THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE EPIC LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE RICH AND VIBRANT BASE COLOURS FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, AND ALL OF THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS BOTH UNRUBBED AND CLEAR AND LEGIBLE. EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION I CANNOT SEE ANY MORE THAN TWO MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE.

THE VINYL

THIS COPY IS IN SUPERB CONDITION. STILL RETAINS ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE, AND GLEAMS LIKE NEW.IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING VISIBLE APART FROM A FEW VERY 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 LP FROM START TO FINISH 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

THIS ALBUM HAS AN INCREDIBLE STEREO SOUNDTRACK, AND I HAD FORGOTTEN JUST HOW MAGNIFICENT A FIRST ISSUE VINYL IS. YOU HAVE TO TAKE A LISTEN TO THIS SUPERB DISC. THE REPRODUCTION IS TRULY PRICELESS

THE VINYL PLAYS WITH A VERY LOUD AND CLEAR REPRODUCTION. NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AND NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER

THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER

A SMALL SPECK OF STATIC AT THE START OF EACH SIDE AND IN A COUPLE OF LINKING GROOVES, AND I HEARD NO MORE THAN ONE DUST POP THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT!!!!

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS 

 

 

THE SLEEVE

 

 

SEMI LAMINATED SHOREWOOD GATEFOLD SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE  IS FLAT AND CLEAN. NO MARKS OR STAINS AND NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. ALL OF THE COLOUR IS THERE AND THERE HAS BEEN NO SHELF WEAR

THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY ZERO LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEXT TO THE OPENING EDGE, JUST THREE LIGHT LINES AGAINST THE OPENING EDGE ITSELF

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE VIRTUALLY MINT WITH THE ONLY SPECK OF WHITE SHOWING APPEARS ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT TIP END. EVERYWHERE ELSE THE COLOUR IS INTACT

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. A COUPLE OF MICROSCOPIC SCUFFS ON THE BOTTOM LEADING EDGE ON THE BOTTOM TIP, BUT THAT'S ALL. THE COLOUR OTHERWISE IS ALL THERE, AND THE TYPEFACE PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

THE OPENING EDGE IS  RAZOR SHARP AND IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THE LP HAS NOT BEEN OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE , NOT EVEN ANY THUMB NAIL NICKS ALONG THE EDGES

THE REAR SURFACE,AGAIN HAS RETAINED THE ORIGINAL COLOURS AND IS EVERY BIT AS BRILLIANT AS THE FRONT. AGAIN NO SMALL LINES ON ANY OF THE SEALED AGES, JUST THOSE THREE LIGHT ONES UP AGAINST THE OPENING EDGE.

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PRISTINE INNER PANELS

THE ORIGINAL PICTURE / LYRIC INNER  INNER SLEEVE IS IN EXCEPTIONAL  MINT UNSPLIT  AND UNCREASED CONDITION.

I AM PERFECTLY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT !!!

 

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

GARRY
