THE RECORD

THE LABELS

THE APPLE LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE  GREEN SIDES ARE VERY RICH AND VIBRANT, AND HAVE LOST NONE OF THE COLOUR AT ALL. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS BOLD AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE WHITE SIDES ARE VERY WHITE AND HAVE NO MARKS OR STAINS AT ALL ON EITHER SIDE. THE SPINDLE HOLES ARE UNWORN, AND THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLES

THE VINYL

THE VINYLS HAVE RETAINED ALL OF THEIR ORIGINAL SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOK TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THE DISCS STILL LOOK MINT

THE TEST PLAY

ONE OF THE FRUSTRATIONS WITH THIS ALBUM IS THAT IT IS OFTEN FOUND TO LOOK GOOD, BUT AS SOON AS THE STYLUS HITS THE VINYL A DISTORTION TO THE RECORDED SOUND IS HEARD USUALLY THROUGH JUST ONE SPEAKER. I HAVE LOST COUNT OF THE TIMES I HAVE FOUND WHAT I THOUGHT TO BE A GREAT SET ONLY TO BE LET DOWN WHEN PLAYING IT.

WHAT WE HAVE HERE IS A TOTALLY DISTORTION FREE PAIR OF VINYLS. NOT ONE JOT OF GROOVE WEAR ANYWHERE AT ALL, AND THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS THEREFORE CRISP AND CLEAR AND PERFORMS LIKE A TRUE FIRST PRESS

BUT THIS IS NO MORE THAN I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED FROM A ONCE PLAYED DISC, BUT YOU CAN NEVER SAY NEVER!!

THIS FANTASTIC SET OF DISCS PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND NOT ONE JOT OF VINYL NOISE. 
SILENT LINKING GROOVES THROUGHOUT
ALL I HEARD WERE TWO TINY LITTLE TICS JUST AS SIDE TWO STARTS

A SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION MAKES THIS SET ONE OF THE BEST COPIESOF THE WHITE ALBUM I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE TO OFFER FOR AUCTION

EVEN THE DELICATE ' JULIA' IS FREE FROM ANY UNWANTED NOISE

AN ABSOLUTE PLEASURE TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS AUDIO  AS  MINT

DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

A GLEAMING  WHITE SLEEVE , IN REALLY NICE CONDITION. THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND UNLIKE MOST COPIES HAS MAINTAINED MOST OF IT'S WHITENESS  . ONLY A LITTLE UNDER LAMINATE AGEING AT THE EDGES

THERE ARE NO CREASES OR BENDS, AND NO LOSS OF THE LAMINATE AT ANY POINT

THERE ARE FOUR SMALL PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG EITHER THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER

THE EMBOSSED BEATLES LOGO IS UNRUBBED AND VERY PRONOUNCED

NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE AND THE CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH JUST A TINY SPECK OF RUB ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE. THE GLOSSY WHITE SURFACE FULLY RUNNING FROM TIP TO TIP. THE TOM RIGHT FRONT CORNER TIP IS THE ONLY ONE WITH A DOT OF RUB

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE WHITE SURFACE HAS THREE OF THE FRONT PRESSURE LINES RUNNING OVER THE SPINE

THE OPENING EDGES ARE VERY SHARP , AND IT'S CLEAR THAT THE LP'S JUST HAVEN'T BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE MORE  THAN ONCE OR TWICE.

THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS GLEAMING AND MARK FREE AS THE FRONT

ALSO WORTH POINTING OUT THAT THIS SLEEVE HISTORICALLY HAS RING WEAR, BUT ON THIS SLEEVE THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NONE WHATSOEVER

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS THE TWO VERY GLOSSY INNER PANELS. LIGHT UNDER LAMINATE EDGE AGE

THE TWO INNER SLEEVES ARE THE CORRECT WHITE EMI 'CARE OF YOUR RECORDS' INNERS, AND ARE 100% UNSPLIT AND UNCREASED, JUST LIGHT EDGE AGEING

THE ORIGINAL GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE POSTER IS ALSO INCLUDED AND IS IN MINT CONDITION. THERE ARE NO SEAM SPLITS, AND ITS STAIN FREE,AND IT HAS VERY SHARP CREASE LINES. IT LOOKS TO HAVE NEVER BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE OR CERTAINLY NEVER OPENED IN FULL FOR ANY LENGTH OF TIME

THE 4 PHOTOS ARE ALSO INCLUDED AND ARE ALSO IN MINT CONDITION.

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX++

IT IS THAT GOOD

A TRULY MAGNIFICENT COLLECTIBLE WHITE ALBUM 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
