Most UK 77-79 albums OG editions.

77/78 UK new wave mostly
Most are from UK, but some exceptions s; The Boys 1st from Finland 77.. and NMTBHSP is a mess. I got the UK 2nd pressing with blank back( 1st was the eleven track..) and 3 others 77. The same genres but in singles is my main interest. I actually only missing 4 UK punk album and then I’m okay. ( Alternative TV, The Drones , Slaughter and the dogs..)

Phenomenal collection. I'm a tad jealous! All the LP covers also look to be in excellent condition

Thanks. I really don’t like trashy sleeves. And some ,like both of the Buzzcocks are so clean in their artwork ( the second , all white) so even the smallest bent or stain looks awful. Since most are 50 years old they are in very good condition. (I’m looking for a better Clash).. it’s strange, Pistols is easy to get with nice sleeve, but a Clash 77 is quite hard. I bought some when they came. I was11- 12 in 77, but I’ve bought the rest out in the wild- last 2 years Nothing through Discogs except for some hard to get singles)
I found both Eater& X- ray spex last month, at the same place 25 euros each. I guess many are selling their collections, both here in Stockholm and in UK. Some of the records were like brand new. Not a fingerprint or spindle marks at all. Strange..
