CONDITION

Disc

Labels: EXCELLENT +

Both are clean & bright with a small collection of light spindle trails around each centre hole.

Visual: EXCELLENT

Extremely clean deep-gloss playing surfaces which apart from a 3cm hairline scratch on side 1 are pristine & unmarked in strong daylight. Close and careful examination directly beneath my unforgiving halogen desk lamp reveals little more than some harmless wispy paper hairlines from inner-sleeve removal and a sparkling rainbow shine.

Sound Quality: EXCELLENT +

This fine sounding copy has received minimal careful play on high-end equipment and is free from any trace of groove/playwear on any track or in either channel. There are some intermittent light ticks on 'Here, There & Everywhere' due to the aforementioned scratch but really nothing else to fault audibly. The sound remains highly enjoyable and is totally free from any trace of background interference.

Cover: EXCELLENT +

A clean, strong and most importantly white example which retains a sparkling high-gloss front laminate bearing just a single 'thumbnail' wrinkle. There is a little shelfwear bruising to the lower corners ,but no wear at all to either opening edge. The easily worn rear panel is clean and black where it should be with no storage/ringwear, writing or missing paper. All flipbacks are clean & fully intact and both seams and the spine are all smooth, unstressed and unworn.

Inner-sleeve: NEAR MINT

Perfectly clean & flat with just the unavoidable faint disc impression, but essentially 'as new'.
