THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE DARK BLUE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS. THE COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE JUST 2 SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS OR LINES,AND IN DAYLIGHT THE DISC LOOKS FLAWLESS, AND ONLY WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION AM I ABLE TO MAKE OUT A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES
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 ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I NOW DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING ANY BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THIS VINYL PLAYS EVERY BIT AS SUPERBLY AS IT LOOKS. FROM THE SECOND THE STYLUS IS LOWERED ONTO THE RUN IN GROOVE THE CLARITY OF REPRODUCTION COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. THIS IS A FIRST PRESS SOUND IN EVERY WAY.
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE, CLICKS OR POPS ANYWHERE. EVERY LINKING GROOVE IS SILENT WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE AND I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY VINYL NOISE JUST A COUPLE OF SPLIT SECONDS OF VERY LIGHT AND BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES
I CANNOT FAULT THIS VINYL IN ANYWAY AND IT IS AS GOOD NOW AS THE DAY IT WAS PRESSED. ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS
TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM AND BE THE JUDGE
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE, AND NON LAMINATED REAR SURFACE FROM THE UPTON PRINTING GROUP
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND PERFECTLY CLEAN.THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR.
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS, AND ONLY 5 REALLY SMALL LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE.
THERE ARE NO OTHER LINES ANYWHERE, NO THUMB LINES, NO RING WEAR AND NOT EVEN ANY RECORD SHAPE
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING LOOKING SLEEVE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR,
THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS LEGIBLE, AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS INTACT AND PRISTINE EVEN DOWN TO THE TAPERED ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY RAZOR SHARP AND CLEARLY SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM IS IN THE INCREDIBLE STATE THAT IT IS, BECAUSE IT JUST HASN'T BEEN REMOVED FROM THE SLEEVE MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES
THE REAR SURFACE IS STILL EXCEPTIONALLY WHITE WITH JUST THE VERY BAREST TOUCH OF HANDLING TO THE VERY PERIMETER EDGES. THE BLACK TEXT AND THE PICTURE ARE BOTH UNRUBBED
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE. THE SLEEVE IS JUST SUPERB!!
THE ORIGINAL BLUE AND WHITE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN EXCEPTIONAL UNSPLIT CONDITION WITH BARELY A CREASE LINE ON IT. THIS AGAIN SHOWS JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN HANDLED
HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE MINT MINUS
I AM CERTAIN THERE WILL NEVER BE ANY NEED TO UPGRADE FROM THIS VAULT CONDITION COPY
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
GARRY
