THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE 6 PICTURE LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK ON ANY SIDE, AND NO COLOUR LOSS. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE SPINDLE HOLES ARE UNWORN. . THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLES
THE VINYL
EXAMINING EACH DISC IN TURN THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT. THEY GLEAM LIKE BRAND NEW VINYLS. EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO A MAGNIFYING LED HALO FIVE OF THE SIDE ARE ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. SIDE FIVE HAS A TINY SURFACE HANDLING LINE ABOUT A HALF INCH IN FROM THE EDGE. I HAVE RECORDED THIS SIDE TO ENSURE IT IS NON SOUNDING
THE TEST PLAY
I HAVE PLAYED AND RECORDED THE FIRST ALBUM AND THE FIRST TRACK ON SIDE FIVE WHERE I SAW THAT LTTLE MARK (I SUSPECT THIS WAS CAUSED BY AN ERRANT BRUSHING OF A FINGER NAIL WHEN PLACING THE VINYL INTO THE SLEEVE. THE MARK IS VERY LIGHT AND CERTAINLY NOT FEELABLE AND INFACT DOESN'T SOUND WHATSOEVER
THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE
NO CLICKS AT ALL AT ANY POINT DURING THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
A 54 YEAR OLD SET THAT PERFORMS LIKE IT WAS BRAND NEW
NO STATIC AT ALL
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
I CANNOT GIVE ANY OTHER GRADE THAN MINT FOR THE AUDIO
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF, DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT
THE SLEEVE
WELL A BOX, NOT A SLEEVE. HOW HARD IS THIS TO FIND IS COLLECTIBLE CONDITION? NEAR IMPOSSIBLE. FIRSTLY YOU HAVE MOST OF THESE BOXES WITH TORN CORNERS AND SECONDLY THE POROUS SURFACE IS USUALLY VERY BADLY SOILED.
THIS BOX IS IN SUBLIME CONDITION
YOU RARELY SEE THIS ALBUM IN SUCH MAGNIFICENT SHAPE
STARTING WITH THE FRONT SURFACE. THIS USUALLY COMES MOTTLED , GRUBBY, STAINED, HAS STICKER REMOVAL MARKS ON IT, AND GENERALLY LOOKS SHABBY. HERE WE HAVE A PRISTINE EXAMPLE.
THE GREY SURFACE IS IN SUPREME CONDITION. NOT ONE FINGERMARK, NOT ONE STAIN.
IT'S PERFECT WITH THE VARIOUS SHADES OF GREY AND BLACK RICH AND VIBRANT. NO NICKS TO THE BORDERS OF THE PASTE ON IMAGE
ALL FOUR CORNERS ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE,MOST IMPORTANTLY THEY ARE NOT SPLIT. THERE IS NOT ONE SCUFF TO ANY OF THEM THEY ARE ALL JET BLACK
THE SPINES AND TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE ALSO UNMARKED.THE EDGES ARE FINISHED IN A JET BLACK MATT BUT TEXTURED FINISH WHICH IS OFTEN FOUND SHELFWORN, BUT HERE THE BLACK IS STILL PERFECTLY BLACK AND UNRUBBED. THE LEFT SPINE WITH THE GOLD TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, WITH THE GOLD LEAF JUST IMMACULATE AND EVERY LETTER UNRUBBED.
THE BASE OF THE BOX IS ALSO IN MINT CONDITION, AND THIS IS USUALLY SCRATCHED AND RUBBED, BUT NOT ON THIS SET. IT IS WITHOUT DOUBT IN THE BEST CONDITION I HAVE EVER SEEN ONE OF THESE
AND IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS BOX HAS BEEN PROTECTED ALMOST FROM NEW IN A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE, TO BE IN THIS INCREDIBLE CONDITION
OPENING THE BOX AND LOOKING INSIDE AT THE PANELS UNDER THE LID, AGAIN THE STORY IS THE SAME. THE ORANGE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND THERE HAS BEEN NO BLEMISH TO ANY PART OF IT. ALL THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECT. THE WEBBING THAT MAKES THE SPINE HINGE IS PERFECT, AND ALL OF THE INTERNAL CORNERS ARE PRISTINE
INSIDE THE BOX THE THREE ALBUMS ORIGINALLY CAME HOUSED INSIDE THREE VERY VULNERABLE ROUGH TEXTURED INNER SLEEVES THAT IN MOST CASES HAVE SPLIT ALONG THE SEAMS. ON THIS COPY HOWEVER ALL THREE INNERS ARE TOTALLY UNCREASED, THERE IS ONE SMALL BOTTOM EDGE SPLIT ON THE GREY ONE
THE HUGE POSTER WHICH IS OFTEN MISSING FROM THIS SET IS IN MINT CONDITION. EVERY FOLD LINE IS RAZOR SHARP AND IT IS OBVIOUS WHEN LOOKING AT IT, THAT IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLACED ON ANY WALL, WELL NEVER BEEN OUT OF THE BOX EITHER.
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS BOX MINT MINUS WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT
A MUSEUM GRADE VINYL AND BOX!!!!!
