Vinyl: The Rolling Stones Debut 1st Lp, Original very 1st pressing 1A-1A Short version.

Part of my personal collection i am selling due to other projects, hard to let this rare one go...

Unlike other so called 1st pressings this really is the Original 1st pressing rushed out by mistake with the short version of "Tell me" 2.52 a totally different version of later pressings of 4.06 with only a tiny amount pressed before being withdrawn very soon after,so hardly a few being released.

This is the very rare 1st 1A-1A matrix press, with all the 1st cover spelling mistakes and "mona" on the track listing on sleeve and label.

Made in England, April 1964 LK.4605 Unboxed red DECCA label,Mono.

side 1 matrix run-off XARL-6271-1A MOTHER 1 C

side 2 matrix run-off XARL-6272 1A MOTHER 1 C

also looks like KT at top of run-off both sides which maybe of interest to some.

Now for the Condition;

To find one of these in Excellent condition would i think be almost impossible but put me right if i am wrong.

I would grade this vinyl as VG+ visually, it has hairlines and marks in a few places here and there on both sides nothing deep and plays through almost perfect and would grade it Excellent on playback,really sounds amazing.

The red Decca Labels have no pen marks or damage but have lots of spindle trails as per photos.

Original inner is in Excellent condition no tears or writing.

The Laminated sleeve is VG at least, no rips,tears or writing and is very solid with "The Rolling Stones" very clear on the spine.

Laminate has creasing in places and the back is discoloured from age.

Please see all photos which obviously form part of the description before making an offer.

I would not like a return on this item as i think i have been very honest with the description but if for some reason you are not happy with this item please return within 3 days of delivery in original condition, buyer pays all postage.

will be well packaged in a strong record mailer and sent signed for.

Thanks.
