THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE PICTURE LABEL IS JUST MAGNIFICENT. DEEP RICH BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY BLEMISHES. NO MARKS OR STAINS AND NO SIGNS OF HANDLING WHATSOEVER. THE WHITE LABEL WITH THE BLUE TEXT IS EQUALLY IMPRESSIVE

NO RUBBING TO THE TYPEFACE OR LOGO'S

THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO MORE THAT 1-2 MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE WHATSOEVER 

THE VINYL

THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS JUST NOTHING TO SEE. APART FROM A FEWF WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL SURFACE HAIRLINES 

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.

I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.

NOR IS THERE ANY HEAVY OR LOUD BACKGROUND CRACKLE . 

NO VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER, AND NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS

NO STATIC EITHER OTHER THAN A SPLIT SECOND IN ONE OR TWO LINKING GROOVES

I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS ALBUM MINT  !!!!!!!!!

BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

GOLD LEAF EMBOSSED, TEXTURED E.J DAY AND CO GATEFOLD SLEEVE WITH  STAPLED BOOKLET

THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY VERY CLEAN AND IMPORTANTLY  HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR IS THERE AND THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF ANY RUBBING OR SHELF WEAR, OTHER THAN A TINY SPECK TO THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER TIP, AND A LITTLE GREYING AROUND THE EDGES

THE BERGUNDY COLOUR IS SUPERB AND THE GOLD FLAKE IS IMMACULATE

THERE ARE THREE TINY PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE, NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEXT TO THE OPENING EDGE

THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE

THE TOP EDGES HAVE  AFEW TINY WHITE PIN PRICKS OF RUB ON THE SURFACES AND A TINY PATCH OF LIGHT RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER. THE BOTTOM EDGES HAVE A LITTLE WEAR TO THE CORNERS

THE SPINE IS VERY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. THE GOLD LEAF IS IMMACULATE ALL THE WAY ALONG THE SURFACE, AND THE ONLY LITTLE BIT OF RUB OCCURS AT THE BOTTOM TIP

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT. 

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PRISTINE INNER PANELS AND A PERFECTLY STAPLED BOOK. THE BOOK IS IN SUPERB CONDITION AND ONLY HAS THE ORIGINAL OWNERS NAME NEATLY PENNED ON THE FIRST PAGE IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER

THE  INNER SLEEVE 1S 100% UNSPLIT AND CREASE FREE. A LITTLE NATURAL EDGE AGE

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS  SLEEVE  NEAR MINT!! 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
