A really good, clean copy of the first UK pressing of Black Sabbath's Vol 4 vinyl LP catalogue number 6360 076 on the Vertigo Swirl label. I have tested both sides and it plays beautifully, as new. Vinyl is in excellent condition with no visible flaws and plays well so I originally graded it near mint. However, in response to a question, I checked today in bright, midday sun and there are some faint, sparkly, spiders-web type marks on both sides and the run off. However, bright light out of the sun both sides look perfect I can hear no clicks or other interference and there is no damage at all that I can see under natural and artificial light. I've included photos of both.
I started the recording before the needle dropped so you can hear there is no interference in the run-in.
The run off is marked 1Y//1 and 2Y//1 with both "porky" and "pecko" (George Peckham record engineer) etched on it.
This copy does not have the swirl pattern inner sleeve but it appears to be the original one.
The gatefold cover is in excellent, clean condition with just minor loss of paint on the corners and edge as I have shown in the photos. There is a tiny white dot loss of paint on the hair on the first of the colour brochures.

I will combine postage for multiple purchases.
