·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          THE VINYL IS ABSOLUTELY, PERFECTLY MINT,  as if never played before. The original luster is totally intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles like brand new. The labels look perfect, simply gorgeous, with absolutely no trace of wear around the spindle hole. The record is TOTAL PERFECTION - ABSOLUTE VISUAL NIRVANA! We are confident that, in this condition, the record we present here is truly once-in-a-lifetime find.

(b)          The records come in a hi-grade PVC inner sleeves, which have - apparently with success - shielded the vinyl from the harmful impact of elements over many years!

(c)           The album comes with original Japanese OBI strip/ribbon

(d)          The album comes with  rare original Japanese-only photo-illustrated booklet.

(e)           The album comes with its original, large poster INCLUDED (in beautiful condition)

(f)            The records are pressed on a RELATIVELY  thick, inflexible vinyl. This is NOT a thin, flimsy ('dynaflex' type),  vinyl, but not the thickest, most rigid vinyl, either.

(g)          The records are pressed on a beautiful, high-quality, virgin-grade vinyl, which is usually used for audiophile, extended-dynamic-range, half-speed mastered and connoisseur pressings.

(h)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
