CONDITION
Disc
Labels: Excellent
A clean & bright pair with some light wear to the centre hole but no other problems.
Visual: Excellent +
Both playing surfaces are clean & bright, displaying several faint surface marks and an occasional harmless light hairline but certainly nothing deep or feelable. Close inspection directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp reveals numerous light, wispy marks consistent with inner-sleeve removal and turntable play. This quality piece of heavy vinyl lies 100% flat on the turntable with no signs of any dishing or warping.
Play: Excellent
Careful plays since new. There is no major deterioration to the sound throughout. Apart from some light background audible in the few quiet passages, my careful play check detected no clicks, pops or any other significant audible faults.
Cover
Front - Excellent
Back - VERY GOOD
A very strong and firm example which retains a vibrant & glossy front laminate. There is a small number written near the large stereo. The laminate towards the opening edges are excellent but no 'thumbnails' or any other signficant signs of or wear. The lower corners have slight shelfwear rubbing. The bottom seam has come away 4cm (this can be repaired) NO SEAM SPLITS
Names written to rear (see pictures) Slight tape residue next to the flipback damage.
Spine is stunning. Fully readable superb!
