CONDITION
Disc
Labels: NEAR MINT
A vivid & vibrant set with just a single spindle trail to the side 1 centre hole only. All others are unmarked & 'as new'.
Visual: EXCELLENT +
All playing surfaces of this fine condition set are perfectly clean & glossy with the only visual blemish in strong daylight being a 1.5cm light surface mark (not a scratch) on side 4. Close examination directly beneath my halogen desk lamp reveals little more than some barely visible wispy paper hairlines but no further marks or blemishes to any surface.
Play: EXCELLENT +
Both of these discs have clearly been barely played and the sound is perfectly clean & clear throughout with no groove/play wear or any background noise on any track. During my careful play check, I was not distracted by any clicks, pops or other significant audible faults or distractions.
Cover
EXCELLENT
A clean strong & glossy example with just some light storagewear but no significant or major faults. Both panels are bright & glossy with only a faint, unavoidable light disc impression, but no heavy creasing or wear. Apart from a tiny bruise to the upper left corner all are in fine shape and both opening edges are free from any tears or feathering. The inside of the gatefold is undamaged as are all seams and the fully laminated and fully worded spine.
Inner-sleeves
GOOD/VERY GOOD
One is clean & unmarked whilst the other has stains to the seams where they were once taped but is otherwise intact.
- Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
- I carefully play every record I sell on an EMT 950 transcription turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.
- All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
- All records are professionally & securely in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover.
