    THE RECORD

     

    THE LABELS

    THE  PICTURE LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. A SOLID BLACK BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE WHITE TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

    THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE  ARE TWO TINY VISIBLE  SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE. 

    THE VINYL

    THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THE VINYL STILL LOOKS PRISTINE. ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE DISC


    THE TEST PLAY


     MAGNIFICENT AUDIO FROM START TO FINISH - THE BEST I HAVE HEARD

    THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.

    THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE

    NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE, AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT

    NO TICS OR POPS

    I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT 

     

    THE SLEEVE

     

    NON LAMINATED TEXTURED SINGLE SLEEVE

    THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES.

    ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR IS THERE AND TOTALLY UNRUBBED. A MAGNIFICENT EXAMPLE THE MAROON COLOUR HAS REMAINED FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. NO FADING TO THE COLOURS EITHER

    THERE ARE ZERO PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO  THE SPINE  ,NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

    THERE IS NO RING WEAR AND NO RECORD SHAPE . THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE BOTTOM TIP ENDS

    THE TOP EDGE IS MINT WITH ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER AND THE CORNER TIPS REMAIN UNBLEMISHED

    THE BOTTOM EDGE IS THE ONLY AREA ON THE SLEEVE WITH A LITTLE SPORADING SHELF RUB. SOM WHITE FLECKING ALONG THE SURFACE

    THE SPINE IS IN FLAT AND UNSQUASHED CONDITION, AGAIN ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM . BOTH TIPS ARE MINT AND UNBLEMISHED. , THE EASILY RUBBED GOLD TYPEFACE IS IMMACULATE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

    THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

    THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT.

    THE  PICTURE / LYRIC INNER SLEEVE  IS ALSO IN  PRISTINE CONDITION. NO CREASES AND NO SPLITS, AND UNUSUALLY THERE IS NO FOXING TO EITHER SIDE

    I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS  SLEEVE  MINT  MINUS
