FOR ONCE THERE IS FULL HISTORY WITH THIS ULTRA RARE PROMOTIONAL LP:- It is very VERY rare indeed to have FULL history of any LP today. And it is even RARER to know a FULL history of a factory sample PROMOTIONAL LP. Many factory samples have had stickers put on them at the later date, are fake printed ones, and even more laughably they are often the wrong ones Every different company used different factory sample stickers and some just didn t use them at all like Pye for example so they are not inter-changeable So it is very VERY important indeed to have the FULL history of a Factory Sample LP to 100 GUARANTEE it is 100 GENUINE which I am VERY happy to do in this case . The 1 previous owner of this LP worked for the UK s BIGGEST record shop chain in the 1960s and 1970s namely Woolworths. And for those outside of the UK who don t know? Woolworths literally had a shop in almost EVERY town in the UK in the 1960s, and at one point took up 65 of the UK market share in record sales. The 1 previous owner of this LP worked in Woolworths head office, in the music department compiling the charts for the record stores each week, monitoring sales stock control , and deciding along with others which LP was going to be stocked in Woolworths stores in any given week. And this was a very VERY big deal indeed for any band If your LP was stocked by Woolworths in the 1960s and 1970s it was almost GUARANTEED to sell VERY well indeed. Whereas if Woolworths decided not to stock your LP, you had to rely on the independent record shops only, and sales would undoubtedly be very poor indeed And so almost every record company sent copies of their LPs into Woolworths to promote their LPs, along with what were in many cases begging letters Especially with new bands as it was VERY hard to get Woolworths to stock them. And even the biggest artists who were guaranteed to be stocked in Woolworths, sent in LPs and letters to try and gain a better shelf space than their competitors. Clearly after the LPs came in, and decisions were taken 99 of them were thrown away. And of course, whilst Demos were sent to Radio Stations, Woolworths didn t play their LPs on the radio and so they were sent Factory Samples instead. According to the 1 previous owner, they were free for ANYONE to take home at any time after they had been evaluated. After all, clearly there was no use for them at Woolworths head office This 1 previous owner amassed a collection of over 600 LPs in his time at Woolworths. Many were classical and some were mainstream Jazz neither of which has any interest to me . However he did have a small selection of 1960s pop, beat, rock, and blues which will be appearing in the coming weeks of which this LP is just one from that collection. IMPORTANTLY all the stickers are 100 GENUINE in EVERY way, and each record company has the CORRECT sticker. So you can tell immediately that these Factory Sample LPs are 100 CORRECT and 100 GENUINE in EVERY respect This is just one 1 LP from this AMAZING collection so please read on below:-

MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS I always undercharge on postage :- Due to UK Royal Mail s obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little.

However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100 guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out. Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself. On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package please check it when you recieve it . I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference.
