THE SLEEVE

THE FRONT-LAMINATED GARROD & LOFTHOUSE SLEEVE, WITH THE LARGE “MONO” ON THE FRONT AND THREE REAR FLIP-BACKS, IS IN EXCELLENT++ CONDITION WITH THE SLIGHTEST WEAR EVIDENT IN THE LAMINATION. THERE ARE THREE TINY WRINKLES IN THE LAMINATION. THE BACK HAS HARDLY ANY DISCOLOURATION. ALL FOUR CORNERS AND THE EDGES ARE ALL NEARLY PERFECT. I CAN ONLY SEE A FEW TINY ABRASIONS TO THE OPENING. THE SPINE IS SQAURE AND STRAIGHT WITH ALL TEXT PERFECTLY VISIBLE. THIS GREAT SLEEVE WILL LOOK FANTASTIC ON ANY SHELF OR RACK!!

THE INNER SLEEVE

THIS RECORD COMES COMPLETE WITH AN ORIGINAL TISSUE-LINED “EMITEX” INNER-SLEEVE, WHICH IS IN EXCELLENT- CONDITION, WITH SOME LIGHT TANNING AND MINOR WEAR AS WELL AS A FEW WRINKLES.

THE VINYL

VISUALLY THE HEAVY, GLOSSY BLACK VINYL IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT  I CAN SEE SOME LIGHT MARKS AND SCUFFS. WHEN I OBSERVED THE LP ROTATING ON MY PROJECT RPM 4 I DETECTED A SLIGHT WARP BUT THIS DID NOT PREVENT OR SEEM TO EFFECT PLAYBACK. THE SOUND QUALITY WAS GENERALLY EXCELLENT THROUGHOUT. I HAVE JUST FINISHED LISTENING TO THIS GREAT ALBUM AND I DID NOTE SOME VERY SLIGHT INTERFERENCE BUT ONLY BETWEEN TRACKS AND PRIMARILY DURING SIDE ONE, THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO CLICKS OR JUMPS.

THE LABELS

THE BLACK & YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABELS, WITH SILVER TEXT, ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH PLENTY OF LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS AND A FEW OTHER SLIGHT MARKS. BOTH OF THESE LABELS HAVE THE “THE PARLOPHONE CO LTD ...” AND “RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED 1963” TEXT. THEY DO NOT HAVE “SOLD IN THE UK” TEXT.
