THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE MULTI-COLOURED LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION,
THE COLOUR IS UNRUBBED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY CLEAR AND LEGIBLE,
AND THERE IS ONE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE TO DEMONSTRATE HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN PLAYED
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS IN GLEAMING CONDITION, AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS TO BE TOTALLY FLAWLESS,
AND EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE IS STILL NOTHING TO BE SEEN
A PRISTINE RECORD
THE TEST PLAY
SUPERB AUDIO THOUGHOUT THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
THE LP PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
I DIDN'T HEAR ANY STATIC TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS AUDIO MINT
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND YOU BE THE JUDGE THOUGH
THE SLEEVE
INCREDIBLE EMBOSSED SINGLE SLEEVE
AN ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT EXAMPLE OF THIS OFTEN ABUSED SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNMARKED. THE WHITE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND STILL PERFECTLY WHITE. THE SLEEVE HAS BEEN PROTECTED FROM NEW INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE AND HAS THEREFORE BEEN PERFECTLY PRESERVED UNLIKE MOST COPIES WHICH ARE GRUBBY
THE ORIGINAL SHOP STICKER STILL SITS IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASE LINES , BENDS OR DINGS
THERE ARE TWO MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINES ON THE SPINE. NONE ON THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE IMMACULATE WITH THE DELICATE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, PERFECT ALL THE WAY ACROSS AND UNBLEMISHED SHARP SQUARE CORNERS
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT WITH, AND ALL OF THE COLOUR IS THERE FROM TOP TO BOTTOM AND EVEN THE TIPS ARE UNRUBBED.
THE OPENING EDGE IS JUST RAZOR SHARP, AND LOOKS AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT WAS PUT TOGETHER
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS STUNNING AS THE FRONT, NO LINES NEAR ANY OF THE EDGES, AND NO LOSS OF COLOUR. VERY MILD HANDLING TO THE WHITE EDGES
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE WHATSOEVER
THE PICTURE INNER IN ALSO IN MINT CONDITION. NO SPLITS, CREASES, WRINKLES MARKS OR STAINS
A REALLY INCREDIBLE EXAMPLE OF THIS SLEEVE AND I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE IT MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
