THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE CHARCOAL BLACK LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE AND THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS BOTH UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE NEXT TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
SUPERB GLEAMING ORIGINAL PRESS DISC THAT LOOKS FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE AND THAT'S ALL
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 NOW DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
EVERY NOTE IS HEARD EXACTLY HOW IT WAS INTENDED. DISTORTION FREE AS WELL MEANING THAT THE CAREFUL PLAY THE RECORD HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A HIFI THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS.
THE VINYL PLAYS ABSOLUTELY SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR LOUD CLICKS.
THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND I DIDN'T HEAR ANY STATIC AT ANY POINT, APART FROM A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES
I HEARD NO DUST POPS WHATSOEVER THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
A FLAWLESS AUDIO PERFORMANCE THAT I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE 100% MINT MINUS
PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
SEMI LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. THE DEEP BLUE COLOURS ARE ALL PERFECT AND HAVE REMAINED UNRUBBED. THERE IS A TINY LITTLE DING TO THE TOP LEFT CORNER.
THERE ARE JUST THREE SMALL LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH PRISTINE AND HAVE NO COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER. EVEN THE FOUR CORNER TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED. THE TOP EDGE ALSO HAS THE SPINE WORDING ON IT, AND THIS TOO IS PERFECT
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. THE TOP TIP HAS A TINY SPECK OF WHITE SHOWING. THE BOTTOM TIP IS PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED. THERE ARE THREE PIN PRICKS OF WHITE ON THE TOP LEADING EDGE WHERE THE THREE SMALL LINES NEAR THE SPINE ON THE FRONT SURFACE HAVE TOUCHED THE SPINE. THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP WITHOUT ANY THUMB NAIL NICKS WHATSOEVER
THE REAR SURFACE LIKE THE FRONT IS IN UNBLEMISHED CONDITION AND AGAIN NO RUBBING TO THE COLOUR HERE. THERE IS ONE TINY LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE, AND ONE LONGER LINE RUNNING FROM THE BOTTOM EDGE TOWARDS THE OPENING EDGE. IT IS ABOUT THREE INCHES LONG
THE POLY LINED PICTURE / LYRIC INSERT IS IN PERFECT CONDITION. FLAT AND UNSPLIT IT HAS NO MARKS OR STAINS AT ALL
THIS SLEEVE GRADES NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
