THE BLACK AND YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. WHEN EXAMINED CLOSELY UNDER A STRONG LIGHT THERE ARE JUST LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS VISIBLE ON EITHER SIDE. THE LABELS ARE PERFECT WITH STRONG, BOLD LETTERING AND STILL DISPLAY THEIR ORIGINAL DEEP BLACK COLOUR. THERE IS NO FADING OR RUBBING EVIDENT AND THEY LOOK IMMACULATE!
THE GLOSSY HEAVIER WEIGHT VINYL IS ALSO SUPERB, CLOSE EXAMINATION UNDER A STRONG LIGHT REVEALS VERY LIGHT WISPY MARKS AND THE ODD MARK PRESENT. THE VINYL LIES PERFECTLY FLAT AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DULLING OR OTHER IMPERFECTIONS TO THE PLAYING SURFACE.
AUDIO IS FLAWESS, PRISTINE AND IMMACULATE THROUGHOUT. DURING ONE CAREFUL PLAY BY MYSELF I DID NOT DETECT ANY DISTORTION AT ANY POINT, BOTH RUN IN/OUT GROOVES ARE SILENT AS ARE ALL TRACK GROOVES, EVEN THE QUIETER PARTS OF THE AUDIO ARE FREE FROM ANY INTERRUPTION
THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT EMITEX INNER IS PRESENT AND IS SUPERB WITH JUST LIGHT SIGNS OF AGE AND HANDLING AND THE INEVITABLE CREASES WHERE THE VINYL HAS SAT IN THE SLEEVE.
THE OUTER GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE "PATENTS PENDING" SLEEVE IS AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE. THERE ARE JUST MINIMAL LIGHT EDGE WRINKLES PRESENT AND TWO OR THREE THUMBNAILS . THE FRONT IS GLOSSY WITH BOLD COLOURING. THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL PERFECTLY STRAIGHT AND TRUE WITH A HINT OF WEAR EVIDENT AND THERE ARE THE INEVITABLE CORNER BUMPS PRESENT. THERE IS ALSO SOME LIGHT WEAR VISIBLE TO BOTTOM EDGE. THE REAR IS SUPERB AND IT ONLY DISPLAYS THE ODD SIGN OF AGE AND THERE IS NO RINGWEAR PRESENT, . ALL THREE FLIPBACKS LIE PERFECTLY FLAT WITH LIGHT CREASES. THE SPINE IS RIGIDT WITH ITS ORIGIANL FACTORY PINCHED ENDS INTACT AND JUST SOME LIGHT WEAR TO TOP END.....ALL WORDING IS PRISTINE.
THIS IS A VERY DESIRABLE EXAMPLE OF THIS RARE AND VERY COLLECTABLE STEREO VERSION.
