THE RECORD
<?xml:namespace prefix = "o" ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
THE LABELS
THE MULTICOLOURED SIDE OF THE LABEL IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION. DEEP RICH AND UNRUBBED COLOURS. THE WHITE SIDE HAS A LITTLE AGE FOXING TO THE SURFACE.
I CANNOT EVEN SEE ANY SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE APART FROM ONE MICROSCOPIC LINE ON ONE SIDE ONLY.
THE VINYL
REALLY CLEAN ORIGINAL HEAVYWEIGHT DISC WHICH HAS ONLY LOST A FRACTION OF THE ORIGINAL SHEEN . IN DAYLIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS TO BE FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE ONLY A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE WHOLE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.
THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THIS VINYL PLAYS ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, WITH A STUNNING CRYSTAL CLEAR AUDIO THAT IS LOUD AND POWERFUL YET CLASSICALLY STEREO
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ALL, AND THIS MEANS NO GROOVE WEAR.
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE, AND NO MORE THAN THE ODD SPLIT SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A FEW OF THE SILENT PASSAGES
I HEARD NO MORE THAN ONE DUST POP THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS
PLEASE JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS THOUGH
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED SHOREWOOD SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND DOES NOT HAVE ANY HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. NO BENDS OR FOLDS EITHER. THE COLOURS ARE ALL MAGNIFICENT AND TOTALLY UNRUBBED, AND ALSO VERY RICH AND BRIGHT.
THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINE, ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ONE THUMB LINE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP EDGE HAS 99% OF THE LIGHT BLUE SURFACE, WITH A COUPLE OF TINY PIN PRICKS OF WHITE VISIBLE AND LITTLE RUB TO THE RIGHT TIP END. THE BOTTOM EDGE , HAS A FRACTION MORE ALONG THE SURFACE.
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED WITH ONE VERY LIGHT FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION IN THE MIDDLE. THE BLUE COLOUR IS ONLY RUBBED A LITTLE AT THE TIP ENDS AND THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN TOP UNMOLESTED CONDITION. NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE, JUST ONE SMALL LINE ON THE SPINE
THE PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE IS UNSPLIT, AND UNCREASED
THE SLEEVE EASILY GRADES NEAR MINT!!!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
