THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE TAN AND RED EMI LABELS ARE JUST MAGNIFICENT. THERE ARE NO MARKS, STAINS OR ANYTHING ELSE TO MAR THE SUPERB CONDITION THAT THEY ARE IN. THE COLOURS FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED. THERE IS JUST ONE MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINE BY THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
INCREDIBLE GLOSSY MINT CONDITION VINYL, THAT HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE.
EVEN UNDER AN LED MAGNIFYING HALO THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE. A SUPERB RECORD
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH SUPERBLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS. .
THE CLARITY OF THIS PRESS IS JUST BRILLIANT. THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND THE SUBLIME STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST ABOUT PERFECT
ALL I HEARD DURING THE PLAY WAS A COUPLE OF ROTATIONS OF LOW LEVEL EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE JUST AS KILLER QUEEN STARTS. THIS VERY QUICKLY DISSAPPEARSA COUPLE OF TINY SPECKS OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND INA SILENT PASSAGE OR TWO
THERE ARE NO DUST POPS OR STATIC TICS AUDIBLE AT ALL THROUGH THE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS
BUT DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, LISTEN TO IT YOURSELF AND BE THE JUDGE
THE SLEEVE
FLIMSY LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE WHICH IS VERY OFTEN FOUND IN POOR CONDITION. HERE HOWEVER WE HAVE AN INCREDIBLE EXAMPLE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND PERFECTLY CLEAN.
THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND HAS SUFFERED NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, NOR ARE THERE AND BENDS.
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE, AND THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
AND INCREDIBLY ON THIS WAFER THIN SLEEVE JUST THREE OF THE MOST MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE. ONE TINY ONE ON THE TOP EDGE, ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND FULLY LAMINATED. THIS IS BECAUSE THE SLEEVE WAS PROTECTED FROM NEW INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE.THE TOP EDGE ALSO HAS THE SAME TYPEFACE ON IT AS DOES THE SPINE , WHEREAS LATER ISSUES DID NOT HAVE THIS INFORMATION
THE BOTTOM EDGE JUST HAS A PIN PRICK RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE SPINE IS ALSO IN PRISTINE CONDITION. , FULLY LAMINATED AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS LEGIBLE.ALSO TOTALLY FLAT AND UN-SQUASHED. NO COLOUR LOSS AND EVEN THE TIP ENDS ARE UN-RUBBED
THE OPENING EDGE IS VERY SHARP WITH JUST A TINY BIT OF FEATHERING AT THE BOTTOM
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS BRILLIANT AS THE FRONT. AGAIN GLEAMING LAMINATE AND JUST TWO TINY PRESSURE LINES ON THE SPINE AND TWO ON THE TOP EDGE
THE ANGLE CORNERED INNER SLEEVE INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION.
PERFECTLY WHITE . NO CREASE MARKS AND ONLY A TINY PIN HOLE SPLIT ON THE BOTTOM SEAM
VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
