CONDITION –
The vinyl is in Good condition.
The labels are in Excellent condition.
The sleeve is in Mint condition and is new - not the original sleeve but looks great.
(Record Collector gradings).
The all important labels are in superb condition. There is no writing or blemishes, the text is striking and clearly legible with NO fading, they are in excellent condition. The spindle is clean and shows evidence of wear and a few signs of visible playing.
Many copies of this 45 when released were taken to parties and played endlessly, often scratched until they were unplayable. This copy however has been played and looked after.
The vinyl is in good condition with some marks.
The most outstanding aspect of this copy is the clean nature of the labels and the record plays with relatively little surface noise or static pops. This 45 single has clearly been loved and treasured by a keen collector. The quality of the sound makes the playing of the disc a pleasure with few allowances having to be made for its 50+ year vintage, which is astounding in itself.
The sleeve is a new EMI Parlophone die-cut sleeve.
This single is becoming increasingly rare.
Quite brilliant!
Low start to encourage interest (as if that was needed!).
Any questions please ask.
Thanks for looking.
