VINYL EX. Beautiful unmarked mirror like playing surfaces - even under halogen light the they are unmarked with just a couple of really ultra light hairlines on the run outs (which look mint in normal light). Plays near MINT - very near silent intros/between tracks - no pops or clicks and no trackwear/distortion. THIS IS A FANTASTIC FIRST PRESSING. Matrix numbers:- XEX605-2 , XEX606-1. 5 GT 3RD.
LABELS EX. No spindle marks - see photos.
SLEEVE EX. Original "PATENTS PENDING" - clean and solid with a couple of creases on the front - Polysleeve is also included.
INNER SLEEVE EX. Original plain with "PATENTS APPLIED FOR" and "MADE IN ENGLAND" - no cuts splits or tears.
[My gradings are based on the "RECORD COLLECTOR'S" grading system. The following text is from the "RECORD COLLECTOR" price guide:-
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, with out any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding,scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.]
