THE SLEEVE EX+
Correct UK LOW GLOSS FINISH SLEEVE first issued earliest sleeve.
This is a super sleeve and has no wear or whitening to report , we do not auction any sleeves that we deem to have 'wear' so rest assured you are looking at a sleeve of top condition..
The edges are all super clean with no traces of rub, at all , and all colours and inks remain in outstanding condition. This sleeve which is so hard to preserve without wear has clearly been stored away for decades!
A few light spider lines over the edges. Some very light ring press-typical of this flimsy sleeve, but nothing to worry about and nothing that spoils the look of the sleeve.
No powdery white ringwear or even ring press of any note, and all edges are super crisp. No rub or corner tip rub to report..a couple of tiny little corner dinks and a couple of discolour spots on the open edge.
The open edge remains in super sharp condition with not a hint of handling, just the little dink at the bottom and some very light tip scuff.
The spine edge is totally unsquashed- titles are perfectly legible.
WE CLARIFY BY SAYING, THIS SLEEVE IS SUPERB QUALITY. and RARE TO SEE AT ALL!
THE INNER SLEEVE MINT-
Original pat printed poly lined inner sleeve
