THE LABELS
THE WHITE LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THEY ARE RICH AND VIBRANT IN COLOUR AND THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. BLACK TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. FINALLY THERE ARE JUST 2-3 TINY SPIDER LINES NEXT TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION AND HAS NOT LOST ANY OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. A BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY CLEAN DISC . IN DAYLIGHT THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE ON THIS SPARKLING VINYL,IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A COUPLE OF WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES. AND ONE ANGEL HAIR HANDLING LINE ON EACH SIDE
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTABLE 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 SET FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, IN THE FIRM BELIEF THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE 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
INCREDIBLE!!! THAT'S THE ONLY WAY TO DESCRIBE THE REPRODUCTION. SO MANY SILENT PASSAGES THAT PERFORM TO THE HIGHEST GRADE POSSIBLE
NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE
NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY A LITTLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN SOME OF THE LINKING GROOVES
I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY STATIC TICS OR DUST POPS DURING THE ENTIRE PLAY-THROUGH DURING THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT MINUS
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
SEMI LAMINATED, LIGHTLY TEXTURED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE OF THIS SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE IMAGES ARE IN GLEAMING CONDITION. MOST SLEEVES OF THIS TYPE SUFFER VERY BADLY FROM CREASING ,BUT THIS COPY HAS NO HEAVY LINES WHATSOEVER. THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH JUST A SPECK OF RUB TO THE TIPS , AND NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE TWO MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE. ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE AND ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER.
THE TOP EDGE IS FULLY COLOURED ALL THE WAY FROM CORNER TO CORNER, BOTH CORNER TIPS HAVE REMAINED RUB FREE. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS SIMILAR WITH A TINY BIT OF RUB TO THE RIGHT TIP END
THE SPINE IS IN GREAT SHAPE . TOTALLY FLAT AND PRISTINE TYPE FACE. NO RUBBING TO THE TIP ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION
THE CARD PICTURE / LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT, NO SPLITS TO THE SEAM AND NO DAMAGE .
THIS IS A GREAT SLEEVE AND GRADES MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
