THE LABELS
THE PINK SCROLL LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. NO WRITING OR MARKS AND THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE
THE BLACK TYPEFACE REMAINS UNRUBBED AND IN PRISTINE CONDITION
THERE ARE JUST 1-2 SMALL SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE RECORD
SUPERB GLOSSY VINYL THAT IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS
UNDER SPOTLIGHTS I CAN SEE SOME SURFACE ONLY WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRWAL HAIRLINES
A VERY CLEAN HEAVYWEIGHT RECORD
PLAYING THE RECORD
THIS ALBUM PLAYS SUPERBLY THOUGH BOTH SIDES
THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AT ALL SHOWING THAT THE RECORD HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED WITH A WORN OR OVERWEIGHT STYLUS
THE SOUND IS CRISP AND CLEAN
NO HEAVY CRACKLE AND NO LOUND CLICKS OR POPS
CLEAN AND CLEAR THROUGH BOTH SIDES, WITH NO MORE THAN A SPLIT SECOND OR TWO OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A LINKING GROOVE OR TWO
NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF RANDOM DUST POPS
I GRADE THE AUDIO NEAR MINT
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED TEXTURED GATEFOLD SLEEVE BY E.J.DAY AND CO
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND RUB FREE
THE COLOURS ARE STILL RICH AND VIRBANT AND NOT FADED
A LITTLE NATURAL HANDLING TO THE EDGES
THE FOUR CORNER ARE REASONABLY SQUARE WITH A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE TIPS
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE TWO TINY PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE
NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ONLY HAVE A FEW FLECKS OF WHITE UNDERCARD VISIBLE. SO VERY LIGHT RUB, PLUS A LITTLE ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIPS
THE SPINE HAS PERFECT TYPRFACE. A LITTLE GRUBBINES AND A DOT OF RUB ON THE TIP ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP FROM TOP TO BOTTOM
THE REAR SURFACE IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE FRONT, WITHA COUPLE OF SMALL MARKS AND SOME LIGHT RING RUB
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PRISTINE INNER PANELS
THE LYRIC INNER SLEEVE HAS NO SEAM SPLITS, SOME RECORD SHAPE AND A COUPLE OF TINY TEARS TO THE TOP EDGE
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX+
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
