THE BLACK AND YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABELS ARE IN STUNNING CONDITION TO BOTH SIDES. LABELS HAVE JUST VERY LIGHT AND MINIMAL SPINDLE MARKS (VISIBLE MAINLY UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT), THERE IS NO SPINDLE WEAR PRESENT. LABELS CARRY "THE GRAMMOPHONE CO" RIM TEXT AND "SOLD IN UK" TEXT. LABELS ARE SPOTLESSLY CLEAN AND ALL WORDING IS CRISP AND VIVID.
THE GLOSSY HEAVY WEIGHT VINYL IS RELLY SUPERB JUST LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND A VISIBLE HAIRLINE TO SIDE ONE (THIS IS NOT SEVERE AND IS NOT "FEELABLE") AGAIN THESE ARE REALLY ONLY VISIBLE UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT.
AUDIO IS SUPERB.... THERE MAYBE A HINT OF CRACKLE TO RUN IN/OFF GROOVES BUT NOTHING MORE THAN THAT. AUDIO IS CLEAR AND CRISP.
THE ORIGINAL INNER IS ALSO IN SUPERB CONDITION GIVEN ITS AGE AND DISPLAYS JUST VERY LIGHT SIGNS OF HANDLING.
THE OUTER GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE "PATENTS PENDING" LAMINATED SLEEVE IS REALLY EXCELLENT IT DOES DISPLAY SOME CREASING TO THE FRONT BUT THIS IS MINIMAL. THE EDGES AND CORNERS DISPLAY SOME WEAR. THE SLEEVE IS INTACT AND ALL SEAMS ARE FLAT AND CREASE FREE WITH NO LIFTING. THE SPINE IS STILL PERFECTLY RIDGID AND ALL WORDING IS READABLE AND CRISP. THE SLEEVE IS EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN AND THE REAR STILL RETAINS ITS TRUE WHITE COLOUR WITH JUST A FEW HANDLING MARKS.....
BACK IN THE 1960'S ANY RECORDS BOUGHT FROM BRAIN EPSTEIN RECORD STORE IN LIVERPOOL CAME IN A "NEMS" PLASTIC SLEEVE, THESE SLEEVES WHERE OFTEN DISCARDED OR JUST DIDNT SURVIVE THAT WELL MAKING THEM VERY RARE TODAY.
THIS COPY COMES COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL "NEMS" SLEEVE . THE SLEEVE HAS SURVIVED REALLY WELL AND IS INTACT WITH NO SPLITS OR TEARS AND SHOWS LITTLE SIGNS OF AGE..... REALLY SUPERB.
OVERALL THIS REALLY IS A SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THIS 1ST UK MONO LOUD CUT PRESSING WHICH OFFERS SUPERB VINYL, SLEEVE AND AUDIO AND COMES WITH ITS ORIGINAL "NEMS" SLEEVE DIRECT FROM LIVERPOOL !!!!!!!!!
