THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE CAPITOL LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE MAUVE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY RUNS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS BOLD AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE SPINDLE HOLES ARE UNWORN, AND THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE ON ONE SIDE OF DISC TWO

THE VINYL

THE VINYLS HAVE RETAINED ALL OF THEIR ORIGINAL SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOK TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE IS JUST NOTHING TO SEE WHATSOEVER. A COUPLE OF THE FINEST WISPY HAIRLINES PERHAPS, BUT THAT'S ALL. ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE!!!!!!!!

THE VINYL AS YOU WILL SEE HAD A BROWN SPLASH ON EACH OF THE SIDES MAKING IT QUITE UNIQUE FROM THE PLAIN WHITE COPIES THAT ARE THE NORM. SIDES ONE AND TWO HAVE VERY PRONOUNCED 'V' SHAPES, SIDE THREE JUST A LITTLE STREAK, AND SIDE FOUR A MUCH LONGER AND DEEPER SINGLE STREAK

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.

SO AS MENTIONED ABOVE I HAVE JUST RECORDED THE FIRST SIDE TO DEMONSTRATE THE AMAZING QUALITY

THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

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. VERY UNUSUAL FOR COLOURED VINYL TO SOUND THIS AMAZING, A TRUE TESTAMENT TO THE MASTERING BY CAPITOL

THE RECORDED SIDE PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND NOT ONE JOT OF VINYL NOISE. ALSO WITHOUT ANY TICS OR POPS OR STATIC ETC, AND IT IS JUST MAGNIFICENT

I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I HEARD NO  DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

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

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

THE SLEEVE

A  WHITE SLEEVE , IN REALLY NICE CONDITION. THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND STILL MOSTLY WHITE THERE IS SOME NATURAL AGEING AROUND THE EDGES

THERE ARE NO CREASES OR BENDS, AND JUST A SMALL DING TO THE TOP LEFT CORNER TIP

THERE IS JUST ONE LITTLE PRESSURE LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. ONE ALONG EITHER THE TOP EDGE, AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER.

THE BEATLES LOGO IS UNRUBBED AND VERY PRONOUNCED

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE VERY CLEAN. THE  WHITE SURFACE FULLY RUNNING FROM TIP TO TIP. WITH JUST A LITTLE RUB TO THE CORNER TIP ENDS

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, THE TYPEFACE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE WHITE SURFACE HAS SOME LITTLE SPECKS OF RUB ALONG THE SURFACE AND LEADING EDGES

THE OPENING EDGES ARE RAZOR 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 IN THE SAME CONDITION AS THE FRONT

ALSO WORTH POINTING OUT THAT THIS SLEEVE HISTORICALLY HAS RING WEAR, BUT ON THIS SLEEVE THERE IS JUST THE FAINT OUTLINE OF RECORD SHAPE ON THE REAR

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS THE TWO PRISTINE INNER PANELS, WITH JUST A SHADOW OF AGEING TO THE EDGES

ONE OF THE DIE CUT INNER SLEEVES HAS A SMALL TEAR ON ON SIDE FROM THE HOLE DOWNWARDS

THE LARGE POSTER AND 4 PHOTO'S ARE IN MINT CONDITION. LOOKS LIKE THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE UNTIL TODAY

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX+

A TRULY MAGNIFICENT COLLECTIBLE WHITE ALBUM THAT WOULD BE HARD TO UPGRADE

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