THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE GREY LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT, AND THE PURPLE SECTION IS STILL PERFECT AND NOT SOILED AT ALL. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.THERE IS JUST ONE TINY SPIDER LINE NEXT TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL SET HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE, AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS WITH JUST A FEW MINUSCULE LIGHT HAIRLINES BARELY VISIBLE BARELY, WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION, A REALLY GLEAMING STUNNING COPY
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 ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THIS FIRST PRESS DISC PLAYS SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH. AS I HAVE ALREADY SAID IT HAS BARELY BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE. THERE IS CERTAINLY NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT THE LITTLE PLAY IT HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS
THE CLARITY OF THIS STEREO REPRODUCTION IS MAGNIFICENT, AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD EXACTLY AS IT WAS INTENDED
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS THROUGH THE PLAYTHROUGH
NO VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER EITHER
A TINY SPECK OF STATIC LIKE STUFF OCCASIONALLY FOR A SPLIT SECOND OR TWO. I HEARD NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS STUNNING CONDITION. IT HAS CLEARLY BEEN WELL PROTECTED FROM NEW
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS AND HAS NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES. THE STICKER IS FIRMLY AFFIXED IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER.
THERE ARE ZERO!! LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE . NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEXT TO THE OPENING EDGE. THERE IS ONE TINY DOT OF WHITE VISIBLE AT THE TOP OF THE PINK BAND JUST ON THE TOP EDGE
THE TOP EDGE IS PERFECT WITH THE LAMINATED SURFACE RUNNING ACROSS BOTH SURFACES WITHOUT ANY RUBBING OR LOSS OF COLOUR. EVEN THE TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS ALMOST IDENTICAL WITH A LITTLE RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIPS
THE WIDE SPINE IS 100% FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. AGAIN ALL OF THE COLOUR IS PERFECT AND THERE IS NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE ALL, AND THIS INCLUDES THE TIP ENDS. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGES ARE STILL RAZOR SHARP,AND IT'S HERE THAT THE FIRST IDEA OF HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN PLAYED IS VISIBLE, THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE THUMB NAIL NICK TO THE THE REAR EDGE
THE REAR SURFACE WHILST AGAIN IS UNCREASED, ONE SMALL LINE NEXT TO THE OPENING EDGE. THE GOLD 'PROMO' STAMP IS PRESSED INTO THE SLEEVE IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE PAIR OF INNER PANELS. ALL OF THE COLOURS ARE THERE AND THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED FLIMSY LYRIC/PICTURE INNER SLEEVES ARE INCLUDED,
THERE IS A LITTLE AGEING SIGNS TO THE EDGES AND A FEW FOXING MOTTLES. NO SPLITS TO THE SEAMS AND NO HEAVY CREASE LINES
THE SLEEVE GRADES MINT MINUS WITH EASE
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
