Driftwood - Original 1970 UK 12-track Vinyl LP

1970 UK Decca label 12-track LP - soft melodic folk tinged pop one-off from British rock combo.

Vinyl has the generic blue and silver company labels - with upper boxed company logo - machine stamped matrix information:

Side 1: ZAL-10106.P-2W, mother/stamper 1U
Side 2: ZAL-10107.P-2W, mother/stamper 1U
since there is no evidence of a pressing with -1W matrix ending and this copy sold extremely poorly, we believe this to be the first issue - the 1U mother/stamper information indicates that this specific copy was within the first 600 copies pressed.

Vinyl is housed in a generic blue and white polylined Decca inner sleeve and ultimately in a slightly glossy Senol Printing Ltd. picture cover.

Condition: VG+(+) (Vinyl and Labels)/VG (Cover):
Vinyl is beautifully lustrous and has what might be a couple of extremely light surface marks... then again they might be sleeve marks - combined with ultra fine sleeve wear - grading is conservative and reflects the worser of the two describtions. Labels has from a single or two to less than a handfull spindlemarks scattered within the centre ring - overall grading is close to near perfect/excellent.
Front cover and back cover has some light wrinkling along vinyl outline, from edges and in some corner areas - front has light imprint of vinyl and a partially mended upper tag tear.
Seams and edges are intact with light discontinued wear - spine has light flattening - corners has light to some wear and light dents - cover is overall graded VG.
