THE BLACK AND YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABELS ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO UNWANTED MARKS OR WRITING. LABELS HAVE JUST VERY LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS PRESENT. LABELS ARE CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY WRITING E.T.C..... LABELS DO NOT CARRY "RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED" OR "SOLD IN UK" TEXT.
THE GLOSSY HEAVY WEIGHT VINYL IS AGAIN EXCELLENT, IT DOES DISPLAY A VARIETY OF LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND THE HAIRLINE BUT IT MUST BE STRESSED THAT THESE ARE NOT SEVERE, AND NONE ARE FEELABLE..... THE VINYL LIES PERFECTLY FLAT WITH NO WARPING AND THERE IS NO NEEDLE LIFT WHEN PLAYED.
AUDIO IS SUPER. THERE MAYBE SOME CRACKLE TO RUN IN/OFF GROOVES AND DURING SOME QUIET PARTS AND THERE IS THE ODD VERY LIGHT CLICK IN PLACES BUT APART FROM THAT THE SOUND IS CLEAR AND CRISP AND NONE OF THIS DETERS FROM LISTENING ENJOYMENT.. THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY SKIPS OR JUMPS.
THE ORIGINAL HEAVYWEIGHT EMITEX INNER IS SUPERB WITH JUST VERY LIGHT SIGNS OF HANDLING.... IT IS STILL QUITE CRISP. THE INNER IS FREE FROM ANY SPLITS E.T.C AND DISPLAYSJUST A HINT OF BROWNING.
THE OUTER "E.J DAY" IS SUPERB. IT DOES DISPLAY SOME CORNER BUMPS/WEAR BUT VERY VERY LITTLE CREASING, THE REAR HAS SOME LIGHT HANDLING MARKS AND THERE IS A HINT OF WEAR TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM SEAMS. THE SLEEVE IS INTACT AND FREE FROM WRITING E.T.C. THE SPINE IN STILL RIGID WITH NO WEAR..... A STUNNING EXAMPLE OF THIS SLEEVE.
OVERALL STILL A VERY DESIRABLE EXAMPLE OF THIS VERY RARE UK 3RD MONO PRESSING. THESE COPIES ARE NOW BECOMING INCREASINGLY HARDER TO FIND AND SOME CONSIDER THEM RARER THAN THE BLACK AND GOLD MONO.
