SECONDLY THE LABELS ALSO HAVE THE CORRECT 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'GRAMOPHONE COMPANY' LABEL EDGE TEXT (LATER PRESSINGS HAD THIS CHANGED THIS TO 'EMI RECORDS' TEXT INSTEAD!)!!!! THIRDLY THE RECORD LABELS HAVE THE ULTRA RARE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'SOLID LIGHT BLUE' TRIANGLE ON BOTH SIDES - WHICH WAS IMMEDIATELY CHANGED TO THE COMMON 'TRANSPARENT' TRIANGLE (WHICH APPEARS ON ALL LATER PRESSINGS!) AS THE TEXT WAS HARD TO READ (AND IT DIDNT MATCH THE COVER!)!!!!

No is SHVL 804 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Solid Light Blue Triangle' Harvest label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!!
The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO stickers, NO writing, NO wear, and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS ONLY EVER BEEN PLAYED 2 OR 3 TIMES AT THE VERY MOST!!!! The vinyl is in absolutely AWESOME condition!!!! Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, NO hairlines, NO scufflines, only 2 or 3 absolutely ULTRA light TINY surface traces, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOKS AMAZING!!!! It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!! It plays with NO pops, NO jumps, NO sticks, NO hiss, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!! Importantly there are NO jumps on the track 'Money' (most do!) - with this track (and the rest of the LP!) playing through without ANY tracking issues AT ALL!!!! The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!! The record must grade MINT(Minus)!!!! AWESOME RECORD!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press Black Textured 'Poly-Lined' Silver Text inner sleeve which is in SUPERB condition - with NO repairs, PERFECT 'poly-lining', NO fraying, and NO splits AT ALL!!!! THE ULTRA RARE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 2 'SHINY' POSTERS AND 2 'FASPRINT' STICKERS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY AWESOME CONDITION - AND CLEARLY HAVENT EVER LEFT THE COVER!!!! The ULTRA RARE 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Dark Blue' Gatefold Cover is in absolutely AWESOME condition - and is easily the VERY best conditioned 1st Press cover I have EVER seen!!!! It has NO edge wear (STUNNING straight unworn edges!), NO spinal wear (AWESOME straight & vertical spine with NO wear AT ALL!), barely ANY corner wear AT ALL (virtually NONE and a SUPERB square shape to ALL corners!), an absolutely AWESOME original 1st Press 'Dark Blue' colour, NO sticker marks, NO sticker tears, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL (virtually NONE!), absolutely NO ringwear AT ALL, NO writing impressions, barely ANY creases AT ALL (virtually NONE, and the cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), NO rips, NO tears, NO splits, only some very VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to a couple of the corner tips, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!! Even the inside of the cover is in AWESOME condition with NO yellowing, NO rubbing, NO ringwear, NO grubbyness, and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Excellent++++ if not better - and I am VERY sure most people would grade MINT(Minus) here!!!! WHAT AN AWESOME COVER!!!!
