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.
WILDLY RARE Warner Brothers UK pressing on the palm tree label from 197? with Warner logo in the rim text at 2:00!!! Cover is fully laminated with original stamped inner sleeve!!! Release year is unclear as there is not a single entry for this pressing anywhere in the massive, sprawling Discogs database whatsoever. I have had well over 10 UK pressings of this LP pass through my hands in my 40+ years of collecting and I have never seen this label variant. Whatever year it was released there were obviously not many pressed. This is a rare one so don't sleep. LP is a gorgeous near mint minus and cover is VG+ with a small fray spot on the spine. A VERY nice copy of this rarity.
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
