Description: Dear Ebay Community,Up for auction from The AURUM Vault is my exceptional copy of THE PINK FLOYD: The Dark Side of the Moon UK Harvest 1973 1st pressing LP - in top shelf rarer condition. I have owned this specimen since about 2012ish and purchased it on EBAY at auction. It is still in my transaction history since my purchase of this ICONIC album, I have monitored Ebay for comparable specimens, and I have found that I can count on two hands how many I have encountered that are as well preserved as this specimen that I am offering for one's consideration.Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the MoonUK 1st Pressing A2/B2SOLID Blue Triangle label LPHARVEST RECORDS STEREO - SHVL 804Midnight Blue-Tinged Gatefold Sleeve (WITHOUT adhering STICKER (more desirable in my opinion and why I specifically purchased this item as Nothing obscuring the cover). Certainly, indicative of 1st Press.Rear Sleeve - Large inverted Triangle - Top right SHVL 804 (IE 064-05249) Stereo.MATRIX STAMPER - Side 1 = SHVL 804 A-2 Pending/Side 2 = SHVL 804 B-2 Pending (will update soon)Complete with all original inserts - Black poly-lined inner sleeve,2 posters & 2 Stickers. The sticker and posters are nice and vibrant please see pictures. The Black inner is 100% intact no splits.The labels are in near excellent condition but please see pictures.I played the vinyl once and there are no skips. There is one superficial faint surface mark at the 4 O'clock position that does not affect play or audio, and I strongly suspect this will clean out with a deep ultrasound cleaning.Please note I HAVE NEVER CLEANED THIS RECORD. IT HAS BEEN STORED AS IS SINCE MY ACQUISTION or purchase from EBAY some 13 years ago and could definitely benefit from a deep cleaning to enhance its visible shine and shimmering audiophile listing experience.MY CRITICAL INSPECTION GOLDMINES CRITERIA: GATEFOLD(NM-): with some wear to corners as seen in photographs but retains its flat dusky dark blue texture and color. Some very faint ring wear on REVERSE ONLY as seen in photos. THERE AREN NO SPLITS ANYWHERE ON THE SLEEVE OR GATEFOLD.Vinyl (VG): Retains all its original shinny appeal with few faint wispy lines visible under incandescent light only and one faint superficial scuff at 4 O'CLOCK position SIDE 2 that does NOT SKIP or AFFECT PLAY.LABELS: I would say some spider webbing SIDE 1/SIDE 2 NEAR MINT with NO noticeable flaws as seen in photographsAccessories are all in NEAR MINT CONDITION as seen in photographs.ALL CONSISENT WITH INFORMATION ON THE PINK FLOYD ARCHIVAL PAGE NOW ONTO THE FORMALITIES,ITEM SHIPS VIA USPS PRIORITY MAIL AND COMES INSURED FOR FULL VALUE.SHIPS TO LOWER 48 STATES ONLY.RETURNS ACCEPTED (OF COURSE I WILL TAKE BACK MY STELLAR FLOYD DSOTM LP IF SOMEONE IS NOT HAPPY WITH IT).
