MULTIPLE BUYS AND 1ST CLASS POSTAGE ETC: If you purchase more than one item or would prefer 1st Class postage and additional tracking please DO NOT PAY, message me and wait for an invoice. At which time I can charge the appropriate postage, thereby discounting the postage. The packaging I use can hold up to 3 albums, therefore greatly reducing postage costs where applicable.
NB All of the photos are the actual items and not stock photos.
Because of the plastic covering as below, the gatefold cover is in excellent condition, no signs of wear/storage and no ring wear.
Around this time, I stored a lot of albums in thin plastic sleeves and sellotaped them to the open edge of the cover. Therefore, the cover remains in excellent condition, although signs of the sellotape fixings can be seen inside the cover. Obviously, no thought to the effect on the value 50 years later!
Excellent vinyl, with no obvious scratches/blemishes visible. To my eyes the vinyl is excellent.
Appears to be the original plain paper inner sleeves in good condition, showing no blemishes/staining etc.
Part of quality collection of Mobile Fidelity releases, Half-Speed Masters, Direct Cut Masters and over 120 Japanese Pressings included in a total of 1000 albums.
I have been an audiophile for over 50 years and all vinyl etc lovingly cared for, and since the original purchase perfectly stored on appropriate shelving and in a smoke free environment. As far back as the late 60’s a friend built me a beautiful solid wood cabinet to store the vinyl, which I used for over 40 years. Later using additional Habitat “storage cubes” which were perfect for albums at 13” x 13”
My turntable is not currently wired up (no suitable equipment) has not been used for over 12 years, therefore other that the look of the vinyl I am unable to comment on the presence of pops/crackles etc. I am however cleaning all sold albums with custom vinyl cleaning products to ensure the best condition possible.
In 1987 I started on a wonderful journey, and still going on, collecting Grateful Dead live music and with that commitment I hardly played any vinyl from that time.
