THE LABELS

THE YELLOW STONES LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL CLEAR AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE NO  SPIDER LINES ON ANY SIDE, AND THAT IS EVEN USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS

THE VINYL

THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND LOOKS SUPERB. THIS IS A STAGGERING VINYL AND IT IS VERY CLEAR AS SOON AS YOU HOLD IT THAT IT JUST HASN'T BEEN HANDLED OR PLAYED. IT IS 35 YEARS OLD AND AMAZING TO THINK THAT A POPULAR ALBUM SUCH AS THIS JUST HAS SAT AROUND UNPLAYED FOR ALL THESE YEARS.

EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING MORE THAN A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES, WHICH CAN ONLY HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY SLEEVE REMOVAL. THERE ARE SOME FLECKS OF WHAT CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS DULL SPOTS AND THESE ARE TOTALLY NON SOUNDING AND ONLY VISIBLE UNDER SPOTLIGHT, AND CAN ONLY HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY THE 35 YEAR WAIT INSIDE THE SLEEVE. A SUPERB GLEAMING MINT EXAMPLE

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 DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE LP BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE FIRST THING TO SAY ABOUT THIS VINYL IS THAT THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS. EACH NOTE IS HEARD VERY CLEARLY AND THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ALL THROUGHOUT ANY PART OF THE PLAY THROUGH. NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE

THE DISCS PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH. PERHAPS A SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF SPOTS, AND I DON'T EVEN BELIEVE I HEARD MORE THAN A FEW TINY TINY DUST POPS EITHER. IT IS WITHOUT A DOUBT A PERFECT SET, AND A FINAL UPGRADE FOR SURE

SO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO SOUNDBITES AND I AM CERTAIN YOU WILL AGREE, BUT YOU BE THE JUDGE

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS DISC MINT !!!!

IT REALLY IS THAT MAGNIFICENT

THE SLEEVE

MAGNIFICENT ORIGINAL ROBOR UNLAMINATED GATEFOLD WHICH HAS BEEN HOUSED UNMOLESTED INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER COVER FROM NEW

THE FRONT SURFACE IS JUST SUPERB. FLAT AND CLEAN AND THE UNLAMINATED SURFACE HAS LOST NONE OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR WHICH IS STILL RICH AND VIBRANT.

THERE ARE NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE ON THE SURFACE , AND INCREDIBLY NOT ONE LINE NEAR THE SPINE

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE PRISTINE, WITH JUST ONE PIN PRICK OF WHITE SHOWING THROUGH THE PINK IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER

THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE IMMACULATE AND UNWORN

THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT AND AGAIN FREE FROM ANY COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND LEGIBLE. NO SQUASHING WHATSOEVER

THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN THE SAME MAGNIFICENT CONDITION AS THE FRONT.

JUST AN IMMACULATE SLEEVE

THE OPENING EDGES ARE BOTH RAZOR SHARP AND DON'T EVEN HAVE THUMB NAIL NICKS ALONG THEM, AND THIS IS BECAUSE THE VINYL HAS JUST SAT INSIDE THE SLEEVE

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO ABSOLUTELY MINT CONDITION INNER PANELS

THE TWO COLOURED INNER SLEEVES ARE ALSO IN THE SAME INCREDIBLE CONDITION AS THE REST OF THE SET. NO SPLITS TO THE SEAMS DESPITE THE VINYL LIVING IN THEM SINCE 1977. NO CREASES , NO RECORD SHAPE, AND CERTAINLY NO MARKS OR STAINS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS GREAT COVER MINT !!!!

THERE CAN BE NOTHING BETTER OUT THERE

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