A FINAL UPGRADE
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE RED AND BLACK LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE COLOURS ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED. A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLES REVEALS JUST ONE SMALL SPIDER LINE
THE VINYL
THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND COULDN'T LOOK ANY BETTER. ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE HAS BEEN RETAINED.THE DISC LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT.
THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OR ANY SIGNS OF HANDLING ON THE DISC, AND EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE
A MINT RECORD
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY O NBOTH IDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS VINYL SOUNDS
THE VINYL PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ANY POINT
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS
NO VINYL NOISE ANYWHERE, AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
NO TICS OR POPS
THIS LP IS EASY TO GRADE MINT
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED GLOSSY SINGLE SLEEVE
THIS SLEEVE IS IN ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT CONDITION
THE FRONT SURFACE IS SUPERBLY CLEAN THERE IS NO LOSS OF COLOUR TO THE SURFACE WHATSOEVER. IT IS QUITE INCREDIBLE TO SEE ONE IN THIS GLORIOUS CONDITION.
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE AND SHOW NO RUBBING OTHER THAN A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE BOTTOM LEFT TIP
THERE IS NO RING WEAR EITHER NOR IS THERE ANY SIGN OF RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE TWO MICROSCOPIC PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGE HAS A VERY LIGHT SCUFF IN THE MIDDLE AND A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIP.
THE BOTTOM EDGE JUST A DOT OF RUB ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIP END
IT'S CLEAR IS THAT THIS SLEEVE HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER
THE SPINE IS 100% FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. NOT EVEN A FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION. ONE PIN PRICK OF WHITE IN THE BROWN SURFACE AND A SPECK OF RUB ON THE BOTTOM TIP END
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS PERFECT. NO COLOUR LOSS AND NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THE LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS IN UNSPLIT, UNCREASED CONDITION
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS MAGNIFICENT SLEEVE MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
