THE LABELS
THE ORANGY RED POLYDOR LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THERE IS NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SPINDLE HAS NO SPIDER LINES AROUND IT WHATSOEVER
THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND TOTALLY UNRUBBED AND UNWORN,AND THERE ARE STILL SHARDS OF VINYL INSIDE THE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A BRAND NEW DISC. IT HAS NO MARKS OF ANY KIND AT ALL ON ANY PART OF THE SURFACE AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEEA PRISTINE UNPLAYED DISC
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 WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE LP BEFORE LAYING A BID.
THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE CLARITY OF THIS FIRST PRESS IS THERE FOR ALL TO HEAR. A VERY SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION IS THE ONLY THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DISTORTION TO THE STEREO SOUND WHATSOEVER, AND NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ALL
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO STATIC EVEN IN THE LINKING GROOVES
NO DUST POPS
NO STATIC TICS
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS MINT FINAL UPGRADE
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THIS INCREDIBLE SOUND AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED E.J.DAY GROUP 1ST ISSUE SLEEVE. AN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING EXAMPLE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS, CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES., AND THE ONLY BLEMISH ON THE ENTIRE SLEEVE IS A TINY LITTLE DENT AND SCUFF JUST UNDER THE TOP EDGE
ALMOST EVERY COPY OF THIS I HAVE LOOKED AT OVER THE YEARS HAS RING WEAR AND VARYING DEGREES OF COLOUR LOSS. THIS COPY IS ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE COME ACROSS BECAUSE THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO LOSS OF COLOUR TO THE FRONT SURFACE WHATSOEVER, APART FROM THE SMALL SPECK I HAVE ALREADY MENTIONED
THERE ARE INCREDIBLY ABSOLUTELY ZERO PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE, NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER.
THE TOP EDGES ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION, BOTH SURFACES ARE FULLY COLOURED ALL THE WAY ACROSS
THE BOTTOM EDGES HAVE A COUPLE OF TINY THIN WHITE FLECKS ON THE REAR SURFACE NEAR THE LEFT CORNER
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED THE BLACK SURFACE IS STILL IN PERFECT CONDITION THE TOP TIP IS UNBLEMISHED, WHILST THE BOTTOM TIP HAS A PIN PRICK OF RUB. THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND PRISTINE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ONE SINGLE THUMB NAIL NICK
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME AMAZING CONDITION AS THE FRONT, AGAIN WHAT MAKES THIS UNUSUAL IS THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO RING WEAR AT ALL. THE BLACK SURFACE IS PERFECT. CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A FRONT PANEL WITH A MINT IMAGE OF NODDY HOLDER. THE REAR PANEL IS ALSO MINT
THE 8 PAGE 12" BOOKLET IS PERFECTLY AFFIXED IN IT'S ORIGINAL PLACE AND IS ALSO IN SUPERB ORIGINAL UNBLEMISHED CONDITION APART FROM SOME VERY LIGHT FOXING ON THE FRONT PAGE
THE ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT CLEAN AND UNSPLIT.
A SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THIS SLEEVE AND I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE IT MINT MINUS
I AM CERTAIN THAT THIS INCREDIBLE VINYL AND SLEEVE WILL NEVER NEED UPGRADING
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
