THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BLUE MERCURY LABELS ARE JUST MAGNIFICENT. DEEP RICH COLOURS THAT ARE FREE FROM ANY BLEMISHES. NO MARKS OR STAINS AND NO SIGNS OF HANDLING WHATSOEVER.
NO RUBBING TO THE TYPEFACE OR LOGO'S
THERE ARE 1-2 SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS VERY GLOSSY AND LOOKS LIKE NEW IN DAYLIGHT. UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO I SEE ONE DULL EMBEDDED NON SOUNDING STREAK, PLUS SOME EMBEDDED GREY FLECKS AND A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES
PLAYING THE RECORD
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH NEAR PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.
NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS
I HEARD A LITTLE LOW LEVEL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN A FEW OF THE LINKING GROOVES ONLY
NO DUST POPS , JUST A COUPLE OF THE TINIEST LITTLE TICS
HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO NEAR MINT
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
NO LAMINATED GLOSSY SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY VERY CLEAN AND IMPORTANTLY HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS.
NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE.
THERE ARE TWO MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE, TWO ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES EACH, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
NO FADING OF THE COLOUR ANYWHERE
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH A MINUSCULE DING TO THE BOTTOMRIGHT TIP END
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE THE COLOUR REMAIINGS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT ALL THE WAY FROM CORNER TIP TO CORNER TIP. NOT ONE SPECK OF RUBBING EVEN TO THE TIP ENDS.
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS NO WEAR TO EITHER TIP END
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILLSHARP, WITHA VERY TINY BIT OF FEATHERING
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN SIMILAR CONDITION TO THE FRONT. PLUS A LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD IMPRESSION
THE PICTURE INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM AND IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION. NO SPLITS, NO CREASES, NO WRINKLES
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
