CONDITION
Disc
Labels: VERY GOOD +
A respectable looking pair with some discolouration around the centre holes and some tarnishing to the gold rims
Visual: VERY GOOD +
Both playing surfaces are clean & retain a deep-gloss finish with just one or two harmless hairlines each side and a light circular light mark on the final track on side 2 which does not affect sound or play.
Sound Quality: VERY GOOD +
This copy has been played many times but is without any major deterioration to the sound quality. Some light background is audible during the quieter passages but there are no clicks, pops, jump or any other major audible faults.
Cover: GOOD
A fully intact example with moderate age/storagewear but no major faults. There is some edge and corner wear commensurate with its age and fragility and there is some flaking to the laminate on the seams. The rear panel is discoloured but free from any writing or missing paper. There is a little wear to the spine text and no original inner-sleeve is present.
