THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE OLIVE GREEN LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ANYWHERE ON EITHER SIDE.
THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THE JET BLACK TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND THEREFORE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS JUST ONE NEAR INVISIBLE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND COULDN'T LOOK ANY BETTER.
ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE HAS BEEN RETAINED. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OR ANY SIGNS OF HANDLING ON THE DISC, AND IN DAYLIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS FLAWLESS.
EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION IT STILL LOOKS MINT
PLAYING THE RECORD
THE RECORD PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH
THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER
THERE IS THE BAREST OSS SPLIT SECOND OF STATIC HEARD ONLY VERY OCCASIONALLY, IN SOME OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND MOST SILENT PASSAGES
AND I DIDN'T HEAR ANY DUST POPS OR TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST SUPERB AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD TO PERFECTION
A HIGH GRADE COLLECTIBLE THAT PLAYS TO AN INCREDIBLE MINT MINUSSTANDARD.

THE FRONT SURFACE IS NEAR PRISTINE !!!!
THE COLOURS HAVE ALL BEEN RETAINED, AND ONLY THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP SHOWS A LITTLE RUBBING

THE TOP EDGE HAS PRISTINE COLOURS WITH ONLY A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE LEFT CORNER TIP
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS SOME SMALL PATCHY AREAS OF RUB
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE COLOUR IS RETAINED AND THE TIP ENDS UNRUBBED
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP ALL THE WAY ALONG AND SHOWS WHY THE LP HAS NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME LOVELY CONDITION AS THE FRONT.
THE PLAIN WHITE DIE CUT INNER IS IN FLAT AND 100% UNSPLIT. AGED AROUND THE EDGES
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
