THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE GREY AND TAN LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE IMMACULATE AND UNWORN, AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. 

THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS TOTALLY UNRUBBED AND EVERY LETTER PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THERE IS JUST ONE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE HOLE SHOWING JUST WHY THIS LP IS IN THE SUPERB CONDITION THAT IT IS!!!

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS,AND IN DAYLIGHT IS IS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS. EVEN UNDER INTENSE SPOTLIGHTS THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A FEW TINY WISPY 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.

SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THIS SUPERB SOUND WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO MORE THAN THE ODD SPECK OF AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES. AND ONE OR TWO OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES

I HEARD JUST A FEW LIGHT TICS DURING THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO EX+ VERY CLOSE TO NEAR MINT  

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AS IT'S YOUR OPINION THAT COUNTS

THE SLEEVE

 

NON LAMINATED AND DELICATE E.J.DAY SINGLE SLEEVE . 

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND THE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT, WITH JUST A LIGHT SHADOW OF HANDLING AND NATURAL WEAR TO THE EDGES

THERE IS NO RING WEAR WHATSOEVER ON ANY PART OF THE SLEEVE,AND NO RECORD SHAPE EITHER.

THE CORNER TIPS HAVE THE TINIEST BIT OF WEAR

THERE ARE SIX MICROSCOPIC PRESSURE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE

NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE AND ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

NOT PERFECT BUT WAY BETTER THAN MOST

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE VERY SLIGHTLY RUBBED IN A FEW PLACES AND A LITTLE DOT ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIP ENDS

THE  SPINE IS 100% FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. AGAIN SHOWS A LITTLE AGEING AND HANDLING, BUT THE TEXT IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS SHARP WITH JUST A TINY BIT OF FEATHERING

THE REAR SURFACE IS UNRUBBED, HAS JUST A FEW EDGE PRESSURE LINES AND A COUPLE OF CORNER CREASE LINES

THE POLY LINED LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS IN FLAT, UNCREASED AND UNSPLIT CONDITION. HAS THE CORRECT DATE PRINTED IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER (1070) THE EDGES HAVE AGED

 I AM HAPPY TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX+
