THE RARE MISSPRESS "DOCTOR ROBERT " LABEL
THE SLEEVE
SUPERB EXAMPLE. WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS SLEEVE IS THAT THERE IS NO CREASING TO THE LAMINATE. IT IS PERFECTLY FLAT AND UNBLEMISHED IN THIS WAY. ALSO THE BACK ALWAYS SUFFERS FROM RING WEAR, BUT I AM PLEASED TO REPORT THAT THIS ONE DOESN'T.
IT IS A GENUINE GARROD & LOFTHOUSE SLEEVE WITH THE CORRECT FLIPBACKS WHICH ARE ALL IN PERFECT CONDITION. THE SPINE IS PRISTINE, PERFECTLY FLAT AND VERY EASILY READ. THE ONLY THING THAT STOPS THIS FROM BEING A MINT CONDITION SLEEVE IS THAT THERE IS SOME LIGHT BROWING OF THE WHITE SURFACE.
I WOULD GRADE THIS SLEEVE EASILY EX+
THE ORIGINAL ADVERTISING INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO INCLUDED, AGAIN THIS IS PIN PERFECT FLAT AND UNDAMAGED CONDITION, JUST THE SAME LIGHT BROWNING.
THE LABELS
SUPERB EXAMPLES OF THE YELLOW AND BLACK PARLOPHONE LABEL. UNBLEMISHED EXAMPLES ,SUPERB TO LOOK AT. OF COURSE THIS SET INCLUDES THE MISS PRINTED DOCTOR ROBERT LABEL. THE COVER HAS THE TITLE DR. ROBERT, WHILST THE LABEL HAS THE FULL DESCRIPTION. THESE WERE SHORTLY AFTER RELEASED REPRINTED WITH THE CORRECT DR. ROBERT LABEL.
NO SPINDLE HOLE WEAR AT ALL, AND ONLY A COUPLE OF LIGHT SPIDER LINES TO INDICATE THAT THE LP HAS ONLY HAD A FEW CAREFUL PLAYS IN ITS 38 YEAR HISTORY.
THE VINYL
IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. WHEN FIRST REMOVED FROM THE INNER SLEEVE YOU WOOULD THINK THAT IT WAS BRAND NEW. IT GLEAMS EXATLY LIKE A BRAND NEW ALBUM.UNDER NORMAL LIGHT IT IS SPOTLESS. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION YOU CAN MAKE OUT A FEW LIGHT PAPER SCUFF WHICH ARE NON SOUNDING AND IF YOU LOOK REALLY HARD YOU CAN BEGIN TO MAKE OUT A FEW HAIRLINES, WHICH ARE ONLY CAUSED BY THE REMOVAL OF THE LP FROM THE INNER SLEEVE. I HAVE PROTECTED THIS FROM FURTHER LINES BY INCLUDING A POLY LINES INNER SLEEVE.
THE SOUND
WELL THIS IS WHAT IT'S REALLY ABOUT. FROM THE NEAR SILENT RUN IN GROOVES THE LP BURSTS INTO TAXMAN WITH ABSOLUTE CLARITY AND CONTINUES THIS WAY RIGHT THROUGHOUT THE ALBUM. IT SOUNDS STUNNING AND I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS MINT MINUS, SOME WOULD EVEN GRADE THIS MINT I SUPPOSE.
A FIRST CLASS EXAMPLE OF A FRIST CLASS BEATLES CLASSIC
