HERE IS A SUPERB CONDITION COPY OF AN ESSENTIAL PINK FLOYD ALBUM:"DARK SIDE OF THE MOON" IN VERY STRICTLY GRADED EXCELLENT CONDITION-100% COMPLETE WITH THE USUALLY MISSING POSTERS AND STICKERS,THE "MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN" CURVED EDGES INNER SLEEVE AND THE GATEFOLD COVER.
THIS IS NOT A FIRST PRESSING BUT STILL FROM PROBABLY 1977 WITH A-10/B-9 MATRIXES AND MUCH THICKER VINYL THAN THE LATER REPRESSES.
THERE ARE GLEAMING SURFACES WITH ONLY A COUPLE OF FAINT AND SMALL,WISPY SURFACE MARKS AND I HARDLY HEARD ANY SURFACE NOISE EVEN AT HIGH VOLUME! JUST A LITTLE FAINT CRACKLE AT THE VERY START OF THE QUIET FADE IN AND A FEW ISOLATED FAINT "POPS" IN BETWEEN A FEW OF THE TRACKS AND THAT IS BEING MEGA-STRICT. THIS COPY HAS NOT HAD MANY PLAYS WITH GREAT SOUND! NO LOUD CLICKS,NO STICKS,NO JUMPS,NO CONSTANT SURFACE SWISHES.ALMOST EVERY COPY FROM THE MID-1970s THAT SURVIVES WAS PLAYED A LOT AND AS SUCH GETTING A REALLY DECENT COPY FROM OVER 40 YEARS AGO IS BECOMING A LOT HARDER NOWADAYS. PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS TO OBSERVE THE LABELS HAVE NO WRITING,STICKERS OR FADING.THE STICKERS AND POSTERS ARE BEAUTIFULLY CLEAN HAVING BEEN KEPT INSIDE THE COVER FOR MOST OF THE LAST 40 YEARS.
THE STICKERS HAVE THE "FASPRINT"/"CRACK BACK" CREDITS AT THE BACK.
THE POSTERS HAVE A COUPLE OF TINY TEARS AT TWO EDGES OF BOTH OF THEM AND A LITTLE EDGE WEAR BUT NO PIN HOLES,SELLOTAPE,BLUE TAC ETC. THEY HAVE NOT BEEN DISPLAYED AND STILL VERY PRESENTABLE!
THE INNER HAS THE "PATENTS Nos. 1,125,555" AND "MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN" TEXT. THERE IS A DATE CODE OF 178(JANUARY 1978) BUT THE RECORD INSIDE IS PROBABLY FROM A FEW MONTHS EARLIER AS THE PEAK PRESSING PLANT TIMES WERE USUALLY LATE AUTUMN IN READINESS FOR THE CHRISTMAS MARKET WITH FRESH,NEW PRODUCT BEING PRESSED IN DECEMBER FOR LAUNCH IN JANUARY. EITHER WAY THE FACTS ARE THIS IS CLEARLY A PRESSING THAT IS AROUND 40 YEARS OLD!
PLEASE NOTE THE COVER HAS SOME WEAR AT PART OF THE FRONT AND BACK BOTTOM EDGE WHICH MANY SELLERS WOULD "INK IN" WHICH OF COURSE COULD BE DONE WITH EXTREME CARE BUT IT IS UP TO THE WINNER OF THIS AUCTION AND OF COURSE ANOTHER COVER CAN BE FOUND OR YOU MAY HAVE A REALLY SUPERB ONE WITH A LESS THAN EXCELLENT RECORD INSIDE! THE COVER ALSO HAS A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES AND A LITTLE LIGHT SURFACE/RING WEAR BUT THERE IS NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS. IT COULD WELL BE YOUR LAST OPPORTUNITY TO ADD THIS VINYL L.P.TO YOUR COLLECTION AS GOOD AS THIS BRILLIANTLY CLEAN SOUNDING EXAMPLE!
A LOW,REALISTIC STARTING PRICE OF £12 AND YOU WILL GET A PROMPT AND SOLID PARCEL SO BID WITH TOTAL CONFIDENCE.
