CONDITION
Disc
Labels: Very Good +
A clean & unworn pair bearing just a handful of light spindle trails around each centre hole.
Visual: Very Good +
Shows slight wear. The vinyl still has a great luster, but the flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye. the flaws don't cause any surface noise.
Sound Quality: Very Good +
My single careful play-check at volume found no groove/playwear distortion and only a hint of low-level vinyl background in the few quiet spots.
Cover: Very Good +
A virtually clean example which bears just slight age/storagewear but no significant or major faults. The striking front panel is slightly discoloured but retains a clean laminate. All corners and both opening edges are in great shape.
The matt rear panel is clean and black where it should with a little ink writing shown in photo.
Some minor wear to the seams or spine, but no tears or holes popping through.
All flipbacks are full intact and the spine is clean, fully worded.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT
This does have some age-toning to the paper but is otherwise uncreased with no writing, tears or seam splits.
Our grading is strict & conservative grading under 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
VERY GOOD PLUS or VG+
