VINYL RECORD 1 / 2 HAS AN EXCELLENT DEEP GLOSSY SHEEN TO BOTH SIDES WITH THE ODD VERY LIGHT HANDLING / NEEDLE MARK NOTHING FEELABLE OR THAT AFFECTS THE AUDIO ,THE LABELS ARE ALSO IN CLEAN CONDITION WITH ANY SPINDLE MARKS CONFINED TO THE RECORD CENTRES
VINYL RECORD 3 / 4 ALSO HAS A SIMILAR DEEP GLOSSY SHEEN TO THE SURFACES ALSO SHOWING THE ODD LIGHT NEEDLE /HANDLING MARK BUT AGAIN DOESN'T AFFECT THE AUDIO AND THE LABELS ARE ALSO BRIGHT AND CLEAN WITH ANY SPINDLE MARKS AGAIN CONFINED TO THE RECORD CENTRES
HAVE PLAYED BOTH RECORDS A COUPLE OF TIMES ON OUR SIXTIES HI-FI SYSTEM AND THE AUDIO WAS EXCELLENT WITH MAYBE JUST THE ODD POP NOW AND AGAIN ,THIS DOUBLE LP IS FIFTY YEARS OLD, NOW IT IS THE BEATLES AND IT WILL HAVE BEEN PLAYED, BUT IT HAS BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER ,I NORMALLY FIND THE CONDITION OF THE SLEEVE USUALLY DICTATES THE CONDITION THE VINYL INSIDE
