THE LABELS
THE ORANGY RED POLYDOR LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK OR STAIN ON THEM. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE 3-4SPIDER LINES ROUND THE HOLE.
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS CLEAN AND IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS FLAWLESS. ONLY UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE SOME WISPY HAIRLINES AND A FEW ULTRA FINE SURFACE ANGEL HAIRLINE HANDLING LINES VISIBLE
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 AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.
THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE FIRST THING TO NOTE IS THAT THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT THE FEWPLAYS THE ALBUM HAS RECEIVED WERE COMPLETED ON SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS.
SECONDLY THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS AS CLEAR AS A BELL WITH EVERY NOTE HEARD EXACTLY AS WAS INTENDED
THERE IS A TINY BIT OF EMBEDDED STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN THE LINKING GROOVES OF THE FINAL THREE TRACKS ON SIDE ONE, BUT IT'S VERY MINIMAL
I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD MORE THAN 3-4 TINY DUST POPS . STATIC TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM VERY PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SUPERB DISC'S PLAYTHROUGH AS NEAR MINT IT IS THAT GOOD
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO IT, AND YOU BE THE JUDGE
THE SLEEVE
THIS IS A LAMINATED FRONT , UNLAMINATED REAR MACNEILL PRESS SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY FLAT .THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR
THERE ARE FOUR SMALL LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE, THREE ALONG THE TOP EDGE OR WHICH TWO ARE MINUSCULE AND BY THE LEFT CORNER, WHILST THE THIRD IS NEAR THE RIGHT CORNER AND LONGER, AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE ALL SHARP AND SQUARE
THERE IS NO RING WEAR, JUST A SHADDOW OF RECORD SHAPE WHEN THE SLEEVE IS ANGLED INTO THE LIGHT
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH PERFECTLY LAMINATED. THE COLOUR UNDERNEATH FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, AND EVEN THE CORNER TIPS ARE UNRUBBED
THE WAFER THIN TAPERED SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED WITH JUST A COUPLE OF LIGHT FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSIONS. THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS ALSO STILL RAZOR SHARP.
THE UNLAMINATED REAR SURFACE IS STILL FULLY COLOURED WITH ONLY THE BAREST SHADOW OF GREYING UNDER THE TOP, AND ABOVE THE BOTTOM EDGES, AND THERE IS A LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND APART FROM A LITTLE BROWNING THOROUGH AGE IS IN UNSPLIT CONDITION,
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
