The Record
THE LABELS
A MAGNIFICENT PAIR OF THE CLASSIC SAILING BOAT LABELS. THE LABELS ARE TOTALLY MINT AND HAVE NO MARKS OR STAINS ON IT ON EITHER SIDE. THE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT, AND FULLY EXTEND INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, WHICH EVEN UNDER CLOSE SCRUTINY DISPLAYS JUST A COUPLE OF TINY SPIDER LINES
The Vinyl
VISUALLY AS NEW VINYL, HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND LOOKS SUPERB. THERE ARE NO HANDLING MARKS, OR ANY SURFACE SCRATCHES ANYWHERE TO BE SEEN, AND THIS IS A FANTASTIC LOOKING ALBUM IN EVERY WAY
EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING MORE THAN A FEW WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES VISIBLE
Playing the Record
THE RECORD PLAYS SUPERBLY THROUGH BOTH SIDES
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS LOUD AND CLEAR
ABSOLUTELY NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER
NO BACKGROUND NOISE AND NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS
I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY MORE THAN THE ODD TINY SPECK OF STATIC AT ALL IN A FEW LINKING GROOVES AND A LITTLE IN THE LAST TWO TRACKS ON SIDE TWO
I HEARD JUST A FEW TINY DUST POPS DURING THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS PRIZED COLLECTIBLE NEAR MINT
BUT IT'S YOUR OPINION THAT COUNTS SO PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND GRADE IT FOR YOURSELF
The Sleeve
NON-LAMINATED GLOSSY SINGLE SLEEVE
PRINTER CREDITS: NONE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS A SQUARE OF STICKER RESIDUE IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT IT COULD BE LOSS OF THE COLOUR WHERE THE STICKER WAS REMOVED. THE UNDERCARD IS NOT VISIBLE LIKE IT WOULD BE IF THE STICKER PULLED THE TOP SURFACE
THERE IS A CREASE LINE ACROSS THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE FIVE PRESSURE LINES ON THE SPINE
THREE ON THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGE IS FULLY COLOURED WITH JUST A LITTLE RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS LIGHT SHELF RUB
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND FREE FROM SQUASHING. THE YPEFACE IS PERFECT
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP WITH A TINY SPECK OF BURRING IN THE MIDDLE
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERYBIT AS CLEAN AS THE FRONT
THE CARD PICTURE LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED, UNSPLIT AND IN PERFECT CONDITION
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE VG+
