THE SLEEVE

THE SUPERB FRONT LAMINATED SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE LAMINATED FRONT HAS SOME LIGHT WEAR AND A FEW TINY WRINKLES. THERE IS SOME DISCOLOURATION, STAINING AND AN INK STAMP TO THE REAR. THERE IS A CREASE TO ONE CORNER. 

THE VINYL

VISUALLY THE HEAVY, GLOSSY BLACK VINYL APPEARS TO BE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT I CAN ONLY SEE A FEW VERY LIGHT MARKS. I HAVE FULLY PLAYED GRADED THIS SUPERB RECORD AND CAN CONFIDENTLY SAY THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS GENERALLY EXCELLENT THROUGHOUT. I DID DETECT SOME MINOR INTERFERENCE, NOTABLY EARLY DURING BOTH SIDES AND ONE SOUNDING POP DURING SIDE TWO. THERE ARE ALSO A COUPLE OF TINY CLICKS RIGHT AT THE END OF SIDE TWO.

THE LABELS

THE STUNNING BLUE & GOLD COLUMBIA LABELS, WITH "MAGIC NOTES" LOGOS, ARE BOTH IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. THERE ARE NO SPINDLE MARKS.

GOOD (G) THE RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED SO MUCH THAT THE SOUND QUALITY HAS NOTICEABLY DETERIORATED, PERHAPS WITH SOME DISTORTION AND MILD SCRATCHES. THE COVER AND CONTENTS SUFFER FROM FOLDING, SCUFFING OF EDGES, SPINE SPLITS, DISCOLOURATION, ETC.
