 UK TEST PRESSING 1955

***


HERE IS A SUPERB COPY OF THIS FINE AND SOUGHT AFTER RECORDING, BOTH DISCS PRESSED ON THICK , HEAVY 215g VINYL.  THE GROOVED TEST LABELS ARE HANDWRITTEN, BOTH ARE CLEAN AND UNDAMAGED. 

THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS MARKS ON THE VINYL.  CLOSE INSPECTION OF THE DISC UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT SHOWS JUST THE ODD WHISPY HAIRLINE.  I HAVE LISTENED CLOSELY TO THE TWO DISCS IN THEIR ENTIRETY AND THERE IS VERY LITTLE TO FAULT.  THEY HAVE BEEN CAREFULLY AND RARELY PLAYED IN THEIR 63 YEARS.   THE VERY OCCASIONAL LIGHT POP AND A LITTLE BARELY AUDIBLE RUSTLE BETWEEN TRACKS IS ALL I DETECTED ON A HIGH QUALITY SYSTEM. THE SOUND IS CRYSTAL CLEAR ,  SUPERB SOUNDING DISCS THAT WILL NOT DISAPPOINT.

VISUAL GRADING FOR DISCS IS EXCELLENT

AUDIO GRADING FOR DISCS IS EXCELLENT 

THE COVER IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. IT HAS NO MAJOR FAULTS, AND REMAINS IN GREAT SHAPE.  THERE IS A NEAT INTERNAL REPAIR TO A 5CM  SPLIT TO THE BOTTOM SEAM ADJACENT TO THE OPENING EDGE.  THERE ARE ALSO A COUPLE OF BREAKS IN THE SPINE, NOT SURPRISING WHEN YOU CONSIDER THE WEIGHT OF THE DISCS.  SOME VERY SLIGHT LAMINATE PEEL IS EVIDENT AT THE EDGES.  REMEMBER THIS COVER WAS DESIGNED FOR ONE DISC, NOT TWO! 

COVER GRADED AS VERY GOOD

THE POLYTHENE INNERS ARE THE ORIGINAL ISSUES.  THERE ARE NO SPLITS, NICE EXAMPLE.

I GRADE RECORDS CONSERVATIVELY USING MY INTERPRETATION OF THE RARE RECORD COLLECTOR PRICE GUIDE GRADING SYSTEM.  I DO MY BEST TO GIVE ACCURATE ASSESSMENTS BUT AS WE ALL KNOW THE GRADING OF USED VINYL IS VERY MUCH A SUBJECTIVE MATTER.  I OFFER A NO QUIBBLE FULL REFUND IF THE WINNING BIDDER WISHES TO RETURN THE ITEM.  ALL I ASK IS THAT THE ITEM IS RETURNED IN IT'S ORIGINAL PACKAGING IN THE SAME STATE AS IT WAS SENT WITHIN 14 DAYS OF RECEIPT. I DO NOT GIVE PARTIAL REFUNDS.

POSTAGE WILL BE BY 1ST CLASS SIGNED FOR DELIVERY TO UK AND INTERNATIONAL SIGNED WITH INSURANCE FOR OVERSEAS BUYERS.  PLEASE DO NOT PAY UNTIL INVOICED.  SORRY BUT I NO LONGER POST TO RUSSIA, UKRAINE OR ANY OTHER PARTS OF THE FORMER USSR.  

RECORDS ARE REMOVED FROM THE OUTER SLEEVES , PLACED IN A POLYTHENE PROTECTOR AND POSTED IN A SOLID BOX MAILER.  THIS MEANS THE ITEM WILL REACH YOU IN THE BEST POSSIBLE CONDITION.

THANKS FOR READING AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS I WILL DO MY BEST TO ANSWER PROMPTLY.
