THE LABELS

THE JET BLACK BUDDAH  LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, THE TYPEFACE IS UNWORN AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. EVEN UNDER VERY CLOSE SCRUTINY I CANNOT SEE ANY MORE THAN ONE MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINE AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE, AND THIS MEANS THAT THE LP HAS BEEN VERY VERY CAREFULLY HANDLED AND BARELY BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE .

THE VINYL

BOTH DISCS HAVE RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT BOTH LOOK ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAT A COUPLE OF THE WISPIEST SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL LINES.

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 LP AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I FIRMLY 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

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH MAGNIFICENTLY. THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS FIRST PRESS ALL THE WAY, AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ALL.

THIS FIRST PRESS AUDIO REPRODUCTION IS MAGNIFICENT AND THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES WHATSOEVER, JUST THE PURE CLEAN AND CRISP SOUND GENERATED FROM THIS VINYL

FAULTLESS AUDIO AND JUST THE BAREST TRACE OF STATIC HEARD IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES . NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE ANYWHERE

I DIDN'T HEAR ANY DUST POPS OR STATIC TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

THIS HAS TO GRADE MINT!!!!!

PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, LISTEN TO THE RECORDINGS FOR YOURSELF AND YOU BE THE JUDGE!!

THE SLEEVE

UNLAMINATED TEXTURED UK MACNEILL GATEFOLD SLEEVE

ABSOLUTELY MINT CONDTIION SLEEVE HAVING SPENT ALL OF IT'S LIFE INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN, AND IS VERY VERY IMPRESSIVE. ALL OF THE DELICATE COLOURS HAVE BEEN RETAINED. ABSOLUTELY NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE WHATSOEVER. THE OFF WHITE SURFACE IS ALWAYS SOILED BUT NOT ON THIS COPY. IT IS JUST PERFECT. THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS AT ALL

NO RING WEAR AND NO RECORD SHAPE, AND ALL FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE. IT IS JUST LIKE LOOKING  A BRAND NEW SLEEVE.

THE TEXTURED SURFACE IS ALSO PERFECT

THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES ANYWHERE, AND ZERO!! TINY LINES NEAR THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE JUST MINT. AGAIN BECAUSE OF THE OUTER SLEEVE THIS HAS HAD NO OPPORTUNITY TO GET SHELFWORN. YOU WILL NEVER FINE A BETTER SLEEVE THAN THIS

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. THE VULNERABLE COLOURS ARE ALL THERE WITH JUST TWI MINUSCULE WHITE SCUFFS ON THE TOP EDGE. THIS WAS AFTER ALL THE ONLY AREA THAT WAS LEFT EXPOSED.. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE.

BIT OF RUB TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP ANOTHER CLEAR SIGN THAT THE VINYL HAS REMAINED INSIDE THE SLEEVE FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN MINT CONDITION . AGAIN JUST PERFECT IN EVERY WAY

THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION. TOTALLY UNSPLIT AND STILL MINT. HAS THE CORRECT DATE PRINTED IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER 1271. JUST A SHADOW OF GLUE AGEING TO THE TOP EDGE

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT!!!!

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
