THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE AND STUNNING MINT EXAMPLE OF THIS DOUBLE LP SET. PLAYED NO MORE THAN TWICE EVER, AND IT COMES WITH THE VERY RARE UK SLEEVE

THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE RED AND PLUM LABELS ARE IN TOP CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT, AND THE WHITEBAND IS STILL WHITE AND NOT SOILED AT ALL. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. ON THE SECOND DISC THERE IS STILL VINYL SHARDS INSIDE THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS SET HAS BEEN PLAYED. THERE IS JUST ONE MINISCULE SPIDER LINE BY EACH HOLE AGAIN PROVING THAT THIS LP SET HAS HAD JUST THE ONE VERY CAREFUL PLAY

THE VINYL

THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THE SHEEN IS TOTALLY 'AS NEW' AND IN DAYLIGHT BOTH DISCS ARE FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS JUST NOTHING TO SEE. BARELY A WISPY LINE PER SIDE. I DON'T BELIEVE THERE IS A BETTER PAIR OF DISCS ON THE PLANET

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 2 LP SET FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL OF MY LISTINGS AS I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE LP BEFORE ALYING ABID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE SET PLAYS TO PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, AND THE STEREO REPODUCTION IS JUST SUBLIME. IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS

THERE IS NO VINYL NOISE, NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE, NO STATIC, AND NO CLICKS, AND AS FOR TINY DUST POPS, WELL I THINK I HEARD TWO ALL THE WAY THROUGH ALL FOUR SIDES. JUST AN INCREDIBLE JUST ABOUT UNPLAYED SET FROM 1971. THATS 40 YEARS OLD

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT !!!!!

PLEASE LISTEN TO IT FOR YOURSELF AND YOU BE THE JUDGE

THE SLEEVE

THIS SLEEVE IS THE UK ISSUE WHICH IS VERY HARD TO FIND. MOST COPIES THAT WERE SOLD HERE IN THE UK HAD THE US SLEEVE WITH THE UK DISCS INSIDE. THIS IS ONLY THE SECOND DECENT COPY OF THIS SET WITH THE UK SLEEVE THAT I HAVE COME ACROSS.IN ADDITION THIS SET MUST HAVE BEEN ORIGINALLY UNSOLD, AS INSIDE THE GATEFOLD THE 'KINNEY STICKER' HAS BEEN PLACED OVER THE ORIGINAL ATLANTIC CATALOGUE DETAILS. THE SPINE OF COURSE STILL REFERS TO THE ATLANTIC CATALOGUE NUMBER.

THIS IS A VERY HARD SLEEVE TO FIND IN COLLECTIBLE CONDITION DUE MAINLY BECAUSE THE PRINTED SURFACE WAS VERY EASILY RUBBED, AND MOST COPIES YOU WILL FIND HAVE SEVERE COLOUR RUBBING AND MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, TERRIBLE RING WEAR

THIS SLEEVE HAS ESCAPED NEARLY ALL OF THAT.

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. THERE IS A TINY DING TO THE TOP LEFT CORNER, AND SOME VERY MILD RUBBING (BARELY VISIBLE) TO THE TOP AND TWO SIDE PERIMETER EDGES, WITH A SHADE MORE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. THERE IS NO RING WEAR, AND SURPRISINGLY NO RECORD SHAPE EITHER

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE LIGHT RUBBING AND SHELF WEAR

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THERE IS LIGHT WEAR TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS AND A COUPLE OF WHITE FLECKS SHOWING THROUGH ON THE HIGH EDGES

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME CONDITION AS THE FRONT. AGAIN ALL OF THE COLOURS ARE PRETTY WELL THERE WITH JUST THAT LIGHT SHADOW ALONG THE PERIMETER EDGES, WHER IT JUST LOOKS DUSTY

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A MINT CONDITION TEXTURED INNER SURFACE. THE COLOURS ARE ALL IMMACULATE, NO MARKS STAINS, CREASES OR ANYTHING THAT WOULD MAR THE SURFACE. AS I MENTIONED ABOVE THE KINNEY STICKER HAS BEEN PLACED OVER THE ATLANTIC CATALOGUE NUMBER ON THE RIGHT SIDE

THE ORIGINAL POLYDOR/ATLANTIC POLYLINED INNER SLEEVES ARE IN SUPERB NMINT CONDITION.FLAT, WHITE AND UNSPLIT

THE ORIGINAL LYRIC INSERT IS ALSO INCLUDED AND IS LIKEWISE IN PRISTINE CONDITION

HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE EXCELLENT PLUS

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
