Elvis Costello & The Attractions Imperial Bedroom 1982 Columbia 1A/1A Promo VG+

Description: For sale is Elvis Costello and The Attraction's Imperial Bedroom, originally released in 1982 by Columbia Records. This is a promotional copy with a gold stamp on the cover. In the dead wax between the labels and the last tracks are the matrix numbers 1-A/1-A, signifying that the first stamper was used to make this first pressing, a hallmark of superior sound quality sought after by collectors and music lovers. I bought this record used, professionally cleaned it on my VPI machine and immediately put it into a MFSL archival inner sleeve like I do to all my records. This preserves the integrity of the vinyl and any original insert(s) or inner sleeve(s) that may have come with the album. The inner sleeve is Near Mint. The cover is graded as VG+ because of impressions from someone writing on the cover, ring wear and some normal edge rub. The spine is almost pefect. The vinyl is visually and play graded as VG+ because of surface scratches that produce surface noise most noticeable in the quiet passages and one part with three rotational ticks, but otherwise quite listenable. I have other Rock and Roll albums, as well as records of all genres in my Ebay store. Please take a look. They're almost all Near Mint. Thank you for viewing by listing I've been collecting records for about 50 years now and have always cleaned them and put them away carefully in plastic inner sleeves. Over the years I've used Dust Bugs, Disc Washers and have finally invested in a professional VPI HW-17 record cleaning machine. Now that I'm retiring, I'm selling my very esoteric collection. I'm not a professional grader of records, but will use record guides, as well as my personal experiences as a basis of my grading all records. Since grading is subjective, I will be conservative. I offer discounts for multiple sales. Photos are of the actual item for sale, not a stock photo. Please review all descriptions and photos because I do not accept returns. Thank you for looking!
