Side 2: DLLPX-1 -B-1
!YOU CANNOT GET ANY EARLIER!
'ARUN' Etched into both sides' run-out groove.

The vinyl: EX++/NMint! Superb condition with equally superb audio reproduction...Just dust and some incredibly light wispy marks from simple removal and replacement of the inner.
IT HAS A RED TRANSLUCENT COLOUR WHEN HELD TO THE LIGHT.

The Labels: EX+...Lovey, clean and bright. Just a small amount of blooming, evident only when angled towards the light.

The GATEFOLD Sleeve: EX. Superbly strong and UNRUSHED spine. Lovely colours-all clean and without writing. Only thing is some slight rubbing to the edges-nothing bad at all.
ALL FIRST PRESSING

The Poster: NEAR MINT! Looks to have been unfolded only a couple of times-would look magical framed.

The Booklets: NEAR MINT....Once again, they look as if they've only been open a couple of times in their life-Lovely colours and sharp corners.

The Inner: EX...Just some age discolouration-that is it. No splits or writing and all original.

SO FOLKS-IF YOU WANT A TOP OF THE RANGE ELTON JOHN CAPTAIN FANTASTIC LP, ALL COMPLETE AND IN SUPERB SHAPE-THIS IS THE ONE FOR YOU.
I SEE MANY OTHERS WITH A2 & B2 MATRICIES-BUT NOT MANY WITH A1/B1!!
