Note; In my opinion the grading of vinyl records is at best subjective, with this in mind All my gradings will be on the conservative side in conjunction with the Record Collectors Price Guide. Please bear this in mind when viewing my vinyl record listings.
CONDITION;
DISC; LABELS, EXCELLENT / EXCELLENT.
Both labels are in lovely clean condition with all the text in as new condition, in bright light they show just a very few faint spindle trails around each of the virtually unworn spindle holes.
VISUAL, ( In normal daylight ) EXCELLENT / EXCELLENT + ( Under Halogen Lamp ) EXCELLENT- / VERY GOOD +
Both playing surfaces still retain their deep, black high gloss sheen. Under my strong halogen lamp I could only detect just a very few light wispy paper / stylus non – feelable hairlines . The ‘ Strawberry Fields ‘ Side shows three slightly darker rings that run with the grooves but they NOT scratches and are NON – Feelable.
AUDIO, EXCELLENT.
After one very careful play of both sides of this disc the disc played with NO skips ,jumps or stalls. On the ‘ Strawberry Fields… ‘ side there was some light intermittent background crackle evident which resulted in some lessening of the sound quality, but nothing in any way serious. The ‘ Penny Lane ‘ side played with superb quality with just a little very light background on the run in .
SLEEVE ; EXCELLENT / EXCELLENT .
This the Original very delicate paper picture sleeve is in simply lovely all round condition in fact it is one of the very best that I have ever seen. It shows NO rips, tears, seam split / repairs, heavy creasing . The fragile wavy top edge is in excellent order Overall it shows just a little very very light age toning and a very few light creases,
In my opinion it would be hard to find a better example.
