DEEP PURPLE In Rock *1ST UK PRESS* Vinyl LP SHVL 777 *NO EMI/GRAM TXT* ~ VG+/VG
FIRST UK 1970 PRESSING WITH ORIGINAL ADVERTORIAL INNER HOUSED IN LAMINATED FRONT & BACK GATEFOLD COVER IN GREAT CONDITION.
Please see images, thanks.
**NO EMI ON LABELS**
**GRAMOPHONE COMPANY ON RIM OF LABELS**
**LAMINATED COVER FLIPOVER AT BOTTOM**
**ORIGINAL ADVERT INNER ~ LINED**
Vinyl plays without any major hiccups, nice surface sheen. VG at least. Some hairlines but nothing more serious.
Labels VG+, a few spindle traces.
Inner VG+, solid, clear and no splits.
Cover solid, light wear, some creases along lower edge, would be a VG+ except for a sticky label on inside cover! However, it's the only issue on this cover, it has aged well (51 years!), so not as new but original/authentic. VG.
**WELL PRESENTED TO BUYER
**SECURELY PACKED
**HAPPY TO COMBINE
**SENSIBLE POSTAGE OPTIONS
