THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BLUE AND SILVER LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS. THE COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS JUST ONE SPIDER LINE ON EACH SIDE OF THE SPINDLE HOLE , AND COUPLED WITH THE CONDITION OF THE VINYL AND HOW THIS PLAYS I AM CERTAIN THAT THIS ALBUM HAS HAD 2 PLAYS OR FEWER
THE VINYL
THIS HEAVYWEIGHT DISC IS IN SUPERB CONDITON. THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE OF THE VINYL HAS BEEN RETAINED WITH A DEEP GLOSSY SHEEN, AND IN DAYLIGHT THE VINYL IS SPOTLESS. NO MARKS OR HANDLING LINES, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING MORE THAN A FEW WISPY LINES
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 ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH, AS I AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS. THIS IS BECAUSE I BELIEVE BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE CHANCE TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID, AND IT'S A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE ALBUMS PLAYS SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH, AND THE FIRST THING TO POINT OUT IS THAT THERE IS NO DISTORTION AT ANY POINT THROUGH THE PLAYTHROUGH. CLEARLY THE COUPLE OF PLAYS THIS ALBUM HAS RECEIVED WERE COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM WHICH HAS A CORRECTLY TRACKED AND WEIGHTED STYLUS WHICH WAS ALSO IN UNWORN CONDITION
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PURE DECCA FIRST PRESS. LOUD AND CLEAR WITH A CRISPNESS TO THE AUDIO
THERE IS NO SERIOUS BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS, JUST THE OCCASIONAL BIT OF LIGHT STATICAND VINYL NOISE AND A FEW LITTLE TICS HERE AND THERE, CERTAINLY MOVING FROM 18 INCHES TO NORMAL LISTENING DISTANCE AND EVEN THIS MINOR STUFF CANNOT BE HEARD
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT
PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE AND NON LAMINATED REAR, ROBERT STACE SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE JUST MAGNIFICENT. TOTALLY FLAT AND CLEAN, AND THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR.
THERE ARE NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE, AND INCREDIBLY JUST A COUPLE OF REALLY MINUSCULE LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE
NO THUMB LINES EITHER AND NO LAMINATE PEEL OR FLAKE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE IN MINT CONDITION, WITH NO SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER, AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE PERFECT IN EVERY WAY
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PROPERLY INTACT. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THERE IS JUST ONE REALLY SMALL CREASE LINE JUST BELOW THE TITLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND INCREDIBLY NOT ONE THUMB NAIL NICK TO EITHER SIDE.
THE REAR SURFACE IS MORE PRONE TO WEAR THAN THE FRONT, AND ON THIS COPY THERE IS JUST THE LIGHTEST TRACE OF SOME VERY FINE LIGHT TAN MOTTLING AROUND THE PERIMTER EDGES ONLY.
ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECT, SHOWING NO RUBBING OR WEAR WHATSOEVER
THE ORIGINAL BLUE AND WHITE INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND IS IN EXCEPTIONAL UNSPLIT CONDITION, WITH JUST ONE CORNER HAVING A CREASE LINE ACROSS IT
HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
