: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Bad: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.

Plus (+) or Minus (-) are added where items fall between gradings. I only ever use one plus or minus.
