For dedicated audiophiles and collectors of vintage British rock history, this specific copy features the desirable original black and silver Parlophone label with its classic 4-pronged centre design. It bears the sought-after 1N/1N matrix endings, with side A stamped 7XCE 17248-1N MT2 M and side B stamped 7XCE 17249-1N MT JR, indicating the earliest possible mastering run.

This vintage record is graded in Good condition. The vinyl surface exhibits a number of visible surface marks. While it plays completely through without skipping, listeners will experience audible clicks and pops during playback. We have made this piece available specifically due to its historical rarity and structural collectability rather than its audio fidelity.
