CONDITION

Disc

Labels: 1. MINT  2. EXCELLENT

An immaculate side 1 label with just slight wear to the hole on side 2.

Visual: EXCELLENT +

Pristine, clean & glossy playing surfaces which are totally unmarked in strong daylight with no scuffs, mark or scratch in sight. Close examination directly beneath my unforgiving halogen desk lamp reveals little more than a sparkling rainbow shine and a few harmless inner-sleeve storage/removal marks - but I really had to look to see them. Both sides of this top quality copy lie 100% flat on the turntable with no signs of dishing or warping.

Play: EXCELLENT +

From visual inspection it is clear that this copy has been barely played. The sound quality throughout is extremely clean & clear with no traces of any groove/playwear during my careful play-check at volume which suggests this copy has recieved only a few careful plays on top-quality equipment. Usually worn spots such as 'Eleanor Rigby' & 'Here, There & Everywhere' both played without distraction or interference, as did the rest of the album. In fact, apart form a little normal light background in the bands between tracks, I find it extremely difficult to fault.

Cover

VERY GOOD

This once near-perfect cover unfortunately was damaged in transit but it is still in quite presentable shape. The front panel is clean & white, albeit with some obvious bending and creasing. The main fault is a 2cm tear to the opening edge but apart form that, there is little else to worry about. The rear panel is clean & black with no ringwear, writing or missing paper. There is a bump in the spine but all flipbacks an seams are undamaged.

Inner-sleeve

EXCELLENT
