(SOUNDS GREAT)
There are only very light marks to her, visible when angled towards the light. After giving her a gentle professional clean; firstly using a vacuum record cleaner, I then popped her into an Ultrasonic bath and finally, to suck up anything left in the grooves-once more on the vacuum record cleaning machine...I then played her all the way through.....She was a simple joy to listen too.
Deep lows, crisp highs with wonderful clarity throughout.
Barely any background noise at all...Just some occasional light background crackle, but nothing offensive at all.
The run ins and out were nice and quiet...Have a listen to the track sample I have uploaded, to hear for yourselves.
Lovely rich sound from an incredibly early pressing of a revolutionary album!!
As shiny as the day she was born.
As flat as the day she was born too.
&
STILL SOUNDS AS REVOLUTIONARY AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN!
GORGEOUS DIFF MIX OF TOMORROW NEVER KNOWS
Labels:
EX.
Lovely and clean.
"SOLD IN THE U.K." central text., BUT with the extra dot in the statement to side 1, as can be seen in the detailed images provided.
"THE GRAMOPHONE CO.." rim text.
Only a small handful of very light spindle marks, visible only when angled to the light.
Minimal central hole wear.
NO stickers, lifting or writing.
KT Tax code to side 1.
"DR ROBERT" on the side two label.
The track listing is from left to right with singer coming before composer, with each track having it’s own line-a true very 1st pressing here.
Sleeve:
EX+
Lovely and white with very sharp corners and perfectly intact flipbacks too.
Small MONO to the top right corner.
There are only 2 small crescents of spidering to the laminate near the opening, with a few small fingers of spidering emanating from the edges.....That really is it.
LEGIBLE & UNCRUSHED spine!
Wonderfully strong Garrod & Lofthouse flipbacks with "Patents Pending."
NO WRITING/RIPS or TEARS
NO discolouration.
Only a light outline to the back card, showing where this record has been stored for the last 58 years
PLEASE SEE THE DETAILED IMAGES PROVIDED AND READ MY HONEST FEEDBACK FOR TRUE GRADINGS AND CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
Inner:
NEAR MINT!
Original and increasingly rare 1st printing run with the much rarer text: "PATENTS APPLIED FOR" Use Emitex inner, with tracing-paper-lined inner.
She only carries some very light discolouration and two little spots to one side-see if you can spot them in the images provided-they are tiny.
NO RIPS/SPLITS OR TEARS
ALL ORIGINAL
Done her job in keeping the record in a great condition.
ALL IN ALL THIS IS THE RARER MIX OF TOMORROW NEVER KNOWS
-IN A COMPLETE & VERY EARLY PACKAGE-
SOUNDS WONDERFUL
&
LOOKS MAGICAL
SO GRAB YERSELF A PIECE OF TRUE HISTORY-NOT MANY PEOPLE HAVE THIS MONO COPY, NOT WITH THE TYPO ERROR TO SIDE 1 AND ALL COMPLETE WITH THE RARER PATENTS APPLIED FOR INNER TOO!
(Reasonable price as I am quite happy to keep her if she doesn't sell :)
