Here is your opportunity to own the masterful The Wall album from Pink Floyd. This was the eleventh studio album from Pink Floyd. This album is held high by many fans and critics alike. Rolling Stone Magazine has ranked The Wall number 87 out of the top 500 albums of all time. The Wall was Roger Waters last major contribution to Pink Floyd, and some argue his masterpiece. If you have never heard this album, you owe to yourself to hear it on vinyl. This LP is the 1st pressing on Columbia from 1979. This particular LP has PAL-36184-1F as the matrix number in the dead wax, on side one. Side two of the LP has P PBL-36184-1CF (TML-X Stamped) etched on the dead wax. Side three of the LP has P PAL-36185-1CF etched on the dead wax. Side four of the LP has PBL-36185-1E (TML-X Stamped) etched on the dead wax. The vinyl LP's are in Excellent Condition. Both of the LP's have some very minor paper scuffs on each side. The blemishes are not glaring to eye and are superficial. The LP labels are very clean with only a few very light spindle marks. The fully laminated LP cover is in Excellent condition. The spine and seams all show some extremely minor wear. The two seam corners have a small amount of wear and rounding. On the back of the cover, the bottom left corner has a very minor crease. The inside of the gatefold is brilliant. This album also includes the original two custom inner lyric sleeves. The inner sleeves are in outstanding shape. This album has been professionally cleaned on a VPI 16.5 and will be shipped in brand new white inner sleeves. This album is ready for playing or storage. Please let me know if you have any questions. I do not ship outside of the United States. I can combine shipping for multiple auction wins. Please bid with confidence.
