THE VINYL   MINT- PLAY    INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the 'GRAIL' OF ALL TRESPASSES!- THE PINK SCROLL B&C 1970 PRESSING!-

Stored from new this LP has seen WELL BELOW AVERAGE PLAYS, and remains in SUPERB condition everywhere.

POSSIBLY THE CLEANEST COPY WE HAVE EVER HAD IN FACT!

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is virtually no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age. The edges are silky smooth, typical of these vintage pressings. We are seing fewer and fewer copies of this 'HATTER' LP, so rarely do we see a copy at all, let alone like this.

There are a few light spider lines around the centre hole, and no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever.

There are a few whisp lines, and thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION.

On playing through we heard ...

Just some light static in a few spots during play.. the quiet passages were stunning with just some very light occassional little static crackle- overall this is easily as clean a copy as we have heard.

Bearig in mind, these 'pinks crioll' pressings are notorious for bas surface noise, as many back in the day suffered- saying that these are so rare in any condition

SO FINDING ONE THIS CLEAN IS BEYOND RARE

THE VINYL IS VISUALLY OUTSTANDING TOO.

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.
