CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT +
A first-class set with just a few light spindle trails around each centre hole.
A section of the silver centre hole marks is still visible on label 1.
Visual: Side 1. EXCELLENT Side 2. EXCELLENT +
Outstanding, clean & glossy surfaces which shine 'as new' in strong daylight with no clouding or dulling to any area.
Side 1 displays 4 light, non-feelable long fingernail scuffs but these do not affect sound or play in any way. Side 2 is completely unmarked.
Close inspection directly beneath my halogen desk lamp reveals just a sparkling rainbow shine & a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines but no other marks or wear whatsoever.
This is an extremely heavy copy pressed on top quality vinyl which lies 100% flat on the turntable both sides.
Play: NEAR MINT
This wonderful sounding copy has received just a small amount of extremely careful play on high-end equipment.
I am pleased to report that the sound is 'as new' throughout with no trace of any groove/play wear distortion or any background noise anywhere.
Even the easily damaged tracks such as: 'Eleanor Rigby', 'Here There & Everywhere' & 'Yellow Submarine' are totally unworn and interference-free.
Both run-ins and all bands play silently with not a single click or tick anywhere on this superb copy.
Cover
EXCELLENT
A superb strong and undamaged example where the only significant fault is some toning to the front panel.
The laminate itself is bright and retains its high-gloss finish with not a single 'thumbnail' or spine bend in sight.
There are tiny bruises to the corners and a touch of wear to the rear opening edge but certainly nothing major.
The rear panel is perfectly clean & black with no fingermarks, ringwear, writing or missing paper.
All flipbacks, seams and the fully worded spine are smooth and totally undamaged.
All corners and opening edges are undamaged, as is the perfectly white & untarnished rear panel.
All flipbacks, seams and the spine are in perfect condition and undamaged.
Inner-sleeve
EXCELLENT
Clean & flat with light toning and the inevitable faint disc impression but no writing, tears or splits.
- Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp based on UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
- I carefully play every record I sell on a $5,000 Rega P9 turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.
- All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
- All records are professionally & securely in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover.
