Condition
Labels: NEAR MINT
An exquisite set with just a single spindle mark to each centre-hole.
Visual: EXCELLENT +
Both surfaces of this impressive copy are extremely bright and glossy and unmarked in strong daylight. Careful inspection directly beneath my halogen desk lamp reveals just a single insignificant hairline on track 1, side 1 & a few barely visible wispy sleeve removal marks, but no other visual faults or wear.
Play: NEAR MINT
This wonderful copy has been played just once and sounds 'as new' throughout' with no traces of groovewear distortion, background noise on or between any of the songs.
Cover
EXCELLENT
An extremely clean & strong example which just minimal storagewear. The only blemishes are a small pin-hole just under the upper edge and a tiny ink mark on Ringo's neck. Otherwise this is an very impressive example with no further faults or wear.
- Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
- I carefully play every record I sell on a $5,000 Rega P9 turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.
- Unless stated, all records lie 100% flat & play without distortion, jumps or sticks. All sleeves/covers have no writing, splits or tears.
- All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
- All records are professionally & securely in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover. All text & images © Bright Field Music 2008
