CONDITION
Discs
All Labels: NEAR MINT
Each is immaculate with just two or three tiny spindle trails to the labels of discs 1 & 2 only.
All discs: NEAR MINT
Pristine factory-fresh playing surfaces which apart from a few faint sleeve removal marks on side 2 & 3 unmarked & 'as new' both in strong daylight AND directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp.
Sound Quality: NEAR MINT
There is little evidence to suggest that this fine sounding set has been played more than a handful of times. The sound quality overall is clean, warm & unworn with my single careful playcheck detected nothing more than a touch of low-level vinyl background between tracks but no further noticeable audible distractions.
Box: VERY GOOD +
A fully intact example with noticeable handling/age wear to the exposed front panel but no further signs of wear inside or out. All corners of both trays are fully intact with no splits or repairs to any. The underside of the tray & unmarked.
The inside of the box is unblemished throughout
The spine lettering is clean with all letters clearly visible
Poster: NEAR MINT
Factory folded & unhung
Inner-sleeves: EXCELLENT +
All are clean & uncreased with an unavoidable light disc impression but no seam splits to any.
