THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE RED AND WHITE LABELS ARE IN TOP CONDITION. THE WHITE AREA IS VERY WHITE . THE RED SECTION IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND UNRUBBED. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND CLEAR. THERE ARE 5-6 SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE HOLE INDICATING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN PLAYED
THE VINYL
BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY ALBUM HAVING RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO MARKS ON THE SURFACE IN DAYLIGHT AND ONLY WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE SOME WISPY HAIRLINES AND ULTRA FINE SURFACE HANDLING LINES VISIBLE
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 DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I STRONGLY 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 FIRST THING TO POINT OUT IS THAT THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND SHOWING THAT WHAT PLAY THE LP HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER
THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE, AND NO LOUD CLICKS AT ALL
THERE IS SOME VERY LIGHT OCCASIONAL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND HEARD ON OCCASION AND IN PARTICULAR JUST AT THE START OF SIDE ONE. THERE IS ALSO THE ODD LITTLE TIC AND DUST POP THROUGH THE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL EXCELLENT PLUS
TAKE A LISTEN FOR YOURSELF AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS RETAINED VIRTUALLY ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOURS.
NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP HAS SOME LIGHT WEAR
THERE ARE TWO SMALL LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE SPINE
THE TOP EDGE HAS ONE OR TWO PIN PRICKS OR WHITE ALONG THE OTHERWISE BROWN SURFACE AND A LITTLE RUB TO THE RIGHT TIP. THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS THAT WEAR THE TO RIGHT CORNER TIP AND NOTHING ELSE
THE SPINE FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. THE COLOUR HAS FADED OVER TIME AND THERE IS A LITTLE RUB AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP. IN FACT BOTH OPENING EDGES ARE RAZOR SHARP, AND DON'T EVEN HAVE ANY THUMB NAIL NICKS ALONG THEM.
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME CONDITION AS THE FRONT WITH A COUPLE OF INDENT SCRATCH LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO NEAR MINT INNER PANELS. THE TOP LEFT CORNER HAS A LIGHT CREASE LINE
THE ORIGINAL RED AND WHITE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT AND UNSPLIT, AND UNCREASED, AND HAS THE CORRECT 10-69 DATE PRINTED IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER
THE SLEEVE EASILY GRADES EXCELLENT PLUS
