1st Press Matrix numbers...

Side 2 = SHVL 814 B-3
Early Mother stampers...
Side 1 = 2 GOH
Side 2 = 1 GMG
The outer sleeve is the first variant, which is noted by the pinched spine and is in STUNNING condition - the best I have come across so far!!No splits or tears and is still absolutely beautiful! Amazing spine, minimal age wear, dirt. (NM-)
The labels are stunning and the first variant which shows "Waters-Gilmour-Wright" song-writers credit for 'Shine on You Crazy Diamond' (Side 1 Part 5). Which was subsequently changed on later pressings for just "Waters". They are absolutely lovely and have amazing spindle holes. (NM)
The matrix numbers on the vinyl show that this is a UK first A1 B3 pressing. The mother stamper codes also suggest that the record was produced very early in the manufacturing line.
The original card inner sleeve, with a notch to the top edge and which is die-cut on three of the four corners is also in SUPERB condition! It has no splits or tears, is bright & vibrant with only minimal only age discolouration/dirt. (NM-)
The vinyl has a superior glossy sheen in appearance, and sits flat to the surface. Only a couple of light insignificant no feel surface lines. Stunning labels. (EX+)
Completing this set is the often missing crinkle cut Postcard - it is beautiful, vibrant, glossy and almost perfect, just a couple of minor imperfections! (EX+)
OVERALL, A STUNNING & EXCELLENT PIECE OF MUSICAL HISTORY TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION!!!
