CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT +
A perfectly clean & unworn set with just a small handful of light spindle trails around each centre hole.
Visual: EXCELLENT +
Extremely clean deep-gloss & unworn playing surfaces which bear just a few harmless wispy paper hairlines directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp, but no further significant visual wear whatsoever.
Sound Quality: EXCELLENT +
This great sounding, well looked after disc has been carefully & sparingly played and is without any deterioration to the sound quality or audible faults.
Cover: EXCELLENT +
Carefully stored within a clean, non-smoking environment, this cover looks like it left the shops yesterday - let alone 48 years ago.
The unscratched, high-gloss front panel is perfectly clean, white and unyellowed throughout. The only trace of wear is an unavoidable faint inner ring impression from storage and a tiny 'thumbnail' wrinkle towards the front edge. All corners & both opening edges are in perfect, unworn condition
The exposed rear panel has the original owners name discreetly written in the upper left corner, but is otherwise flawless.
