Description
SUPERB MINT MINUS AUDIO
NEAR MINT GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SLEEVE
UK 1ST PRESS
FINAL UPGRADE
THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PASTEL BLUE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND IS UNMARKED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS JUST ONE 1-2 SPIDER LINES
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER AN LED MAGNIFYING HALO THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A COUPLE OF NEAR INVISIBLE TINY WISPY HAIRLINES
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS SOUNDS.
VERY SCARCE ALBUM TO FIND IN THIS OUTSTANDING CONDITION
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE ON ANY PART OF THIS ALBUM, AND NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO DISTORTION, THUS NO GROOVE WEAR
NO MORE THAN 2-3 TINY LITTLE DUST TICS OR POPS
THE VINYL JUST PLAYS SUBLIMELY ALL THE WAY THROUGH
THE ODD MINUSCULE SPECK OF BARELY AUDIBLE SPLIT SECOND OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND
A FINAL UPGRADE EXAMPLE AND I GRADE THE AUDIO MINT MINUS
DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, HAVE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED FRONT. NON LAMINATED REAR WITH FLIPBACKS
SINGLE SLEEVE FROM GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE
HARD TO COLLECT IF YOU WANT A NEAR PRISTINE OR ABOVE EXAMPLE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN, THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, NOR ARE THERE ANY BENDS OR DINGS.
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE, AND THREE OF THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH THE BOTTOM RIGHT ONE HAVING A LITTLE WEAR
THE COLOURS ARE IMMACULATE . FREE FROM RUB OR FADE
THERE ARE SIX SMALL PRESSURE LINSE AGAINST THE SPINE, FOUR IN THE RIGHT CORNER ALONG THE TOP EDGE, THREE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ONE THUMB LINE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE NO SHELF WEAR, OR RUBBING AND THE COLOUR RUNS ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE TWO SURFACES WITH JUST A SPECK OF RUB ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND FULLY COLOURED. NO WEAR OR RUB AND THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. BOTH TOP AND BOTTOM END HAVE NO RUB WHATSOEVER
THE OPENING EDGE ONLY HAS A LITTLE SPORADIC FEATHERING
THE REAR SURFACE OF THIS SLEEVE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT . AND HERE THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THE FLIPBACKS ARE PERFECTLY ADHERED. THE STEREO STICKER IS THE SAME AND THE PLAIN WHITE SURFACE IS STILL VERY WHITE
THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS PERFECT
HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
