This one is extremely rare and a great thing to own if you collect or like Creedence Clearwater Revival.  On sale is the Dutch Liberty test pressing of CCR's 1969 Willy and the poor boys album. Only a handful of these were pressed and fewer have survived. This comes from a collection of one of the children of an EMI producer, working at and for the record company in Haarlem in the Netherlands, who has kept it stored for over 50 years and has hardly played it. The sleeve has Creedence Clearwater Revival and the Liberty number (90988) handwritten on the sleeve. The record has a white Proefpersing (Dutch for Test Pressing) label on the A side and a white label on the B side. The sheet with details on the album (cue sheet) is missing. The record sounds really good, and looks really good, with only a few ticks on the B side. The sleeve itself is in fair condition with some small holes as shown in the pictures. It looks yellow, but that could be expected after nearly 55 years. If you need more pictures, just ask.  Registered shipping only! Shipping and handling is: Nederland €13, EU €19, Rest of the world €29.  I am a collector of vinyl myself and hate it when an album arrives damaged or wrapped, so I use new cardboard boxes and pack the record itself in two cardboard pieces. Registered shipping only! I can combine shipping, just add another euro for each additional lp or wait for my invoice.
