Queen---"A Night At The Opera"---Original UK 1st Pressed Stereo Album In NM Condition With NM Sleeve & Inner On The EMI Label--- -2 and -2 From 1975---A Lovely "BLAIRS" Copy & Rare Like This!
This is a UK copy from 1975 in stereo on the EMI label, cat. no. EMTC 103 with matrices -2 and -2 and "BLAIRS" on both runoffs.
Vinyl: NM. The vinyl is in lovely condition with a great shine and no marks. It plays with superb audio quality and is one of the best I've heard.
Labels: NM. The labels are in lovely condition with no markings. There is just a little light spindle wear.
Sleeve: NM. The gatefold embossed logo sleeve is in amazingly solid condition with no wear. The white finish is still sparkling bright on both inside and out. The spine has not had any crushing at all and stands up beautifully. It is rare to find the original corner cut inner sleeve in a condition as nice as this, but this is probably one of the best with no splits and just this minimum amount of edge wear.
With a low start price you could get yourself a real bargain.
Many thanks for looking at this and our other vinyl to be auctioned.
Please note that all records we sell, unless they are unplayed, are listened to in their entirety and are graded generously according to Record Collector guidelines. None of the vinyl has jumps or skips unless advised in the description.
