LABELS: MINT-
Clean, bright and unmarked labels which retain their strong vibrant colour and carry only one light spindle trace per side
VINYL Visual: MINT-
Both surfaces shine like-new with no dulling and apart from one or two superficial light hairlines (of no audio significance) it looks like it was pressed yesterday
VINYL Audio: MINT
Stunning sound quality - incredibly sharp, fresh and immediate with a strong, loud, punchy MONO cut and my play-check at loud volume revealed nothing to fault - flawless sound performance throughout.
This a really sensational copy which has clearly been very carefully handled and possibly only ever played once!
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT++/VERY GOOD++
The laminated front has a deep, glass-like glossy sheen which is unrubbed and practically like-new. The untreated white back has some light marks, a small dent towards the opening edge and some tiny nicks on the bottom of the opening edge (all fairly minor - please see close up photos). The top/bottom edges and spine are crisp and square with no creasing and all spine text is clear and bold. Overall, a very fine example
INNER SLEEVE: EXCELLENT++
Clean and unmarked with no seam splits
