MAGNIFICENT MINT MINUS AUDIO
MINT SLEEVE
RARE GREEN CAPITOL LABEL (1969 ONLY)
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
ORIGINAL GREEN CAPITOL LABELS IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR AND SILVER LOGO'S ARE BOTH UNRUBBED . THE BLACK TEXT IS ALSO IN PERFECTLY LEGIBLE CONDITION, AND THE SPINDLE HOLE IS UNWORN. I CAN'T SEE ANY SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE WHATSOEVER
THE VINYL
REALLY REALLY GLOSSY LP THAT LOOKS BRAND NEW. THERE ARE NO MARKS TO BE SEEN ON THE SURFACE IN DAYLIGHT,AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A TINY LITTLE FACTORY PIMPLE IN THE LINKING GROOVE TO PENNY LANE ON SIDE TWO
THE TEST PLAY
INCREDIBLE STEREO REPRODUCTION
THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT A STEREO PRESSING OF THIS CLASSIC ALBUM IS NOTHING SHORT OF SUPERB!! PRESSED LOUDLY EACH NOTE IS HEARD EXACTLY THE WAY IT WAS INTENDED
THE ALBUM PLAYS WITH A CRYSTAL CLEAR AND CLEAN RECORDING THAT PLAYS WITHOUT CLICKS, AND ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER
NO VINYL NOISE AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE NEAR SILENT, WITH JUST THE ODD TINY SPECK OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND. THE SMALL BLISTER ON THE VINYL CAUSES THREE DULL LITTLE POPS IN THE LINKING GROOVE BEFORE PENNY LANE STARTS
NO DUST POPS OR TICS
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS INCREDIBLE VINYL PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT MINUS
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
HEAVY BOOK STYLE NON LAMINATED MATTE GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NO CREASES OR CREASELINES, AND NO BENDS ETC.
THE COLOURS ARE IMMACULTE. DEEP, RICH AND VIBRABNT SHOWING NO RUBBING OR FADING
NO RINGWEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE NO PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE. NONE ON THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE RIGHT EDGE, JUST A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE DENT S ON THE RIGHT EDGE
ALL FOUR CORNERS ARE 100% SHARP AND SQUARE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE TOTALLY FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER, WITH ALL OF THE COLOUR RUNNING FROM CORNER TIP TO CORNER TIP. ONLY THE FRONT RIGHT BOTTOM CORNER TIP HAS A DOT OF RUB
THE SPINE IS ABSOLUTELY MINT!! TOTALLY FLAT AND USQUASHED, AND ALL OF THE COLOUR IS PERFECT EVEN THE TIP ENDS ARE MINT AND UNRUBBED. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP . TWO MINUSCULE THUMB NAIL NICKS
THE REAR SURFACE IS AS BRILLIANT AS THE FRONT. THIS IS WHERE THE US SLEEVE USUALLY SUFFERS RING WEAR AND RUBBING, BUT THIS EXAMPLE HAS NONE WHATSOEVER
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO MINT INNER PANELS AND A PERFECT TIGHTLY FIXED OUTER PAGES OF THE BOOK. THE TOP OF THE INNER PAGES HAS STARTED TO COME AWAY FROM THE STAPLE. NOT COMPLETELY BUT ENOUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS STUNNING SLEEVE MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
