THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE PALE BLUE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. A SOLID BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE IS JUST ONE TINY SPIDER LINE AROUND THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS JUST NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A COUPLE OF VERY LIGHT WISPY HAIRLINES

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTABLE 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. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH SUPERBLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.

THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.

THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE

THE VINYL DOES HAVE THE OCCASIONAL SPECK OF LOW LEVEL BACKGROUND HEARD IN SOME SILENT PASSAGES. THIS IS DUE ENTIRELY TO THE PRESS AND NOTHING TO DO WITH USAGE

I HEARD JUST A FEW TINY STATIC TICS DURING THE WHOLE PLAY

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAY THROUGH AS NEAR MINT

PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

NON LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES.ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR IS THERE AND THERE IS NO RUBBING OR COLOUR LOSS, OTHER THAN A LIGHT SHADOW OF GREYING ON THE BLACK BORDER

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE

THERE ARE ZERO PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE, NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE

THE TOP EDGES ARE PRISTINE WITH ALL OF THE COLOURED SURFACE FULLY RUNNING FROM TIP TO TIP. THE CORNER TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED

THE BOTTOM EDGES ARE SIMILAR ALTHOUGH THERE IS SOME RUBBING TO THE REAR RIGHT CORNER

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. PRISTINE COLOURS, AND THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS AHVE A TINY SPECK OF RUB AND THERE IS ONE WHITE SPOT ON THE TYPEFACE

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT

THE PLAIN WHITE DIE CUT INNER SLEEVE IS IN TOP CONDITION NO SEAM SPLITS AND NO CREASES.

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS  SLEEVE  NEAR MINT

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
