CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT +
A super clean & unworn pair with just a small collection of well-aimed spindle trails around each unworn centre hole.
Visual: EXCELLENT +
Pristine deep-gloss playing surfaces which are totally unmarked in strong daylight. Close and careful inspection beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp reveals little more than some barely visible wispy paper hairlines consistent with inner-sleeve removal, but no other visual blemishes or wear of any kind. Both sides of this 1st-class copy lie 100% flat on the turntable when playing.
Play: EXCELLENT +
This well looked after copy has received just a small amount of extremely careful play on top-quality equipment. The sound is clean, warm and ry and free from any groove/play wear distortion. Apart from a touch of light vinyl background on 'Michelle', my single careful play-check found no significant or major audible faults or wear. One to really enjoy.
Cover: EXCELLENT +
A fine clean & strong example which retains an unscratched, high-gloss front panel laminate with just a singe faint 'thumbnail' wrinkle but no other signs of wear. All corners are sharp and unbumped and there is just a hint of wear to the rear opening edge only. The rear panel itself is perfectly clean, white and unblemished and all flipbacks are clean and fully intact. To top it all, both seams and smooth and unstressed and the spine is completely unbent & fully worded.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT
Clean and crisp with a few minor storage creases but no writing, tears or seam splits.
**PLEASE NOTE: This item is located in and will be shipped from AUSTRIA. 1st class international postage to UK addresses will be 7 GBP**
