Visual: NEAR MINT
Both surfaces of this wonderful copy are totally 'as new' and unmarked in strong daylihgt. Close inspection directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp shows up just a sparkling rainbow gloss and a few insignificant, barely viaible wispy paper hairlines but no other blemishes whatsoever.
Play: NEAR MINT
This copy has clearly been barely, if ever played. The silent run-in leads into totally clean, warm and clear tracks which are fault-free throughout. My careful playcheck at volume found no evidence of any background noise or groove/play wear and certainly no ticks, clicks or any other such audible distraction. Even the delicate introductions to 'Something' and 'Here Comes The Sun' play perfectly with no hint of crackle or break-up. I guarantee that you won't be disappointed with this copy.
Cover
NEAR MINT
An immaculate high-gloss example with an undamaged laminate all round - this could have left the shop this morning. Apart from two minute spine wrinkles, the entire cover is free from any wear - there is not even a single 'thumbnail' anywhere. All corners and both opening edges are perfectly sharp, unbruised and totally undamaged. Both seams are perfect, as is the perfectly worded spine. They don't come any better.
Inner-sleeve
NEAR MINT
Apart from an unavoidable light disc impression, this is faultless & 'as new'.
- Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
- I carefully play every record I sell on an EMT 950 turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.
- All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
- All records are professionally & securely in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover.
- Please take a look at my About Me page for more details. All text & images © Bright Field Music 2009
