Matrix: Side A) V06 1Y * 1 420 12 1 Side B) V06 2Y * 1 420 12 2
During 1970, Vertigo released 4 variations of the 'Black Sabbath' album.  
This is the very first.
First Pressing Markers Include:  - large Vertigo logo above spindle hole
 - below the spindle: the word 'Vertigo'    and 'A PHILIPS RECORD PRODUCT'    - 'Copyright subsists in all Stereo recordings'    is printed inside the GF right side bottom.    The word 'Stereo' was immediately replaced    with the word 'Vertigo' for ALL 3 remaining    1970  pressings.
Cover: EX++ What wear exists is purely from age & normal use.  The cover has clearly been well cared for. There is very  minor bottom seam shelf-scuffing. That's it. No bumps,  writing, creases, tears, or splits. 
This GF is in gorgeous shape and guaranteed to please.
Vinyl: NM+ Super clean.  Appears as new to the naked eye under normal lighting. I see one surface spider line.
Labels: NM+ Perfect & clean.
Original Inner: VG++ There is a tear in the paper on one side. The inner poly-liner is not impacted. Shows typical aging.
Playback: MINT- Played it from start to finish twice. Audio grades: 9.8/10
