ORIGINAL UK STEREO RARE 2ND PRESSING.

PCS 3062
YEX 142/3-1-1
NO TAX CODE.
THE BLACK AND YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABELS TO BOTH SIDES ARE IN STUNNING CONDITION. CLOSE INSPECTION UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT REVEALS JUST VERY LIGHT BUT MINIMAL SPINDLE TRAILS, IT SHOULD BE STRESSED THAT THESE REALLY ARE MINIMAL. LABELS ARE SPOTLESS CLEAN AND ALL LETTERING IS INTACT WITH NO RUBBING E.T.C..... LABELS DISPLAY A LIKE NEW APPEARENCE!!!
THE EXTREMLEY GLOSSY AND PERFECTLY FLAT VINYL APPEARS TO HAVE RECIEVED JUST A FEW CAREFUL PLAYS. AGAIN WHEN CLOSELY INSPECTED UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL DISPLAYS JUST VERY LIGHT AND VERY MINIMAL SURFACE MARKS, CERTAINLY NONE ARE SEVERE AND IT IS CLEAR THAT THIS HAS BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER AND HAS NOT BEEN OVERPLAYED !!
AUDIO IS FLAWLESS... BOTH RUNI IN/OFF GROOVES ARE SILENT AS ARE THE TRACK GROOVES. THE VINYL PLAYS WITH NO SKIPS, POPS OR JUMPS AND THE STEREO SOUND IS CLEAR AND CRISP THROUGHOUT... A REAL JOY TO LISTEN TO!!
THE ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE INNER IS STUNNING. IT DISPLAYS VERY LIGHT CREASES BUT FAR LESS THAN WOULD BE EXPECTED. THE INNER IS STILL VERY CRISP AND STILL ITS TRUE WHITE COLOUR!!
THE OUTER AND VERY FLIMSEY GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS SUPERB GIVEN ITS AGE (THESE SLEEVES TENDED NOT TO SURVIVE VERY WELL). THE SLEEVE DISPLAYS SOME LIGHT CREASES TO BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR BUT NOTHING REALLY SERIOUS. THERE IS SOME MINOR CORNER AND EDGE WEAR EVIDENT BUT AGAIN THIS IS NOT SEVERE. THE SPINE IS STILL INTACT AND IS STILL RIGID WITH FACTORY PICHED ENDS,TH ESPINE DISPLAYS SOME MINOR CREASEING. THE INNER FOLDOVER SEAMS ALL LIE PERFECTLY FLAT WITH NO CREASES. THE SLEEVE IS EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN AND STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL GLOSS AND BRIGHTNESS.
OVERALL A TOP QUALITY EXAMPLE OF THIS RARE UK STEREO 2ND ISSUE WHICH OFFERS SUPERB LABELS, BARELY PLAYED VINYL, FLAWLESS AUDIO AND A SUPERB STEREO SLEEVE
COPIES IN THIS CONDITION JUST DO NOT SURFACE FOR SALE THAT OFTEN!!!!!
