THE LABELS
THE PURE WHITE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. NO WRITING OR MARKS AND THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE
THE BLUE TEXT IS TOTALLY UNRUBBED
THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE RECORD
SUPERB GLOSSY VINYL THAT IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS
UNDER SPOTLIGHTS ITY STILL LOOKS LIKE NEW
JUST A COUPLE OF TINY WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF ULTRA FINE ANGEL HAIRLINE HANDLING LINES
PLAYING THE RECORD
THIS ALBUM PLAYS SUPERBLY THOUGH BOTH SIDES
THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AT ALL SHOWING THAT THE RECORD HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED WITH A WORN OR OVERWEIGHT STYLUS
THE SOUND IS CRISP AND CLEAN
NO HEAVY CRACKLE AND NO LOUND CLICKS OR POPS
THERE IS THE ODD SPECKLE OF BARELY AUDIBLE LIGHT LOW LEVEL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN A FEW RANDOM SILENT PASSAGES
AND A FEW TINY LITTLE STATIC LIKE TICS / POPS DURING THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I GRADE THE AUDIO NEAR MINT
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION FOR A WHITE SLEEVE
THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE FRONT IS STILL PURE WHITE WITH JUST A TINY SLIVER OF AGEING ALONG THE SPINE AND TOP EDHE
A SMALL SPECK OF BROWNING IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER
UNLIKE MOST WHITE NON LAMINATED SLEEVES THIS ONE IS NOT GRUBBY
THE FOUR CORNER TIPS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH JUST A LITTLE RUB TO THE TOP LEFT TIP
NO RING WEAR JUST A SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE TOP AND BOTTOM
THERE ARE THREE PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE
NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGE HAS BROWNED A LITTLE
THE BOTTOM EDGE IS STILL WHITE
THE SPINE IS LIGHTLY SOILED AND HAS A LITTLE RUB AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND SHOWS WHY THE ALBUM HAS ONLY BEEN PLAYED A COUPLE OF TIMES
THE REAR SURFACE IS VERY WHITE LIKE THE FRONT. A SMALL BROWN MARK IN THE OP RIGHT QUARTER
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX+
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
