Nr EX condition on this 1970 1st Pressing 636050-1Y1 and 636050-2Y1,
Nr EX copy a real timepiece , has surface lines, removal scuffs, see photos, stored upright in PVC jacket for many years.removal scuffs under strong light, still a finders dream with near ex cover and poster! plays incredible with some light background noise could benefit from a professional clean, we don't do this its a personal thing. some light "clicks " in the quieter passages intro to *Solitude* but the overall volume of the music is easily enjoyable on the soon to be 47 year old, super shiny clean fat pre oil crisis 70s vinyl (see pics) great swirl labels...
the original "Swirl" inner is absent, a faithfull reproduction "Swirl" inner with a new lined sleeve is supllied.
The Cover Near Ex Condition Great incredible original 1971 `Embossed Box cover` super rare now "high gloss laminate finish" a real find with almost zero ringwear to rear, no writing stickers or tape to report. Very hard to find in this condition.
the top opening cover normally suffers this one is in good order with no serious damage, only some light laminate cracks as normal with this box sleeve,
nothing too serious no rips or *worrying faults!* its got storage wear but in good order for almost 47 years! only laminate creasing keeping it away from EX .
very light rounding at corners , no splits or tears to worry about. no writing stickers or tape to report. no worrying faults.... the reproduction poster is really nice quality clear clean and not a lot of handling evident, truly a collectors find. no holes, tape or writing and no worrying faults a great sleeve that would be *Excellent* only the laminate on lid cracking a little and lines keeping it nr ex, a nice rare box cover not too flatened like many.
any questions look at pics and ask..... (wifes cushion is not included!)
pictures in the listing are of the item for sale " what you see is what you get here"
Plays without any skips or jumps, amazing bass on this , may benefit from a professional clean (we don't do this as it's an individual thing) background static is noticeable in the quieter passages and some clicks nothing to disrupt playing no sticks or jumps on our Rega 3.
any questions please ask!
