The Rolling Stones – Aftermath – UK Stereo Press –
“Early UK pressing from the first production phase, with original -1W lacquer on Side 1 and early -2W recut on Side 2.”

UNPLAYED MINT – Rare Purple Shadow Cover
Provenance & Story:
The record was acquired from the private collection of an 81-year-old gentleman with a background in the music industry. I originally contacted him to purchase a Tandberg reel-to-reel tape recorder for spare parts. Upon meeting, he offered me his entire collection of 500 vinyl records. While I wasn't looking for a large collection, I spotted a few gems that had been kept in pristine condition since the 1960s. This Aftermath was one of the stand-out pieces—received by him directly upon its release in 1966 and never played.
