CONDITION
Disc
Labels: NEAR MINT
A pristine set with no more than three of four tiny faint spindle marks around each completely unworn centre hole.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Immaculate factory-fresh which are completely unmarked in strong daylight with literally just one or two barely visible harmless wispy paper hairlines directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp. both sides of this superb copy lie 100% flat on the turntable when playing.
Sound Quality: MINT
This flawless sounding copy has been played less than a handful of times on high-end equipment and sounds as fine as the day it was pressed.
Cover: EXCELLENT
A tough cover to find in this shape due to it's matt finish, but this example is extremely clean & unworn with just a hint of storage to the panels, but no creasing, bends or any other blemishes. All corners and both opening edges are sharp and unworn and both seams and the spine are unstressed & unsplit.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT
Clean & white with no marks, writing or missing paper anywhere. Downgraded only due to a 3cm lower seam split.
