THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE APPLE LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION.
THE DARK GREEN SIDE IS VERY RICH AND VIBRANT, AND HAS LOST NONE OF THE COLOUR AT ALL. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS BOLD AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE WHITE SIDE IS VERY WHITE AND HAS NO MARKS OR STAINS AT ALL ON EITHER SIDE.
THE SPINDLE HOLE IS UNWORN, THERE ARE JUST A FEW TINY SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE HOLE SHOWING THAT THIS LP HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND IS REALLY CLEAN.
IN DAYLIGHT THE DISC LOOKS FLAWLESS , AND EVEN UNDER SPOTLIGHTS THERE IS NOTHING ON THE VINYL OTHER THAN JUST A COUPLE OF TINY WISPY HAIRLINES
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, WITHOUT ANY TRACE OF DISTORTION CAUSED THROUGH GROOVE WEAR.
A STUNNING STEREO REPRODUCTION WITH NOTES BEING HEARD CRISPLY AND CLEANLY.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLING AND NO LOUD CLICKS AT ANY POINT.
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE . THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
I HEARD NO MORE THAN ONE OR TWO TINY AND BARELY AUDIBLE SPECKS OF STATIC THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH AND A COUPLE OF TOTALLY INSIGNIFICANY DUST TICS
THIS EASILY GRADES MINT MINUS FOR THE AUDIO
THE SLEEVE
FULLY LAMINATED SINGLE GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN.AND THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS.
THIS SLEEVE HISTORICALLY SUFFERS FROM SEVERE RING WEAR DUE TO THE FLIMSINESS OF THE CARD USED. THIS COPY IS FREE FROM ANY RING WEAR AND ONLY SHOWS A VERY LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE WHEN ANGLED INTO THE LIGHT
THERE ARE ZERO PRESSURE LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE OR ANYWHERE ELSE FOR THAT MATTER
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLY SQUARE AND UNRUBBED.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR, AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT FROM TIP TO TIP ON BOTH EDGES. THERE IS NO RUBBING
THE WAFER THIN SPINE IS IN TOP CONDITION. TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, ALL OF THE LAMINATE PERFECT AND UNBLEMISHED. THE ENDS ARE ALSO IMMACULATE WITH UNBLEMISHED TIPS, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL VERY SHARP .THIS SHOWS JUST HOW LITTLE THIS VINYL HAS BEEN OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE
THE THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS SUPERB AS THE FRONT, JUST TWO TINY LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE, NONE ON THE TOP EDGE , NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE BLACK DIE CUT INNER SLEEVE HAS NO SEAM SPLITS OR TEARS TO THE DIE CUT HOLE
