LABELS: Clean, bright, fresh and unmarked labels with just one light spindle trace on Side One, none on Side Two - barely played - MINT(-)
VINYL Visual: Both surfaces retain their original deep, glossy sheen and appear practically as-new, there are one or two light hairlines but these are of no audio consequence - the playback is superb - visually MINT(-)
VINYL Audio: Deep, rich and strong audio reproduction with a crystal clear, warm detailed sound (as one would expect from Decca who cut some of the finest sounding records). On careful play at a loud volume it sounds sensational and there are no scratches, no sticks/jumps, no clicks/pops and no surface noise - the run-ins and track divisions are practically silent and I have no hesitation giving a MINT audio grading for this one - its flawless - the best I've heard and they don't come better than this
SLEEVE: The original front laminated cover with top and bottom flipbacks is clean and fresh with little wear. The edges are crisp, square and unworn and the spine displays all text clear and bold. There is a little discolouration in the bottom corner (please see close-up photos) but it's minor otherwise, a beautifully preserved example of this original sleeve, now almost 50 years old! - EXCELLENT
And the original poly-lined inner is clean, fresh and unmarked with no splits - practically untouched - NEAR MINT

Any items purchased after payment will be included in the next 10 period.

Guarantee: I endeavour to be as accurate and honest as possible when describing the condition of any LP but of course if you feel that I am mistaken and the description is inaccurate I will offer a complete, no quibble refund (through Paypal) upon return of the item.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to a recent spate of bidders with no feedback not paying for records I must insist that all bidders with 0 feedback contact me first before bidding to confirm their genuine intention to buy the record otherwise their bid will be cancelled and they will be blocked. Sorry to sound so authoritarian but non payers are a real waste of not only my time but genuine eBayers
