Probably a “Presswell” disc, as most usually are. No seam splits or cover bends. Shrink wrap has “breathe” holes and is still tight and unbroken. No song sticker, unfortunately. $350, OBO. Also have still sealed mono “Got Live If You Want It” London LL 3493, no hype sticker. Same condition as above. $100, OBO. Contact me for pictures. Email: dwblackvalentine69@gmail.com

I remember during the 1970s, ordering imports of this album. When the record store would call to tell me the album had arrived, the first question I asked was, "Is the zipper up or down?" If the zipper was up I wouldn't buy it because it meant it was pressed into the vinyl and was therefore defective. And here the record stores thought they were putting one over a very smart 15 year old! I remember my parents were having a sort of cocktail party or some such gathering.
Here I was, a few feet away, saying into the telephone, "Is the zipper up or down?" It elicited a few comments. Oh, The Rolling Stones and the good they've done me over the years!

Many first pressings were warped and unplayable due to the zipper...they had to figure out that they couldn't be stacked straight up in the boxes they were shipped in...
