Description from the seller

RARE US 1968 PROMO 7" SINGLE
Pink Floyd – Let There Be More Light / Remember A Day (Tower 440)

This is an extremely rare and highly sought-after original 1968 US Promotional 7" single by Pink Floyd, featuring the early psychedelic tracks "Let There Be More Light" and "Remember A Day." This specific release is essential for any serious collector of Pink Floyd's early, post-Syd Barrett era material.

Please see photos. Vinyl is shiny, has almost invisible signs, not affect play, a strong VG+/EX in any case, a wonderful, well preserved 7'' single, a truly "Must Have" for every serious fan.

Key Collectible Features:
• PROMO ISSUE: This is a promotional copy, meaning it was intended for radio station play and was not sold commercially, making it significantly scarcer than retail copies.
• STYRENE PRESSING: The record is pressed on styrene, the typical material for US promos of the period.
• ALLIED PRESSING: Confirmed by the runout etchings, this copy was pressed by the Allied Record Company (indicated by X-6193/X-6194).
• UNIQUE VARIANT: This specific pressing features the rare identification characteristic: 'A' above the Tower logo is noticeably closer than on other Tower 440 variants, confirming its unique collectible status.
