THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BROWNLABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL CLEAR AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS ONE SPIDER LINE BY THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS. EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER SPOTLIGHTS THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO SEE.
A MINT EXAMPLE
THE TEST PLAY
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
THIS DISC PLAYS TO NEAR PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE TOTALLY SILENT
NO POPS OR TICS ANYWHERE
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS AUDIO MINT
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED MATTE SINGLE SLEEVE FROM MCNEILL PRESS
THE FRONT SURFACE IS JUST SUPERB. FLAT AND CLEAN AND THE COLOURED SURFACE HAS LOST NONE OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR APART FROM A TINY SLIVER OF RING WEAR JUST UNDER THE TOP EDGE
NO CREASES WHATSOEVER
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE FAIRLY SQUARE WITH A TINY DOT OF RUB ON THE CORNER TIPS
THERE ARE THREE SMALL PRESSURE LINES AT THE TOP OF THE SPINE. ONE ON THE TOP EDGE, AND ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGE HAS ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER AND JUST A DOT OF RUB TO THE RIGHT TIP END
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS SOME FLECKS OF UNDERCARD VISIBLE
THE SPINE HAS ONE VERY LIGHT FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION. PRISTINE COLOUR AND TYPEFACE. UNBLEMISHED END TIPS.
THE OPENING EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY RAZOR SHARP AND SHOWS WHY THIS LP HAS REMAINED IN THE BARELY PLAYED STATE THAT IT IS
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME LOVELY CONDITION AS THE FRONT
THE LYRIC INSERT SHEET HAS NO TEARS OR CREASE LINES
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX++
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
