THE LABELS
THE DARK BLUE SURFACE ON BOTH LABELS IS PRISTINE AND UNMARKED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED. IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS ALBUM HAS BARELY SEEN THE LIGHT OF DAY AND EVEN A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS THAT THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES NEAR THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE DISC GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS, AND ONLY WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE A COUPLE OF MINOR BLEMISHES. SIDE ONE HAS ONE BARELY VISIBLE SMALL WISPY SURFACE HANDLING LINE AND THERE ARE TWO ON SIDE TWO WHICH ARE SLIGHTLY LONGER. ALL THREE ARE JUST VERY VERY LIGHT AND HAVE NO IMPACT ON THE SOUND WHATSOEVER
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 WHOLE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY 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
THE LP PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY THROUGH BOTH SIDES AND CERTAINLY HAS NO DISTORTION TO THE CRYSTAL CLEAR STEREO REPRODUCTION
THE LP PLAYS SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES
NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLES, AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS
NO AUDIBLE BACKGROUND OTHER THAN A SPECK IN THE RUN OUT TO EACH SIDE, IN THE DEAD WAX ONLY. PROBABLY NEEDS A BETTER CLEAN THERE
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS ALBUM MINT MINUS FOR THE AUDIO
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN. THE COLOURS ARE IMMACULATE, PROTECTED BY THE LAMINATE THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, NOR ARE THERE ANY BENDS OR FOLDS.
THERE ARE JUST TWO PRESSURE LINES AGAUINST THR SPINE. ONE SMALL ONE IN THE MIDDLE AND ONE RIGHT AT THE TOP WHICH STRETCHES ACROSS THE TOP LEFT CORNER
THERE ARE THREE LINES ONE THE TOP EDGE,NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR. NO COLOUR LOSS. THERE IS A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT TIP ENDS
THE SPINE HAS A COUPLE OF FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSIONS, BUT ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PRISTINE, INCLUDING THE TIP ENDS, AND THE TYPEFACE IS ALSO PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND EVERY BIT AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT WAS PUT TOGETHER. NOT ONE THUMB NAIL NICK PRESENT
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS CLEAN AND TIDY AS THE FRONT .JUST THREE MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE
NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE FRONT OR BACK!!
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE HAS NO SEAMS PLITS, BUT IS A LITTLE AGED AT THE EDGES
THIS IS WITHOUT A DOUBT A GREAT SLEEVE IN NICE CONDITION AND I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING IT NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
