THE RECORDS

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 IS ONE MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINE ON EITHER ON SIDE  OF THE LABEL, 

THE VINYL

THE VINYL IS JUST MINT. THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON IT ANYWHERE, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE, BARELY A WISPY HAIRLINE AT ALL. IT JUST HAS NOT BEEN ON A TURNTABLE. IT GLEAMS LIKE A BRAND NEW ALBUM

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 COMPLETE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LIKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE BIDDING. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY CRACKLE OR CLICKS

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

ONE OR TWO SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF SILENT PASSAGES

NO DUST POPS OR TICS

JUST A PERFECT STEREO REPRODUCTION

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT

THE SLEEVE

A VERY DELICATE NON LAMINATED FOLD OVER GATEFOLD SLEEVE. THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY FLAT AND CLEAN. THE NON LAMINATED SURFACE IS MOST OFTEN FOUND TERRIBLY WORN THROUGH RUBBING AND HAS SEVERE COLOUR LOSS. THIS ONE HOWEVER HAS NONE WHATSOEVER, AS IT HAS RESIDED INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE FROM NEW. AMAZINGLY THERE IS NO RING WEAR, AND THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES.

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND PERFECTLY SQUARE

THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINE AGAINST THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES ON THE RIGHT EDGE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO TRACE OF SHELF WEAR WITH PERFECT SMOOTH COLOUR AND NO BLEMISHES TO THE CORNERS

THE REAR SURFACE IS NEAR PERFECT, WITH JUST A COUPLE OF LIGHT PRESSURE LINES ON THE EDGES

THE SPINE IS OFTEN FOUND SPLIT ON THIS SLEEVE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE RECORD SLIDES INTO THE SLEEVE FROM THE INSIDE EDGE (SPINE EDGE) AND NOT THE OUTSIDE EDGE. JUST LIKE THE BEATLES FOR SALE ALBUM. THEREFORE WHEN THE LP IS PLACED INTO THE SLEEVE, IF IT IS NOT ABSOLUTELY RIGHT INSIDE THE SPINE WILL MAKE CONTACT WITH THE SHARP EDGE OF THE VINYL WHEN THE SLEEVE IS CLOSES. THE FACT THAT THIS RECORD HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED MORE THAN TWICE ALSO MEANS THAT THERE HAS BEEN NO CHANCE TO DAMAGE THE SPINE. THE WHITE SURFACE IS STILL PERFECT, THE TYPEFACE UNRUBBED, AND THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE FREE FROM ANY WEAR

THE INNER GATEFOLD IS IN IMMACULATE CONDITION, NO RUBBING AT ALL TO EITHER SURFACE.

THE PAPER FLAT CAP SITS FIRMLY INSIDE THE SLEEVE AND IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION AS MENTIONED BEFORE

THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER AND HAS JUST ONE LIGHT CORNER CREASE

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE MINT MINUS

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