CONDITION

Disc

Labels: EXCELLENT PLUS

Visual: NEAR MINT

Carefully played just a few times on top quality equipment only, both surfaces appear in MINT condition when viewed in strong daylight.
Close & careful inspection directly beneath a powerful halogen desk lamp reveals just a few barely visible wispy inner-sleeve removal hairlines.
However, there are absolutely no scuffs, marks or any scratches anywhere on either side of this fine disc.
Quality sharp-edged vinyl which lies 100% flat both sides on the turntable with no signs of dishing or warping.

Audio: NEAR MINT

This is an 100% perfect sounding 'as new' example.
All tracks play perfectly with absolutely no traces of crackle, groovewear or any other audible wear whatsoever.
Both run-ins and all bands play totally silently without any clicks or other interference.

(N.B: I never grade anything played as 'Mint')

Cover: EXCELLENT PLUS

Extremely strong & clean retaining a high-gloss, unscratched front laminate which bears just two light creases to the upper-right corner area.
However, there are no 'thumbnail' creases near the opening edges & all corners are in unbumped & unworn condition.
The opening edges display just a hint of light wear but are otherwise clean without any tears or feathering.
The rear panel is bright, clean and white with no discolouration, handling marks, writing or any other wear.
The spine is in perfect, undamaged condition & both seams are totally intact with no stress or splits.
