On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Rolling Stones called "Sticky Fingers" and is an ORIGINAL 1971 UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Rolling Stones label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  IT IS ONE OF THE RAREST & MOST SOUGHT AFTER ROLLING STONES LPS EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  IT IS ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT LPs ON THE ROLLING STONES LABEL - AND IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!!  THIS LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT A NICE 'BELT AREA' (NO TEARS TO THE FLAP!), AND THE ZIP IS STILL PERFECTLY WORKING (MOST DON'T!), AND IS STILL 100% GOLDEN (MOST ARENT!)!!!!

IT IS ALSO THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE, WITH NO 'EXTRA' CREDITS ON THE LABEL (LATER ADDED!), AND THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'SMALL SQUARE' ZIP!!!!  AND ANOTHER VERY IMPORTANT PIECE OF INFORMATION THAT RECENTLY CAME TO LIGHT (MOST ROLLING STONES COLLECTORS WILL KNOW THIS ALREADY!) IS THAT THE 'LARGE ZIP' MYTH HAS FINALLY BEEN EXPOSED!!!!  UP UNTIL RECENTLY SOME PEOPLE WERE UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THE 'LARGE ZIP' STAMPED 'PAN' WAS THE EARLIEST.  HOWEVER, SOME EXTREMELY CLEVER PERSON DID SOME VERY IMPORTANT RESEARCH AND EXPOSED THE MYTH!!!!  FIRSTLY - ON ALL 'LARGE ZIP' COVERS - AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SPINE IT WILL SAY 'WEST GERMANY'.  OR MORE COMMONLY THERE IS SOME LIGHT WEAR THERE INSTEAD - WHERE SELLERS HAVE REMOVED IT.  OFTEN YOU WILL SEE A COVER WITH A PERFECT SPINE - AND YET ON THE VERY BOTTOM PINCH OF THE SPINE, WILL BE SOME FRACTIONAL WEAR - GIVING THIS AWAY!!!!  HOWEVER, FURTHER PROOF WAS FOUND - WHEN THE 'PAN' ZIP MANUFACTURER WAS EVENTUALLY LOCATED IN GERMANY!!!!  SO ALL 'LARGE ZIP' COVERS ARE LATER IMPORTED GERMAN COVERS (AND NOT UK!) WITHOUT EXCEPTION!!!!  ANOTHER ZIP THAT CAN ALSO BE EXPOSED AS LATER, ARE ZIPS WITH THE 'YKK' STAMPINGS!!!!  'YKK' WERE A JAPANESE MANUFACTURER OF ZIPS WHO EVENTUALLY BECAME THE LARGEST MANUFACTURER OF ZIPS IN THE WORLD IN THE 1980s.  SO THOSE WITH 'YKK' STAMPINGS WILL BE FROM THE MID 1970s (AT BEST) - AND MOST WILL BE A LOT LATER STILL!!!!  THE 'TRUE' ZIP THAT CAME FIRST ON THIS COVER (AS MOST ROLLING STONES COLLECTORS WILL ALREADY KNOW) - IS THIS ONE, WITH A COMPLETELY 'BLANK' ZIP WITH NO MANUFACTURERS CREDIT!!!!  IT IS MADE OF FAR HIGHER QUALITY OF METAL, AND IS EASY TO SPOT & DATE - WHEN COMPARED TO SIMILAR CLOTHING ZIPS MADE IN THE LATE 1960s AND EARLY 1970s!!!!  SO NOT ONLY DOES THIS LP HAVE THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS NO 'EXTRA' CREDITS ON THE LABEL (LATER ADDED!), AND THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'SMALL SQUARE' ZIP ASWELL!!!!

NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN GREAT CONDITION - AND IS 100% COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS 'RICHARD DAVIS' INSERT (SO OFTEN MISSING!)!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1971 UK 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS ROLLING STONES LABEL, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS LABEL TYPE, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS ZIP, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'PICTURE/CREDITS' INSERT, AND 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'ZIP' COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Rolling Stones UK 1st Pressing from 1971 and is in GREAT condition!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is COC 59100 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Rolling Stones Label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!!  All the tracks are pure quality Rolling Stones at their best!!!! Any fan of The Rolling Stones, or 60s/70s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!

The record labels (see pictures) have NO stickers, NO wear (apart from a touch around the centre holes!), NO writing, and only a few light spindle marks!!!!  The vinyl is in GREAT condition!!!!  Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO nasty concentric marks AT ALL, only a few VERY light hairlines, only 3 or 4 VERY light scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!!  It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO skips, barely ANY clicks AT ALL, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some typical background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a very VERY decent record indeed!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  THE ULTRA RARE 'PICTURE/CREDITS' INSERT IS IN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITION - WITH NO DAMAGE AT ALL!!!!  The ORIGINAL 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Zip' Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, barely ANY spinal wear AT ALL (virtually NONE - and the side words still ALL readable!), NO splits, only slight corner wear, NO sticker marks, only a VERY few light creases (apart from a few creases on the belt area - and the cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), NO tears to the 'belt' area (with NO rips, NO tears, and NO splits!), NO ringwear, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL, NO sticker tears, a price impression under light, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, barely ANY rubbing, only the usual few TINY indentations (all 1st Pressings have these!), NO sticker marks, and NO writing!!!!  The 'Zip' is still 100% GOLDEN (and NOT grey like most copies!), with NO teeth missing, and it works PERFECTLY!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
