CONDITION
Disc
Labels: NEAR MINT
A 1st class set with just a handful of light spindle trails around each unworn centre hole.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Pristine deep-gloss playing surfaces which are unworn and unmarked in strong daylight with just a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines visible directly beneath my unforgiving halogen desk lamp.
Sound Quality: MINT
Both songs have never sounded better than they do on this pressing which provides reference sound quality for both tracks. Each is completely unworn and plays with an incredible clarity and power missing from any other format and is guaranteed not to disappoint.
Cover: EXCELLENT +
Perfectly clean, flat & totally unworn with the original owner's name discreetly written in the upper right corner and the disc's catalogue number in the front & rear upper right corners.
