Description
BAND: PINK FLOYD
ALBUM: A SAUCERFUL OF SECRETS
INFO: RARE UK VERY 1ST PRESS BLUE-BLACK COLUMBIA LABEL, SCX 6258, 'SOLD IN UK' LABEL TEXT, MATRIX - YAX 3633-1 / YAX 3634 - 1, G SIDE 1 STAMP / R STAMP SIDE 2, LAMINATED FLIP-BACK PATENTS PENDING GARROD & LOFTHOUSE SLEEVE.
SLEEVE:OVERALL THE SLEEVE IS IN VG+ CONDITION. LAMINATED FRONT COVER IS CLEAN AND HAS A GREAT SHINE, THERE IS SOME CREASING TO THE FRONT COVER, ONE LARGISH CREASE DOWN THE LEFT HAND SIDE AND ONE LARGE CREASE CENTRE RIGHT OF THE SLEEVE, ONE ALSO TOP RIGHT AND A FEW OTHER MINOR CREASES. NONE OF THE CREASES HAVE SPLIT AT ALL AND ALL LAMINATE IS STILL IN-TACT. THERE IS NO WRITING OR STICKER MARKS AND NO AREAS OF MAJOR DAMAGE AT ALL. THE OPEN EDGE WHERE THE LAMINATE HAS STOPPED IS FLAT WITH SLIGHT RUBBING FROM HANDLING BUT NO SPLITS OR AREAS OF MAJOR DAMAGE.
THE SPINE IS FINE, ALL TEXT IS READABLE THE SMALLEST AMOUNT OF RUBBING TO THE BOTTOM CORNER. SOME CREASES ACROSS THE SPINE BUT NO AREAS OF DAMAGE AND THE SPINE HASN'T SPLIT ANYWHERE. THE TOP EDGE IS EXCELLENT. THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS ONE SMALL NICK AND THE SLIGHTEST RUBBING TO THE BOTTOM OPEN EDGE CORNER.
THE FLIP-BACK COVER IS EXCELLENT. SOME CREASES TO THE LAMINATED AREAS ON THE BACK COVER AND SLIGHT RUBBING WHERE THE LAMINATE CEASES BUT THE CORNER JOINTS ARE SOLID AND HAVENT LIFTED. THE MAIN BACK IMAGE IS EXCELLENT AND CLEAN AND FLAT. THERE ARE NO AREAS OF WRITING OR AREAS OF RUBBING OR DAMAGE, NO STAINS OR MARKS. STRANGELY THE INNER OF THE SLEEVE (THE CARDBOARD INSIDE THAT HOLDS THE RECORD HAS TWO NAMES WRITTEN INSIDE) SO OBVIOUSLY YOU CAN ONLY SEE THIS IF YOU ACTUALLY LOOK INSIDE THE SLEEVE. iT'S BETTER THAN WRITING YOUR NAME ON THE OUTSIDE I SUPPOSE!
VINYL: VISUALLY THE VINYL WOULD GRADE AS VG+ THERE ARE SOME WHISPY LINES AND SOME NEEDLE MARKS ON BOTH SIDES. ONE SCRATCH THAT CAN'T BE FELT ON SIDE 2 ACROSS 2 TRACKS. IT HAS BEEN PLAYED OBVIOUSLY. THE AUDIO THOUGH GRADES FAR BETTER THAN THE VISUAL GRADING. THERE IS HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AT ALL BETWEEN TRACKS, NOTHING VISUALLY AFFECTS PLAY AT ALL AND THE SOUND IS AMAZING, THIS IS THE FIRST PRESS AFTER ALL. THE BASS SOUND IS FANTASTIC ON 'LET THERE BE MORE LIGHT' WHEN THE ALBUM STARTS. AS I SAY VISUALLY NOT AS STRONG BUT THE SOUND IS GREAT THROUGHOUT ON BOTH SIDES, NO STICKS JUMPS OR CLICKS AND MINIMAL SURFACE NOISE BETWEEN TRACKS, NOTHING THAT AFFECTS THE AUDIO IN ANY WAY. THERE ARE SOME SPINDLE MARKS VISIBLE ON THE LABEL WHICH ARE BOTH CLEAN WITH NO STICKER MARKS, WRITING OR DAMAGE AT ALL.
THE ALBUM HAS BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER AND STORED WITHIN A PVC SLEEVE AT ALL TIMES.
