THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE PINK SCROLL CHARISMA LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION, THE PINK BASE COLOUR IS UNRUBBED AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY CLEAR AND LEGIBLE, AND THERE ARE JUST 3-4 TINY SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE TO DEMONSTRATE HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN PLAYED
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION, NO LOSS OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE . IT GLEAMS LIKE A NEW RECORD
IN DAYLIGHT THE RECORD LOOKS PERFECT AND EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO IT ONLY SHOWS A FEW TINY WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS, AND THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE ON EITHER SIDE. THE CLARITY IS MAGNIFICENT
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND THE AUDIO COMES THROUGH CRISP AND CLEAN
TOTALLY SILENT IN THE LINKING GROOVES
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES CLICKS, TICS OR POPS AT ANY POINT
i HEARD NO MORE THAN A FEW SPECKS OF BARELY AUDIBLE LOW LEVEL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND DURING THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
THIS PLAYS SUPERBLY EASILY GRADES NEAR MINT
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
TEXTURED GATEFOLD SLEEVE PRINTED BY E.J DAY AND CO LTD
THE FRONT SURFACE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNMARKED. THE LIGHT PASTEL COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND UNRUBBED AND UNFADED..
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES
THERE ARE NO PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE
NONE ON THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGES ARE FULLY COLOURED WITH UNBLEMISHED CORNERS
THE BOTTOM EDGES ARE IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION
THE SPINE HAS NO FADED IN THE SLIGHTEST AND THE COLOUR FULLY MATCHES THE FRONT AND BACK. THE COLOUR HAS NO RUBBING AND BOTH ENDS ARE UNBLEMISHED
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS STUNNING AS THE FRONT.
WHAT IS ALSO WORTH NOTING IS THAT THERE IS NO RINGWEAR, AND NOT EVEN A TRACE OF RECORD SHAPE
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS THAT THE INNER PANELS ARE STILL WHITE, WOITHOUT ANY HANDLING OR ANY 0THER MARKS OR STAINS
THE LYRIC INSERT IS ALSO IN MINT CONDITION
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
