WWA 1973
Original WWA pressing from 1973/74. Very first copies had a silver WWA logo on the labels and the subsequent issues had the logo in white. This copy has one of each! On side 1 the logo is silver while side 2 has the white logo. I've not seen one of these before and can find no reference to them on Discogs so presumably quite rare. This copy is also set apart by its superb condition.
Vinyl: Near Mint - looks barely played if at all. A superb vinyl with bright clean labels, beautiful playing surface and no spindle marks. 
Sleeve: Near Mint. A superb copy in thick card with just a handful of short lateral creases by the spine from 50 years of storage. The most startling aspect here is how the white portion of the sleeve has retained its vibrancy as they are often found heavily marked or faded. The image on the inside gatefold has black borders top and bottom.
Inner/insert: NM, thin paper inner sleeve with lyrics has stood the test of time beautifully. Overall a superb copy.
