DIRECT FROM THE COLLECTION OF A LONG TERM COLLECTOR WHO HAS CARED FOR HIS RECORDS SINCE BUYING THEM NEW,STORED AWAY FROM LIGHT AND HEAT ON STURDY SHELVES.HE WAS ALSO A NON-SMOKER!

LOCATING A REALLY NICE 1971 1ST EDITION IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN CAUSING MAJOR DISTORTION AND GENERAL WEAR. THIS COPY HAS HAD CAREFUL USE WITH GLEAMING SURFACES. JUST A COUPLE OF ULTRA FAINT HAIRLINE SURFACE MARKS VISIBLE UNDER VERY STRONG LIGHT. THERE IS SOME SLIGHT SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE DURING THE QUIETER PASSAGES AT HIGH VOLUME BUT THAT IS BEING VERY STRICT! THE RECORD HAS NO CLICKS,NO STICKS OR JUMPS. STRICTLY AND SERIOUSLY GRADED AS EXCELLENT CONDITION! 

THICK VINYL.THERE ARE CLEAN LABELS WITH JUST SMALL INITIALS ON SIDE 1 LABEL BUT HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR,STAINING,RIPS OR MAJOR DEFACEMENT. HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL CURVED EDGES INNER SLEEVE WITH THE "PATENT APPLIED FOR" CREDIT DENOTING ONE OF THE FIRST PRINTED. NO WRITING,RIPS,REPAIRS OR STAINING.

THE COVER HAS A TINY STAIN AT THE TOP RIGHT HAND CORNER,TINY INITIALS IN PEN INSIDE  AND A LITTLE WEAR AT THE CORNERS. PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! THERE IS A LOW,REALISTIC £15 BUY IT NOW PRICE WITH 1970s PROGRESSIVE ROCK LPs FROM ME FOR SALE ON EBAY THIS WEEK AND TO FOLLOW.PERSONAL COLLECTION IS WELCOME FROM MY SHOP IN NORWICH AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
