Super rare UK original issue. I know this isn’t edition 1 but not sure if this is a variation on edition 2 (but my guess is this). An early pressing regardless with flipbacks on the rear sleeve. Late 1960/61 perhaps?
GRADINGS: (to UK Record Collector Standard)
Sleeve is VG to VG+ with some light marking and foxing as shown, spine is intact but has a small rubbed spot on the top of the sleeve (see pictures). Couple of small creases/laminate lifting spots.
Labels are VG+
Inner sleeve VG.
Record is VG to VG+. Most of it is lovely but it does have one or two moments where there may be a click for 5-10 spins then quietens. Otherwise only light to very light surface noise. One small hiss at the start of track B2 for a few seconds.
Some would grade this EX but I am conservative.
Could perhaps benefit from a deep clean? Some light marking to both sides that may clean off with a deep clean
Still fantastic to listen to! Clarity is there 100%.
