THE PARLOPHONE LABELS TO BOTH SIDES ARE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION.

THIS IMPRESSIVE SET OF LABELS HAVE RETAINED THEIR ORIGINAL DEEP BLACK COLOURING WITH PERFECT TEXT TO BOTH SIDES.
THE GLOSSY MIRROR LIKE VINYL IS AGAIN NEAR MINT, AGAIN CLOSE INSPECTION REVEALS JUST THE ODD VERY LIGHT SIGN OF HANDLING BUT ABSOLUTELY NO SIGNS OF ACTUAL PLAY, IT HAS TO BE STRESSED THAT THESE MINIMAL TINY HANDLING MARKS ARE HARD TO DETECT AND IN NORMAL DAYLIGHT THIS BEAUTIFUL VINYL APPEARS TO BE MINT. THE VINYL DOES OF COURSE LIE PERFECTLY FLAT AND AGAIN DISPLAYS AN "AS NEW" APPEARANCE.
THE MONO AUDIO IS FLAWLESS...... ONE CAREFUL PLAY REVEALED A PERFECT AND UNINTERRUPTED AUDIO WITH PERFECT CLARITY...THIS WAS A JOY TO LISTEN TO!
THE ORIGINAL EMITEX INNER IS SUPERB WITH VIRTUALLY NO SIGNS OF AGE AND HANDLING. IT IS STILL ITS ORIGINAL BRIGHT WHITE COLOUR WITH NO YELLOWING AND ABSOLUTELY NO HANDLING MARKS OR WEAR. THE INNER IS STILL VERY VERY CRISP AND HAS ONLY SUFFERED THE EXPECTED STORAGE CREASES FROM THE VINYL SITTING IN THE SLEEVE.
THE OUTER GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE "PATENTS PENDING" LAMINATED SLEEVE, WHICH CARRIES THE 1ST PRESSING OUTLINED "MONO" IS QUITE EXCEPTIONAL. THE FRONT PANEL IS STILL PERFECTLY GLOSSY AND BRIGHT WITH ABSOLUTELY NO HANDLING MARKS PRESENT, WHEN ANGLED IN A CERTAIN LIGHT IT IS POSSIBLY TO DETECT THREE VERY LIGHT EDGE WRINKLES TO THE SPINE EDGE AND ONE VERY TINY "THUMBNAIL" IMPRESSION TOWARDS THE OPENING EDGE BUT IN FAIRNESS THESE ARE REALLY NOT SIGNIFICANT. THERE ARE NO ACTUAL CREASES TO THE FRONT. THE FRONT IS COMPLETELY FLAT WITH A VIBRANT AS NEW SHEEN AND A PERFECT BRIGHT WHITE COLOUR.THE REAR IS JUST AS GOOD AS THE FRONT, AGAIN IT DISPLAYS ABSOLUTELY NO CREASES, YELLOWING OR HANDLING MARKS. ALL THREE FLIP-BACKS ARE UNDAMAGED AND ARE AS MANUFACTURED. THE REAR DISPLAYS PERFECT PICTURES AND TEXT AND HAS RETAINED ITS GENUINE SNOWY WHITE APPEARANCE. THE SPINE IS PERFECT AND RIGID WITH NO WEAR OR CREASES AND DISPLAYS PERFECT TEXT..... A GENUINE SUPERIOR EXAMPLE!
