Original 1st UK pressing of the Sex Pistols “Never Mind The Bollocks” LP as released on 28th October 1977
This is the first pre main press “SPOTS 001” 11 track version which omits Submission from the LP and includes it instead as a single sided 7” single.

The vinyl is in great condition with only a few very very minor sleeve removal scuffs when viewed under strong light only. Visually grades EX. The single is also in EX+ condition. It is fully play tested and plays with lovely clear audio throughout except for a few very very light crackles on the run ins. The spaces between tracks are very quiet and the audio is exceptional with no background noise or any other issues. Great copy! The single also plays perfectly. EX+
The original sleeve (which omits “Submission” from the track listing on the rear is in EX+ condition too. Very very minor edge wear at most. The colours are bright with no fading. No splits, no creases, no writing or other wear. Really nice condition. EX+
The original plain inner has some discolouration and grades VG+. The single inner is also VG+. I have included a new poly lined inner for the LP and card inner for single.
Also included is a facsimile copy of the original poster Jamie Reid artwork poster. THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL POSTER. Everything else included (records, outer and inner sleeves) are original.
Overall this is a superb and rare example of the first pressing of the Sex Pistols only studio album.
