CONDITION
Disc
Labels: NEAR MINT
An immaculate set with no more than 2 or 3 faint spindle trails around each unworn centre hole.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Superb looks near perfect just a couple of tiny sleeve removal hairlines
Play: NEAR MINT
This wonderful sounding disc has clearly only ever been played once or twice on top-quality equipment only and my careful single play-check at volume found the sound to be flawless throughout. Both run-ins are near to silent and the exposed areas such as the delicate introduction to 'Here Comes The Sun' and the opening piano intro of 'You Never Give Me Your Money' are free form any background interference, ticks or clicks, as in fact is the entire LP. This one will not disappoint one of the best players i have had the pleasure to listen to
Cover
EXCELLENT +
A top-class example with a pristine, unscratched laminate where the only blemishes are 2 small creases to front sleeve . All corners and both opening edges are sharp and unworn and certanily without any significant bumps or bruising. The rear panel is lovely and clean just a couple of minute creases near spine. Both seams and the fully worded spine are all smooth, unstressed and completely unworn.
Inner-sleeve
EXCELLENT
