Available here is a 12" vinyl LP by Kraftwerk - Autobahn. A UK 1st pressing, it was issued by Vertigo in 1974 with the catalogue number 6360 620.

Identifiers - The record bears the requisite 1st pressing marks, although there seems to be several variants …
White cover areas (symbols and title lettering) embossed to the surface of the front and rear
Matrix / Runout - Side A - Stamped - 6360620 1Y//1 420 03 1 1 3 - Etched - BILBO
Matrix / Runout - Side B - Stamped - 6360620 2Y//1 420 03 1 1 3 - Etched - BILBO

Vinyl Condition - Very Good - The record is quite bright and clean and while there are a few light surface marks, there are no worrying scratches. Having listened all the way through, I can confirm that there is no jumping or sticking although the odd click will be heard. Background crackle/noise is present at times and for the most part, generally low level but perhaps slightly more noticeable at the start of the second side.

Cover/Sleeve Condition - Very Good - Original outer cover with a little rubbing to the corners, minor depression marks by the top front edge and a small area of staining nearer the bottom. Plain white, poly-lined, die-cut, inner sleeve is slightly discoloured, has a small side split and is probably the original.

The track listing is …

A - Autobahn
B1 - Kometenmelodie 1
B2 - Kometenmelodie 2
B3 - Mitternacht
B4 - Morgenspaziergang

It is not my intention to profit from postage. If possible I use good clean recyclable material but I also buy bubble wrap, brown paper, packing tape and glue and all items are well wrapped and protected before posting. Items are also weighed and postage calculated before I list at auction and a small percentage of the charge does go towards packing costs. See About Me for further general despatch information.
