This auction is for an incredibly rare black vinyl white label factory test pressing / sample copy of The Damned's 1979 single:

“Love Song" c/w "Suicide" & "Noise Noise Noise".

Matrix Details:

Side A: CHIS 112 A-1 ‘GET DOWN’

Side B: CHIS 112 B-1 ‘NEIGHBOUR ANNOYER’

Strangely, the solid centre white label 45 has the raised letters 'K T' on the b-side label, suggesting that the pressing plant, which must have been an EMI facility, still had a stock of mid-1960s 7" vinyl blanks to use for test pressings (The K T tax code was printed on vinyl records produced between 1963 and 1968)

The vinyl's in Near Mint condition, as seen in photos, 

Housed in original white sleeve, as seen in photos.

This item is seriously rare, there is very little information online and as far as I can find, one has not been sold since 2014.

I have an mp3 rip of both sides of the record - please contact me and I can send a Dropbox link.

Viewing in person in Witney, Oxfordshire is welcomed, and I will be more than happy to provide additional photos/detailed as required - please contact me if required.

The record will be shipped in appropriate packaging with stiffeners, but only with the appropriate level of insurance to cover the Item's full 'sold for' value. An invoice will be sent after the auction has ended detailing the postage charges.

I am happy to ship this item internationally, but only with the appropriate level of insurance to cover the Item’s full ‘sold for’ value. An invoice will be sent after the auction has ended detailing the postage charges.
