Description
This is your chance to own an original 1971 pressing of Shelagh McDonald's STARGAZER vinyl LP on the B&C Records label, CAS 1043.
Condition is Used.
This record has been kept in a cool dry cupboard and un-played for well over 40 years having been purchased by me in the 1970s and then carried off to university and subsequent houses in a record box.
I have not played it, to check track quality, as I no longer have a respectable turntable fearing that one of today's modern USB record decks would act more like a plastic milling machine. My comments below are therefore based on a close visual inspection only. I have not cleaned the disc.
Disc:
Side 1:
The label is in near mint condition with crisp printing and only slight, minimal, rubbing to the central spindle hole with no spindle rub marks.
The disc surface is in excellent visual condition with no visible scratches. There is some slight surface dust with a few partial fingerprints visible. The Matrix / Runout is stamped in three areas with 1 (sideways), CAS 1043 A-1U and 11 (sideways).
Side 2:
The label is in near mint condition with crisp printing and only slight, minimal, rubbing to the central spindle hole with no spindle rub marks.
The disc surface is in excellent visual condition with no visible scratches. There is some slight surface dust with a few partial fingerprints visible. The Matrix / Runout is stamped in three areas with V (sideways), CAS 1043 B-2U and 1 (sideways)
The photographs hopefully give some idea of the condition of the vinyl disc.
Sleeve:
The original sleeve is in good overall condition with some creasing to one corner but no tears or discolouration.
Cover:
The cover is in good overall condition. The cardboard is smooth and crisp with slight rubbing and wear to the spine, bottom edges and corners. There is some light impression marking from the vinyl disc and light finger creasing from removing the record sleeve from the record box. The glue seam in the front top left corner has become delaminated for approximately 15cm and some residual glue and damage to printing from pricing labels in the front top left corner, see photograph.
Please inspect the photographs carefully.
For shipping I will place the record in plastic wrapping and pack in double stiff corrugated packaging.
Dispatched with Royal Mail Signed For® 2nd Class.
