THE LABELS
THE PICTURE LABEL IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE
THE WHITE SIDE SIS ALSO PERFECT
THE BLACK TYPEFACE REMAINS UNRUBBED AND IN PRISTINE CONDITION
THERE ARE JUST 3-4 SMALL SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE RECORD
SUPERB GLOSSY VINYL THAT IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS
UNDER SPOTLIGHTS IT STILL LOOKS INCREDIBLE, WITH JUST A COUPLE OF TINY WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE
THE TEST PLAY
THIS ALBUM PLAYS SUPERBLY THOUGH BOTH SIDES
THERE IS NO DISTORTION AT ALL SHOWING THAT THE RECORD HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED WITH A WORN OR OVERWEIGHT STYLUS
THE SOUND IS CRISP AND CLEAN
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISES
NO HEAVY CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE NEAR SILENT
THE RECORD PLAYS WITHOUT BACKGROUND
JUST A COUPLE OF THE TINIEST STATIC TICS HEARD OVER THE TWO SIDES
I GRADE THE AUDIO NEAR MINT

NON -LAMINATED, HEAVY TEXTURED GATEFOLD SLEEVE FROM GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS IN LOVELY CONDITION
THE COLOURS ARE STILL RICH AND VIRBANT AND NOT FADED, SOME LIGHT GREYING ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND A FEW TINY FLEKS OF UNDERCARD VISIBLE
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH A LITTLE RUB TO THE TIP ENDS
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THERE IS ONE SMALL PRESSURE LINE BY THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE
NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGES HAVE RUBBING
THE BOTTOM EDGES HAVE ONLY A FEW FLECKS OF RUB
THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT. PRISTINE TYPEFACE AND NEAR PERFECT COLOUR FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. A SPECK OF RUB TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN TOP CONDITION
