THE SMITHS: This Charming Man- Rare French 4 Track “12” Vinyl. Virgin. Nr Mint..

This is as near mint condition as your ever going to find such a classic record of this vintage.

From my own collection, and always stored upright, in an outer protective sleeve, it’s in superb condition.

Vinyl.

Side 1. Beautifully glossy, and barely a mark to be seen. Stunning.

Side 2. Again, a glorious deep glossy sheen, with one small hairline mark.

The audio is again superb. Barely a pop or crackle.

Sleeve.

Again, near mint; just a tiny barely visible crease/shelf ware, to top right corner tear, and very bottom left corner. No other age/shelf ware to bottom or top, and a stunningly strong, clearly defined spine.

Inner Sleeve.

Again, near mint.

Pressing Information.

MPO etched into run out grove on both sides.

Side 1.

Matrix: Crossed out, followed by 80 074 A

Side 2.

Matrix: Crossed out, followed by 80 074 B

In conclusion, this is a stunningly good French pressing, of a truly great record. Near mint throughout, with truly excellent audio. Superb.

However, I tend to be quite conservative in my gradings/descriptions, as being a collector myself, I appreciate that accurate and honest grading is paramount. Thus, I retain a 100% positive feedback rating, so rest assured, you can bid with confidence.

Please see all photos, as they form part of the description. More on request.
