CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT +
Both are clean & bright with some spindle trails to each but still with a section of the silver centre marker present on 2.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Immaculate, 'as new' and totally unmarked surfaces in strong daylight which look as if they just left the factory. Even close examination directly beneath my halogen desk lamp fails to reveals more than just a few barely visible insignificant wispy paper hairlines. These sparkling rainbow gloss surfaces are as good as you could hope to find.
Play: NEAR MINT
This wonderful sounding copy has received just a small amount of extremely careful play on high-end equipment. I am happy to report that the sound is 'as new' throughout with no traces of any groove/playwear distortion or any background noise anywhere. Even the easily damaged tracks such as; 'Eleanor Rigby', 'Here There & Everywhere' & 'Yellow Submarine' are totally unworn. My careful play check found just a single light 'pop' on 'Eleanor Rigby' but absolutely no other distractions elsewhere on this superb copy.
Cover
EXCELLENT +
A fine strong, clean & undamaged example. The front laminate is bright & white, retaining its high-gloss finish with just a single small 'thumbnail' & spine bend. All corners are square and unbumped and both opening edges appear untouched. The rear panel is perfectly clean & black where it should be with no fingermarks, writing or missing paper. All flipbacks, seams and the fully worded spine are smooth and totally undamaged.
Inner-sleeve
VERY GOOD +
Slight storagewear and a faint mark to the front but overall clean & white with no splits, tears or writing.
- Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
- I carefully play every record I sell on a $5,000 Rega P9 turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.
- All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
- All records are professionally & securely in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover.
