THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

ORIGINAL YELLOW AND BLACK MONO LABELS IN VERY NICE CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR AND YELLOW LOGO'S ARE BOTH UNRUBBED .THE SPINDLE HOLE HAS THE TINIEST BIT OF WEAR ON SIDE  TWO

THERE ARE 6-7 SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISC LOOKS IMMACULATE IN DAYLIGHT. TOTALLY MARK FREE

UNDER SPOTLIGHTS ALL I SEE ARE SOME VERY FINE WISPY HAIRLINES

PLAYING THE RECORD

THIS MONO ALBUM PLAYS SUPERBLY

THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING TO TALK ABOUT IS THE  CLARITY OF THE  REPRODUCTION. 

THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND THE SOUND IS AS CLEAR AND SHARP AS IT POSSIBLE COULD BE. 

THE EARLY MONO BEATLES RECORDINGS WERE ALL JUST INCREDIBLE. MANY MANY COPIES WERE PLAYED ON SYSTEMS THAT HAD A STYLUS THAT WAS TOO HEAVY OR WORN AND CAUSED INVISIBLE GROOVE WEAR. THIS WOULD ONLY BE SPOTTED OR SHOULD I SAY HEARD WHEN PLAYING THE ALBUM AND WOULD TAKE THE FORM OF BEHIND THE MUSIC STATIC AND BE CONTINUOUS. THIS VINYL HAS NONE WHATSOEVER

THE RUN IN IS SILENT, THE LINKING GROOVES ARE NEAR SILENT, AND THE RUN OUT IS SILENT

NO LOUD BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT. JUST THE OCCASIONAL SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN SOME OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES 

NO CLICKS AND JUST 1-2 BARELY AUDIBLE DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

I JUST HAVE TO GRADE THIS ALBUM EX++

THE SLEEVE

THE RARE E.J.DAY AND CO ISSUE OF THIS SLEEVE (MOST ARE GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE)

SO STARTING WITH THE FRONT SURFACE. IT HAS BEEN HOUSED FOR MOST OF IT'S LIFE INSIDE A PROTECTIVE OUTER SLEEVE AND THIS HAS STOPPED ANY CREASING TO THE SURFACE .

THE FRONT SURFACE HAS A GLOSSY LAMINATE THAT GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR.  THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASE LINES, FOLDS OR BENDS, AND EVEN THE CORNERS ARE TOTALLY SQUARE AND SHARP.

THERE ARE JUST TWO MINUSCULE LAMINATE LINES BY THE SPINE,  TWO ON THE TOP EDGE AND FIVE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE LAMINATE IS PRISTINE. NO LIFT, PEEL OR FLAKE ANYWHERE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY WEAR AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT. THE LAMINATE RUNS UNBLEMISHED FROM CORNER TO CORNER

THERE IS A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM CORNER TIPS ONLY

THE SPINE IS ALSO IN MINTCONDITION.  THIS SPINE IS COMPLETELY LAMINATED EVEN THE VERY TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE 100% UNRUBBED.

THE SPINE IS ALSO ABSOLUTELY AND 100% TOTALLY FLAT, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.NO SQUASHING WHATSOEVER

THE OPENING EDGE IS VERY SHARP AND DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ANY THUMB NAIL NICKS SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE ALSO IN THE SAME MAGNIFICENT CONDITION AS THE FRONT, AND INCREDIBLY NO RING WEAR, AND  NOT EVEN ANY SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE NO MATTER HOW MUCH I ANGLE IT INTO A STRONG LIGHT

I DON'T BELIEVE I HAVE EVER SEEN A WHITER EXAMPLE, THERE IS JUST NO AGEING OR HANDLING TO THIS DELICATE AND POROUS SURFACE WHATSOEVER, AND THERE IS NOT ONE IOTA OF RUBBING OR FADING TO THE BLACK TYPEFACE. YOU COULD BE FORGIVEN FOR THINKING THIS HAD JUST BEEN PRINTED AND PRESSED UP

ALL I SEE ARE A COUPLE OF TINY BROWN DOTS

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU WILL FIND A CLEANER AND BETTER EXAMPLE

THE ORIGINAL RICE PAPER LINED INNER SLEEVE HAS SOME FOLD LINES BUT REMAINS UNSPLIT AND IS STILL VERY CLEAN

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS  IT REALLY IS THAT GOOD

Your Purchase will be send inside a very protective square cornered professional package

The record will be removed from the sleeve and placed inside a new poly inner sleeve and separated from the cover

The sleeve and record will then have a new outer protective sleeve placed around it
