THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE YELLOW LABELS ARE JUST MAGNIFICENT. THERE ARE NO MARKS, STAINS OR ANYTHING ELSE TO MAR THE SUPERB CONDITION THAT THEY ARE IN. THE COLOURS FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND UNRUBBED. THERE ARE JUST TWO SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE WHICH I ONLY SPOTTED WHEN I PUT THE ALBUM UP TO A SPOT BULB. CLEARLY THIS ALBUM HAS ONLY EVER HAD VERY LIMITED PLAY.

THE VINYL

SUPERB ALBUM WHICH HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND GLOSS. THERE ARE NO MARKS OR BLEMISHES ON EITHER SIDE OF THIS BRILLIANT DISC,AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS  AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES, A COUPLE OF TINY LITTLE HANDLING LINES AND SOME SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL LINES, ALL INVISIBLE IN DAYLIGHT

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 LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID, AND THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED 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 LP SOUNDS.

THE CLARITY OF THIS FIRST PRESS IS JUST BRILLIANT. AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD AS WAS INTENDED. THE REPRODUCTION IS BOTH LOUD AND CLEAR, AND THE LP PERFORMS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER.

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS AND NO STATIC EITHER

THE ODD SECOND OF VERY LIGHT VINYL NOISE HEARD ONLY DURING A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES, AND NO MORE THAN 2-3 OF THE TINIEST DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL  MINT MINUS

PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A LONG LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

THE FIRST PRESS GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE EMBOSSED TYRE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE. THERE IS NOT ONE SPECK OF RUBBING OR RING WEAR, OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE TO SPOIL THE APPEARANCE.

CLEARLY THE LP HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE FROM NEW, AS THERE IS NOT ONE CREASE LINES OR BEND AT ALL IN THE SURFACE. EVEN THE TINY LINES THAT FROM NEAR THE SPINE ARE JUST ONE IN  NUMBER. THE ONLY OTHER LINE IS ONE VERY TINY ONE ACROSS THE TOP LEFT CORNER TIP

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% UNWORN AND HAVE BEEN FULLY PROTECTED  BY THE  PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE FROM NEW.

THE SPINE IS SUPERB. FLAT AND APART FROM THE TINIEST SEMI FINGER TO THUMB SQUASH NEAR THE TOP . ALL OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THERE IS NO RUBBING TO THE BLACK SURFACE, APART FROM THE VERY TOP TIP END

THE OPENING EDGE IS JUST RAZOR SHARP AND AGAIN SHOWS JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN OUTSIDE OF THE COVER.

THE REAR SURFACE IS AGAIN IN SUBLIME CONDITION. THE DELICATE BLACK AREAS ARE JUST PRISTINE AND AS PER THE FRONT NO CREASES OR MARKS, AND NO LINES NEAR THE SPINE

THE LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS IN NEAR MINT, UNSPLIT, UNMARKED AND UNDAMAGED CONDITION

THIS SLEEVE EASILY GRADES  MINT MINUS

I AM CERTAIN THIS LP AND SLEEVE WILL NEVER NEED UPGRADING

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