Disc
Labels: NEAR MINT
A bright & unworn set bearing nothing more than a small handful of light spindle trails around each unworn centre hole.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Pristine, deep-gloss playing surfaces which retain all of their factory shine and are totally unmarked in strong daylight. Closer inspection directly beneath my unforgiving halogen desk lamp reveals just a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines consistent with inner-sleeve removal but no other trace of wear whatsoever. Both sides of this cherished copy lie 100% flat on the turntable when playing.
Sound Quality: NEAR MINT
This flawless sounding copy has received just a few careful plays on quality equipment and as a result, all tracks play cleanly & clearly without any trace of groove/playwear. My single careful play-check revealed just a touch of low-level vinyl background between tracks and on 'Here, there & Everywhere', but no clicks, pops or any other significant or major audible distractions.
Cover: EXCELLENT
A firm & unworn example which bears minor storagewear without any major faults. The front panel is clean with a hint of toning along the spine area but no 'thumbnail' or even any spine wrinkles. There is slight bruising to the corners but no significant wear to either opening edge. The exposed rear panel is clean & black where it should be with just a trace of storage rubbing but no writing or missing paper anywhere. All flipbacks are fully intact and undamaged and both seams are smooth & unstressed.
The spine is slightly discoloured but unbent and all of the text is covered and unworn.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT -
Slight age-toning and a few soft storage bends with a small ink spot on one side but no tears or seam splits.
