THE LABELS
THE ROYAL BLUE REATION LABELS ARE IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE BLUE TEXTURED SURFACE IS UNWORN AND UNMARKED AND STRETCHED RIGHT INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, THERE ARE A FEW SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING THAT THE LP HAS HAD A FEW VERY CAREFUL PLAYS. THIS OF COURSE IS A 40 YEAR OLD LP AND IS IN SUPERB CONDITION
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IS IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE LP HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE AND LOOKS GREAT. ONLY UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION AM I ABLE TO MAKE OUT A FEW LIGHT AND WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF LIGH HANDLING LINES
PLAYING THE RECORD
ALL MY WORDS WILL MEAN NOTHING UNLESS THE RECORD SOUNDS AS GOOD AS MY DESCRIPTION. THEREFORE I HAVE RECORDED 4 SECTIONS FROM THE RECORD, 2 FROM EACH SIDE TO SHOW IT OFF IN ALL ITS GLORY. EACH SIDE HAS HAD THE OPENING TRACKS AND RUN IN WAX RECORDED AS WELL AS ONE FURTHER TRACK. I HAVE TAKEN ABOUT 90 SECONDS OF EACH EXAMPLE TO PROVE JUST HOW STUNNING THE VINYL IS.THE SECOND TRACKS ALSO HAVE THE LINKING GROOVE TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW OFF THE SILENCE
SO PLEASE CLICK ON THE AUDIO BUTTON AT THE TOP OF THE AUCTION PAGE AND LISTEN FOR YOURSELF
THE LP PERFORMS SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH. NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ALL MEANING THAT THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A WORN OR HEAVY STYLUS USED ON IT. NEITHER IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLING EITHER. THE ONLY SMALL SOUNDS ARE SOME BARELY AUDIBLE LIGHT POPS IN ONE OR TWO PLACES
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS VINYL NEAR MINT MINUS
THE SLEEVEI HAVE SEEN SO MANY SHABBY EXAMPLES OF THIS DELICATE SLEEVE THAT IT IS AN ABSOLUTE JOY TO COME ACROSS ONE THAT IS IN TOP COLLECTIBLE CONDITION.
MADE OF VERY THIN CARD THE SLEEVE IS LAMINATED ON THE FRONT AND NON LAMINATED ON THE BACK. THE FRONT SURFACE IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE LAMINATE IS FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASING, AND GLEAMS LIKE NEW. THERE ARE 3 SMALL THUMB LINES JUST INSIDE THE OPENING EDGE BUT VERY LIGHT AND BARELY NOTICEABLE.. NO BEAND EITHER. THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE UNWORN, AND THE SPINE DOES SHOW SOME LIGHT SHELF WEAR. THE REAR SURFACE HAS THE LARGE MONO TYPEFACE IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER. THERE IS THE PREVIOUS OWNERS NAME WRITTEN NEATLY UNDERNEATH THE WORD MONO. THE COLOUR ON THIS NON LAMINATED SURFACE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE IS NO DAMAGE OR ANY MARKS ETC ON THIS REAR COVER.
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND HAS NO THUMB NICKS ANYWHERE. IT CLEARLY SHOWS HOW LITTLE THE LP HAS BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE.
SLEEVE GRADES EXCELLENT PLUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
