All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if successful.
This record is in excellent condition. It has no obvious spindle marks visible on the labels but they are visible under very bright light. There are no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere, the centres are not loose and overall the labels are in great shape.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are very clean with nothing remotely serious on either side and little visible in normal light. There are a couple of very light lines visible in normal light when tilted, and there are extremely minor wispy lines visible under very bright white light, but nothing remotely serious or sinister. The record has no nasty scuffs or blemishes and has a lovely vivid shine.
I play tested the record and it plays very well. It lays flat, there is next to no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is excellent. Its crisp, defined and clear with only a trace of surface noise audible in the run in and occasionally between tracks. There is very little audible during the actual audio with only an incredibly minor amount very occasionally audible. There are no serious issues such as skips, sticks or annoying clicks and I didn't hear a 'pop' the whole way through. It was a very enjoyable play test and the audio produced was of good quality and did this classic album justice.
The sleeve is in very good+ condition. It has some wear to the edges and corners(pics), and the writing along the spine is no longer clearly legible. Despite this edge wear they are all strong with no splits or really weak areas where one may develop, although the 1" patch on the spine doesn't look great. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere but there is some faint ring marks just visible on both sides when tilted. There is also a few short creases around the edges and a few minor indentations, but overall the sleeve is in good shape with just the edge wear as its real issue. I have tried to capture the sleeves condition as best I can in the pictures provided so please study these to gain as much information as possible.
It includes its double sides lyric insert which is in excellent condition with no tears, pen marks or serious issues but some very light creasing.
It includes a replacement white inner which is in excellent condition as the original has gone missing.
The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to ensure swift delivery.
I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my Ebay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
All offers are considered and are more than welcome.
Many thanks for looking.
