CONDITION

Box Lid: GOOD

Box tray: VERY GOOD +

Incredibly difficult to find intact, this example has survived in respectable shape.
As you can see the box lid is fairly clean overall but displays some discolouration and storagwear marking.
Three corners have split and there is a 4cm tear to the lower right edge but no other major signs of damage.

The marriage certificate on the underside of the lid is unblemished and in MINT condition.

The lower tray is fully intact with no damage or splits to the corners, just some unavoidable storagewear rubbing to the base.

All Inserts: EXCELLENT

All are complete and fully intact with just light handling wear but no tears, writing or any other major faults.

Disc

The SAPCOR 11 LP on the dark green Apple label, housed within an outer laminated gatefold cover.

Matrix numbers: SAPCOR 11A-1 & SAPCOR 11B-1
Stamper numbers: 1/P & 1/P
Disc weight: 155g

Labels: NEAR MINT

Both are 'as new' with just one or two tiny spindle trails around each centre-hole.

Visual: NEAR MINT

Both surfaces are 'as new' & unmarked in strong daylight with just a few faint inner-sleeve storage marks directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp.

Audio: NEAR MINT

This copy has received just one or possible two careful plays and is without any audible faults or wear throughout.

Cover: VERY GOOD +

This strong and clean example has some toning to the laminated areas but is otherwise bright & glossy.
The delicate front leaf has two small tears towards the lower right corner but no other wear or creasing.

The rear panel is again clean & glossy but with a small tear to the upper right corner and a bump to the lower left.
There is a small area of laminate lift toward the lower right near the spine but is it is fully worded and unsplit.
The inside of the gatefold is perfectly clean & white with no marks or writing anywhere.

Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT

Crisp & white with just a few light handling wrinkles but no writing, splits or tears.


  • Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp based on UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.

  • I carefully play every record I sell on a $5,000 Rega P9 turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.

  • All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.

  • All records are professionally & securely in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover.

  • Please take a look at my About Me page for more details.
