Firstly I need to say that I am proud to be offering this astonishing reord and I am going to put my neck on the line and say that it is the best record that I have ever put up for auction, I have never seen better example of this record it is simply jaw dropping! I will describe each side and label below and aswell as this I will describe the audio as I have played this all the way through.
SIDE 1~ The label is stunning and as if it was new there is no wear of any kind, strangley this has a ridge around it which I have only seen on the Northern songs 2nd pressings, this label is perfect and graded as MINT-. The vinyl is simply breathtaking and has no marks, every single song plays through with MINT audio. In total side 1 is graded as NEAR MINT.
SIDE 2~ I will start again with the label and again it is pristine with no signs of any wear I cannot even find any slight spidering around the hole, all lettering is perfect, intact and gold. Around the spindle hole there is the early MZT tax code. in all the label is MINT-. The vinyl again plays through every single word perfectly with no sound faults of anykind, if I am being slightly picky there are two faint marks which are small and faint and in no way effect the sound. All in all this whole side is graded as NEAR MINT.
INNER EMITEX SLEEVE~ This is the original and has obviously done the job that it was intended for, it is in EXCLLENT condition with only a small tear on one side.
OUTER SLEEVE~ This is the original Ernest j. Day sleeve with the Angus Mcbean credit in the far right bottom corner. The spine is superb and has not flattened like many do, the front is Excellent and still has a nice shine there is a couple of old sellotape marks which if done properly can be removed. The rear has superb flipbacks which are all still totally intact it does have some slight age browning. in totall this sleeve is graded EXCELLENT. If it was profesionally cleaned it could easily be near mint.
Thankyou for looking and if there are any qustions please ask.
