CONDITION
Disc
Labels: NEAR MINT
A spectacular clean & unworn set bearing just a small handful of light spindle trails around the side 2 cente hole but none whatsoever on 1.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Pristine deep-gloss, factory-fresh playing surfaces which are unmarked and 'as new' in strong daylight. Closer examination directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp reveals nothing more than some harmless wispy paper hairlines consistent with the few times this disc has been removed from its inner-sleeve, together with a sparkling rainbow shine.
Sound Quality: NEAR MINT
Clearly played a handful of times on quality equipment, this fine sounding copy plays cleanly & clearly throughout with a warmth & depth missing from any other pressing - even the new remaster. My single careful play-check at volume found no evidence of any groove/playwear distortion or a single clicks, pops or other such distraction. In fact, apart from a trace of low-level vinyl background on the introduction to 'Here Comes The Sun' and on a few of side 2's other quieter passages, it is flawless and will not disappoint.
Cover: NEAR MINT
This exceptional example retains a sparkling, unworn high-gloss laminate free from any creasing, storagewear rubbing or 'thumbnail' wrinkles on either the front or rear panels.
There are tiny bruises to the left corners but both opening edges are undamaged and unworn.
Both seams are smooth & unstressed and the spine is clean & fully worded.
Both seams are smooth & unstressed and the spine is clean & fully worded.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT
Uncreased & flat with some age-toning but no writing, tears or seam splits.
