PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER).  OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.



RARE Atlantic SD 19129 CRC edition from 197? with PR (Presswell Records Manufacturing Company) label suffix, CRC text to the left of center hole under STEREO on both labels and the bottom left hand corner on the rear cover, original printed inner sleeve with complete Stairway lyrics and strange dead wax etchings.  Side 1 has (HXAP) and GIC while side 2 has (H-AD) and GID.  I have probably had close to 100 copies of this LP pass through my hands in my 40+ years of collecting but I have never seen this variant before.  Ever.  Release year is unclear as there is not a single entry for this pressing anywhere in the massive, sprawling Discogs database whatsoever.  Rare as hens teeth.  LP side 1 is a beautiful VG++ with one light scuff and side 2 is a gorgeous near mint minus.  Cover is VG/VG+ with a small peel spot in the bottom right hand corner.




I USE GOLDMINE GRADING:  
MINT (SEALED)
NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++:  VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE
VG+:  AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL VG:  STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE POOR:  FILLER COPY ONLY.  LOTS OF SCRATCHES
