THE RECORD
FIRSTLY THE LABELS ARE THE RARE GREEN ORIGINAL WB LABELS AND IN IMMACULATE CONDITION. NO SPINDLE HOLE WEAR AND ONLY A COUPLE OF REALLY LIGHT SPIDER LINES. THE LP JUST HAS NOT HAD THAT MUCH PLAY.
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND LOOKS SUPERB. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION I AM ABLE TO MAKE OUT A COUPLE OF REALLY LIGHT AND WISPY HAIRLINES, BUT AGAIN THIS JUST CONFIRMS THAT THE LP HAS NOT HAD ANY REAL PLAY TIME.
GENTLY LOWERING THE STYLUS ONTO SIDE ONE
THE RUN IN GROOVE PRODUCES SILENCE!!!
THE SILENT RUN IN SUGGESTS GREAT THINGS AHEAD. AS THE OPENING TRACK STARTS I AM LISTENING INTENTLY FOR ANY SIGNS OF DISTORTION CAUSED BY A HEAVY OR WORN STYLUS BEING USED ON THE ALBUM, WHICH IN TURN WOULD HAVE CAUSED GROVE WEAR, WHICH MEANS THE STYLUS WOULD MOVE ABOUT IN THE GROOVE, AND CAUSE THE AFORESAID DISTORTION. I AM PLEASED TO SAY THAT THERE IS NO DISTORTION WHATSOEVER. I WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY SURPRISED IF THERE HAD BEEN JUDGING BY THE INFORMATION I HAVE ALREADY GIVEN ON THE LABEL, AND VINYL.
.
EACH OF THE LINKING GROOVES HAVE THE SAME SILENCE BETWEEN THE TRACKS, AND EACH OF THE TRACKS PERFORM MAGNIFICENTLY. AN ABSOLUTE PLEASURE TO LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM SOUNDING EXACTLY LIKE IT DID THE DAY IT WAS RELEASED.
NO POPS, CRACKLES OR ANY BACKGROUND WHATSOEVER, APART FROM THE VERY ODD BIT OF STATIC OR LIGHT POP. A TRULY STUNNING EXAMPLE AND FULLY JUSTIFIES A NEAR MINT GRADE
THE SLEEVE
THE SCHOOL DESK SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB NEAR MINT CONDITION. FIRSTLY THE FRONT SURFACE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NO CREASES WHATSOEVER. FLIPPING THE SLEEVE OVER REVEALS THE BACK SECTION WHERE MANY HAD BEEN DAMAGED THROUGH PRESSING OUT THE DESK "LEGS". THIS ONE HAS BEEN OPENED ONCE TO SEE WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE AND THEN REFOLDED, . THE LEGS ARE IN EXCEPTIONAL UNDAMAGED CONDITION.
OPENING THE DESK LID REVEALS THE RECORD INSIDE THE ORIGINAL PLASTIC BAG INNER WHICH IS IN ORIGINAL CONDITION, NO SPLITS ETC. THE WHITE PANTIES SIT AROUND THE RECORD AND OVER THE PLASTIC BAG AND THEY ARE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. NO TEARS OR FRAYED AREAS.
A GREAT LOOKING SLEEVE THAT FULLY WARRANTS AN NM GRADE
THIS IS A REALLY EXCEPTIONAL COLLECTIBLE ITEM, AND WOULD GRACE ANY COLLECTION
