USED - David Bowie - Hunky Dory

Condition

Media: Very Good (VG) — Few surface hairlines. Some marks and scratches are a bit deeper and would be audible, between G+ and VG. Visually graded.
Sleeve: Very Good (VG) — Picture is intact. Edges of the outer sleeve got eaten out by silverfish and neatly taped on on some places. Back cover looks good too with faint stains. Outer sleeve has some creases and folds + a few lyrics corrections with a pen.

Notes

US Pressing. Has the following characteristics: Even Black Frame around front photo Textured front cover No Title Written on Front Cover Sepia Toned Back Cover Hand Etched Matrices (Rockaway Pressing Only) Orange Label Some had "invisible" NOT FOR SALE for promotion only stamped on jacket corner Rockaway pressing (New York) - first use of the master tape after being sent from England (for worldwide distribution from New York). The following notes are taken from "The Illustrated db Discography forums". http://www.illustrated-db-discography.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5200&p=27940#p27940 There were three pressing plants in the US - Rockaway, Indiana and Hollywood. the other two were 1S, 2S and they have a small H or I in the run out Rockaway is the only one scratched the others are stamped. A from the first father 3 third mother N 14th stamper They would fill up sleeves with records until one or the other ran out. 1 father 10 mothers 10 stampers from each mother these are just averages and each stamper averages 1000 -1500 albums. Sometimes they might fault at 700 or 2000. Why the matrices are different on each side Midway through the first pressing, the ran out of the original stickers for the shrink wrap and started using a different sticker. The early part of this first pressing has a clear sticker on the shrink wrap. The later part of the first pressing has a mottled brown sticker on the shrink wrap. 'A GEM PRODUCTION' Runouts are etched. Front cover art work by my good friends George Underwood & his partner Terry of Main Artory (London)
