Disc
Labels: MINT
A perfect pair with NO spindle trails or wear to or around either centre hole.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Factory-fresh, deep-gloss playing surfaces which are totally unmarked in strong daylight with just a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines & sparkling rainbow shine beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp.
Sound Quality: NEAR MINT
Possibly unplayed, this exceptionally clean & totally unworn sounding copy does not disappoint. The only reason preventing a straight MINT grade is 2 light clicks on 'A Hard Day's Night'. A very tough one to upgrade.
Cover: EXCELLENT +
An exceptional, unworn vibrant example which retains a sparkling high-gloss front panel laminate free from any marks, thumbnails or other traces of wear. All corners are are sharp & square and both opening edges unworn. The rear panel is clean & white where is should be and all flipbacks are intact & unworn
Both seams are smooth & unstressed and the spine is fully laminated & worded.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT +
