All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if successful.
This record is in near mint condition. It has no obvious spindle marks visible on the labels but there are a few incredibly light lines showing when viewed under bright light. There is at most 7 or 8 on side 2, with no more than 4 on side 1. Neither side has pen marks, scuffs, fading or any other damage. The centre holes are not loose and overall the labels are in superb condition and appear near immaculate in normal light.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are beautifully clean and near spotless in normal light with just one extremely minor thin line visible on side 2. This shows under bright light along with a few more incredibly soft wispy lines but there isnt many of these and of course nothing remotely sinister. The record has no scuffs or blemishes and has a stunning vivid shine. It is in remarkable condition and cant have been played much.
I did play test the record however and it plays near perfectly. It lays flat, but upon playing there is a hint of upward movement noticable in the record arm. There is therefore the slightest possible amount of a 'dish warp' to the record. This really is incredibly minor however and is really the only thing I can criticise the record on as the audio produced is superb. Its crisp, dynamic and really clear with just the slightest trace of surface noise in the run, between tracks and in the run out. There is also the most miniscule trace in the quiet intros to tracks 1 and 2 on side 2, but this really is pretty minor and can only just be heard on my system which is of good quality and pretty revealing. There are obviously no skips, sticks or clicks and no other serious musical issues. Its an audio experience of very high quality and was a priviledge to play test such a superb sounding rarity. If you would like to see the record in action to see just how minor the 'dish warp' is then feel free to ask and I will happily supply a video of the record playing for you to get a better understanding.
The front laminated sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It has next to no wear to the edges and corners(pics), and the writing along the spine is all clearly legible. It is clean, bright, has a strong spine and there are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There is next to no ring marks visible and barely any creasing to the laminated front. There is a hint of age related grubbiness to the rear but overall this is still pretty sharp for its age. There is also an incredibly faint and minor 'tape removal' mark near the centre of the front left edge. This is only jsut visible when tilted and really is minor. I have tried to capture the sleeves condition as best I can in the pictures provided so please study these to gain as much information as possible.
It contains its original plain white inner in excellent condition with no splits, tears, pen marks or major issues but some minor creasing and slight age related discolouring.
The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to ensure swift delivery.
