THE BLACK AND YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABELS TO BOTH SIDES ARE EXCELLENT AND FREE FROM ANY UNWANTED MARKS OR WRITING. LABELS HAVE JUST LIGHT AND MINIMAL SPINDLE MARKS WHICH ARE PRESENT MAINLY UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT, LABELS CARRY "THE PARLOPHONE CO" RIM TEXT,"RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED" BUT NO "SOLD IN UK" TEXT. BOTH SIDES ARE EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN,BRIGHT AND CRISP.
THE HEAVY WEIGHT GLOSSY VINYL IS SUPERB WITH JUST LIGHT, SUPERFICIAL SURFACE MARKS. NON ARE SEVERE AND AGAIN THESE ARE ONLY VISIBLE UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT..... VISUALLY THIS ONE LOOKS VERY APPEALING.
SOUND QUALITY IS STUNNING WITH JUST VERY MINOR CRACKLE BETWEEN THE ODD TRACK BUT NOTHING WHICH SPOILS THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE. AURALLY THIS ONE SOUNDS AS GOOD AS IT LOOKS.
COMPLETE WITH ORIGINAL EMITEX INNER WHICH IS EXCELLENT. IT IS STILL WHITE AND STILL VERY CRISP.
HOUSED IN ITS ORIGINAL "E.J. DAY" TRI-FLIP BACK LAMINATED SLEEVE WHICH WAS ORIGINALLY USED FOR THE FIRST "BLACK AND GOLD" PRESSINGS. GIVEN ITS AGE THIS SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE SLEEVE IS EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN WITH JUST THE EXPECTED "SPOTS" AND LIGHT MARKS TO REAR. THE SLEEVE HAS NO LAMINATE LIFT AND SUFFERS JUST THE ODD CREASE. IT HAS SOME MINOR CORNER WEAR . THE OPENING EDGE DISPLAYS JUST A SMALL AMOUNT OF HANDLING AND IS STRAIGHT AND TRUE. THE REAR OF THE SLEEVE IS STILL ITS ORIGINAL WHITE COLOUR WITH NO FADING OR "BROWNING" AS COMMON WITH THESE SLEEVES, THE SLEEVE IS COMPLETELY FREE FROM ANY UNWANTED MARKS OR WRITING. THE BOTTOM SEAM CARRIES SOME CREASING. THE SLEEVE IS COMPLETELY INTACT AND THE SEAM IS STILL RIGID WITH NO WEAR WHATSOEVER AND ALL WORDING IS READABLE
OVERALL THIS REALLY IS A SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THIS CLASSIC ALBUM WHICH NOT ONLY LOOKS STUNNING BUT DELIVERS A SUPER SOUND QUALITY.
