CONDITION

Disc

Labels: NEAR MINT

An immaculate set with just a single faint spindle trail around each completely unworn centre hole.

Visual: NEAR MINT

Pristine deep-gloss playing surfaces which are totally unmarked in strong daylight and bear just a few barley visible wispy paper hairlines from the inner-sleeve visible upon closer inspection directly beneath my unforgiving halogen desk lamp.

Sound Quality: MINT

This great sounding copy has received just one or two careful plays on excellent equipment. There is absolutely no groove/playwear distortion on any track or channel or in indeed any other audible faults or wear.

Cover: NEAR MINT

A superb example which has been carefully stored within a clean, non-smoking environment these past 42 years. The high-gloss front panel is perfectly clean & unscratched with just a faint bend along the upper edge but no 'thumbnails' or any other traces of wear. All corners are sharp and unworn and both opening edges appear untouched. The rear panel is perfectly clean, as are all perfectly intact flipbacks.

Both seams are smooth & unstressed and the spine is clean, unbent & fully worded.

Inner-sleeve: MINT
