CONDITION
Disc
Labels: NEAR MINT
An immaculate & vibrant pair with literally just one or two faint spindle marks around each centre hole.
Visual: EXCELLENT +
Both playing surfaces of this well-looked after copy are extremely clean & bright with no scuffs or scratches visible strong daylight. Careful examination in strong daylight reveals just two small pin-head sized marks on side 1 and some harmless wispy paper hairlines but no other signficant or major blemishes. Its a nice heavy disc which lies 100% flat on the turntable with no signs of dishing or warping.
Play: EXCELLENT +
This great super copy has been barely played and there is no evidence of any groove/play wear or background noise on or between any track. The only audible blemish my playcheck revealed were a few faint ticks during the instrumental break of 'Wild Horses' due to the abovementioned mark. Apart from that, there is nothing else to fault on this extemely respectable copy.
Cover
EXCELLENT +
Apleasure to find this fragile and easily damage cover in such fine condition. The front panel is clean, flat & free from any scratches or wear and no damage to the belt opening flaps. All corners are sharp and square and the top-opening edges itself is sharp & unworn from both sides. There are a few unavoidable tiny indentations on the rear panel where it was stored against the zips of other copies, but no signs of any other wear. Both seams and the fully worded spine spine are fully intact with no splits or stresses. Tough to find better.
Inner-sleeve:
VERY GOOD +
Some light age toning and storage wrinkling but no writing, tears or splits.
Insert:
NEAR MINT
