CONDITION

Disc

Labels: MINT

A perfect set with no spindle trails or wear to, or around, either centre hole.

Visual: EXCELLENT

Each playing surface retains all of their 'as new' deep-gloss shines. There are two or three light surface scuffs on side 1 and a harmless sleeve removal/storage blemish on side 2 which does not affect the sound. Both sides lie 100% flat on the turntable when playing.

Play: NEAR MINT

This copy has received less than handful of careful plays on high-end equipment and the sound throughout is wonderful & flawless.

Cover: EXCELLENT

A fine example of this easily worn cover which retains a perfectly unworn high-gloss laminate all round. The front panel is perfectly clean & glossy with just a single 'thumbnail' wrinkle towards the opening edge but no other signs or wear. There is a small bend to the lower right corner but otherwise all others and both opening edges are unworn. The easily blemished rear panel is clean & unscratched with just a fewl of tiny wrinkles to the edges. Both seams and the fully worded spine unstressed & unsplit.

Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT

Clean & flat with minor storage wrinkling but no writing, seam splits or tears.
