ROLLING STONES Their Satanic Majesties Request (Archive Quality 1968 first Japanese issue 10-track deep groove stereo LP, manufactured & imported directly from England with custom made green labels which bear all the hallmarks of a Decca UK press ['Made In England' perimeter print, machine stamped 'ZAL' matrices in the run-outs] but have the 'London/FFRR' export logo at the top. The front laminated gatefold sleeve has the 3D diffraction grating & red flame inner & must be one of the rarest variants to find, also having been made in Britain with the London logo on the back & the 'NPS2' catalogue number [not the same printed sleeve as the UK mono/stereo versions]. Includes the all important Japanese/lyric insert printed in Japan with the "2,200" yen price & "(c)1968" date. We cannot confirm if this ever came with an obi-strip, it's so hard to come by even our Japanese buyer was stumped! The packaging & the vinyl remain in Near Mint condition with few signs of wear or play. A great collector's piece NPS2)
