VINYL CONDITION
Visual:
SIDE ONE - VG
SIDE TWO - VG
SIDE THREE - VG
SIDE FOUR - VG
ALL FOUR SIDES ARE VERY SIMILIAR IN REGARD TO VISUAL CONDITION. THE VINYL IS SUPER CLEAN AND GLOSSY. A CLOSE AND CAREFUL INSPECTION BENEATH A BRIGHT LIGHT SOURCE REVEALS WISPY SLEEVE REMOVAL TRACES, A FEW VERY LIGHT HAIRLINES AND LIGHT SURFACE SCUFFS. THESE DO NOT EFFECT THE OVER ALL PLAY OF THIS LP IN THE LEAST
Audio:
SIDE ONE - NM / all tracks play superbly...no faults
SIDE TWO - VG+ / despite a few very very light static pops at the very end of Martha My Dear and a few random soft pops during I'm So Tired the remainder of this side plays without fault...even this sides most exposed track I Will plays perfectly!
SIDE THREE - NM / fantastic sounding side..the most exposed track Mother Natures Son plays perfectly and sounds absolutely beautiful.
SIDE FOUR - EX+ / the odd very soft static pop during this sides most exposed moments and during the very begining of Revolution #9.
Labels:
SIDE ONE - EX
SIDE TWO - EX
SIDE THREE - EX
SIDE FOUR - EX
LABELS ARE IN EXCELENT CONDITION...NICE AND CLEAN...NO MAJOR WEAR OR FAULTS. EACH SIDE SHOWS THE SAME TYPE OF LIGHT SPINDLE TRACES. THESE CAN ONLY BE SEEN WHEN THE LP IS HELD AT AN ANGLE
Sleeve: EX / Beautiful laminated *TOP LOADING* Garrod and Lofthouse sleeve, stamped issue: No.0158334. Sleeve is still very white...nice and clean..super GLOSSY. No major faults..no tears..no rips or splits. Minor ring wear and only the smallest amount of shelf/handling wear to corners and seams. Very slight top right corner bend.
Poster & Photo's: VG / Poster appears to have not been opened often. There are no holes or tears and despite a few light age spots the poster is still white and in very good condition. The four photo's are also in super condition with only a touch of outer edge wear and a some light age spots along a border or two.

All records are shipped inside protective plastic covers. I use professional mailers and two protective stiffeners. When posting, I always separate records from their covers and original inner sleeves (if original inner is present) to prevent seam splits during shipping
THIS LP WEIGHS AS MUCH, IF NOT MORE, THAN TWO INDIVIDUAL LP'S. THEREFORE, AN ADDITIONAL $1.00 WILL BE ADDED TO YOUR SHIPPING FEE
