MANFRED MANNS EARTH BAND Messin’ UK 1ST VERTIGO N.Mint

Manfred Mann’s Earth Band – Messin’
LP UK 1973
Vertigo Records 6360 087

Condition (record/cover): NM/NM

I've just come across a collection of nearly mint original UK presses from the 60's and 70's. They have all been very carefully stored from new.

Here is your chance to buy a near mint copy of Manfred Mann’s Earth Band’s classic album from 1973 Messin’. This is the first UK pressing in absolute superb condition! It has a die-cut front to the gatefold sleeve and comes complete with its original polythene-lined inner sleeve ”Plastic bags can be danderous …” - which is in mint condition also. The record has the first press spaceship design Vertigo labels, also MINT condition!

Matrix Nos: 6360087 1/2 420 / 6360087 2/2 420

This spectacular gatefold cover looks like it could have left the shops this morning. No upgrade required here. Please look at my pictures because words can't really describe how wonderful this copy is. I do my best to show the record and cover from all angels.

The vinyl has immaculate deep-gloss playing surfaces which are completely unmarked in strong daylight with hardly no sign of play at all. The record is in brilliant condition, shining like it was just pressed. When I carefully play-check it, it sounds as great as it looks. The sound quality is simply superb!

Any questions, just ask.

~~Price: £40~~ SOLD

I use Record collectors grading system:

Mint:
The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as sealed or unplayed should be mint.

Excellent:
The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and or/ creasing.

Very Good:
The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioation in sound quality, despite noticeably surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

Good:
The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deterioreated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
