    THE RECORDS

     

    THE LABELS

    THE PICTURE VERTIGO LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. A SOLID BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

    THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE IS JUST ONE SMALL SPIDER LINE BY THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE

     

    THE VINYL

    THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER AN LED MAGNIFYING HALO THERE ARE NO WISPY HAIRLINES AT ALL. THE RECORD LOOKS PERFECT

    THE TEST PLAY

    THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.

    THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT WHAT LITTLE PLAY THE RECORD HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A PERFECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS.

    THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE

    NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY A FEW RANDOM SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN ONE OR TWO SILENT PASSAGES

    I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY  DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH, JUST A COUPLE OF TINY STATIC TICS

    I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT MINUS

    PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

     

     

    THE SLEEVE

     

    NON LAMINATED GLOSSY SINGLE SLEEVE

    THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES.

    THERE ARE THREE MINUSCULE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. TWO ALONG THE TOP AND ONE  ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

    THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE

    THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH  PRISTINE WITH ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER. NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE AND UNBLEMISHED CORNER TIPS

    THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THE ENDS REMAIN PERFECT

    THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP.

    THE REAR SURFACE IS AS CLEAN AS THE FRONT , NO COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER, AND LIKE THE FRONT THERE ARE NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE.THREE SMALL PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE AND ONE ON THE TOP EDGE

    THE HEAVY PAPER PICTURE INNER SLEEVE IS USUALLY FOUND SPLIT, BUT THIS COPY IS MINT. NO SPLITS , CREASES OR WRINKLES AND NO MARKS OR STAINS ON THE SURFACE

    I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS  SLEEVE MINT MINUS
