CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT +
Both are clean & bright with a small collection of spindle trails to each centre hole.
Visual: EXCELLENT +
This extremely well cared for copy has immacuate deep-gloss surafces which have no clouding or dulling to any area and any significant wear in strong daylight. Close examination directly beneath my halogen desk lamp reveals a sparkling rainbow gloss together with a few very faint surface lines. The only major blemish I could find was a tiny 1mm mark on 'Yellow Submarine' which is just feelable. Both sides of this great copy lie 100% flat on the turntable with no signs of dishing or warping.
Play: EXCELLENT +
This wonderful sounding copy has recieved just a small amount of extremely careful play on high-end equipment. I am happy to report that the sound is 'as new' throughout with no traces of any groove/playwear distortion or any background noise anywhere. Even the easily damaged tracks such as; 'Eleanor Rigby', 'Here There & Everywhere' & 'Yellow Submarine' are totally unworn. My careful play check found just two light clicks on 'Yellow Submarine' due to the aforementioned mark but both run-ins and all bands play silently and there are absolutely no other distractions elsewhere on this superb copy.
Cover
EXCELLENT +
A fine strong, clean & undamaged example. The front laminate is bright & white, retaining its high-gloss finish with no 'thumbnails' or spine bends. All corners are perfectly square and unbumped and both opening edges are undamaged. The rear panel is perfectly clean & black where it should be with no significant blemishes, writing or missing paper. All flipbacks, seams and the fully worded spine are smooth and totally undamaged.
Inner-sleeve
VERY GOOD +
Some age-toing but no major wear or damage.
- Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
