LABELS: NEAR MINT
Clean, bright and unmarked labels with just one or two light spindle traces. The spindle hole is still quite tight
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT++
Both surfaces are clean and practically unmarked - they display only fine wispy hairlines under bright light
VINYL Audio: EXCELLENT++
My play-check at loud volume revealed no major audio issues of note (just a couple of isolated 'pops' caused by tiny pin-point white flecks within the vinyl - present from manufacture - very hard to see). Apart from these the record plays beautifully to a NM standard with no other audible distractions of any kind and exceptionally clean sound - important for this LP as there are many gentle, quiet moments
SLEEVE: VERY GOOD++
The outer textured sleeve is good and solid with some storage rubbing to the edges - all text on the spine is clear and bold. The outer surfaces have some 'rippling' and a tiny touch of paper loss to the top front corner - I have tried to capture all of these on the photos below - otherwise, fine condition
VERTIGO INNER : EXCELLENT
The inner bag has the normal age-related discolouration but is otherwise unmarked and there are no seam splits
ALL RECORDS ARE PACKAGED WITH THE VINYL OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE TO PREVENT ANY 'KNIFING' DURING TRANSIT
A PROTECTIVE POLY SLEEVE, NEW INNER SLEEVE WITH ANTI-STATIC LINER, QUALITY BOX (NOT ENVELOPE) MAILER AND AMPLE STIFFENERS ARE ALWAYS USED TO ENSURE THAT YOUR RECORD ARRIVES SAFELY
