OUTSTANDING COPY
- CATALOGUE:HANSA/ATLANTIC K50610
- MATRIX:BONEY M A-2 / B-2
- STRAWBERRY ETCHED INTO DEAD WAX I HAVE ACQUIRED A COLLECTION OF STUNNING VINYLS THAT BELONGED TO SOMEONE WHO LOOKED AFTER THEM INCREDIBLY WELL, WHERE THEY WERE PLACED INTO PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVES FROM NEW, AND ONLY PLAYED ON A BANG & OLUFSEN HI FI
THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE GREENA ND ORANGE LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK OR STAIN ON THEM. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. I AM STRUGGLING TO SEE ANY MORE THAN ONE TINY SPIDER LINE WHATSOEVER AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE DISC GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR AND HAS CLEARLY LOST NONE OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE. IT IS UNMARKED AND FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES.
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.
THIS STEREO REPRODUCTION IS TRULY MAGNIFICENT , BOTH LOUD AND CRISP, IT PERFORMS WITHOUT A JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO CLICKS.
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY A COUPLE OF TINY STATIC SPECKS IN ONE OR TWO OF THE LINKING GROOVES
NO DUST POPS JUST A FEW RANDOM TINY STATIC TICS
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS VINYL NEAR MINT !!!
PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
AMAZING GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NO MARKS, STAINS, CREASES, CREASE LINES, DENTS, DINGS OR RUBBING.
THE SURFACE IS FREE FROM ANY IMPERFECTIONS WHATSOEVER
THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES AREVIRTUALLY FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR . AGAIN THIS IS AN AREA WHERE MOST COPIES ARE BADLY RUBBED. THIS ONE HAS ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER WITH JUST A LITTLE RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNERS, AND A COUPLE OF WHITE SPECKS ON THE BOTTOM EDGE
THE SPINE IS UNSQUASHED 'FLAT SHAPE' AGAIN NORMALLY FOUND CRUSHED. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE PERFECT
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND NOT EVEN ONE THUMB NAIL NICK ALONG THE EDGE
THE REAR SURFACE IS IMMACULATE LIKE THE FRONT
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PERFECT INNER PANELS WHICH IN TURN OPEN OUT TO FORM A FOUR PANEL PAICTURE. THIS TOO IS TOTALLY MINT!!
THE CARD / LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT AND UNSPLIT, NO CREASES, AND NO MARKS OR STAINS, JUST PERFECT IN FACT
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT
AN ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDING COPY OF THIS GREAT ALBUM, AND WILL NEVER NEED UPGRADING
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
