The Vinyl
Visually: Stunning, deep gloss surfaces, with no signs of groove ware - both sides appear near pristine, even against reflected daylight there are only a couple of the lightest of surface handling lines - this disc has been handled with extreme care - lovely looking copy
Audio: As you would expect from the condition of the vinyl, the run ins are near silent - the tracks burst from the speakers with total clarity - this disc has been played and does display a touch of peak ware on some of the higher vocals (nothing much) - the whole album plays through with nothing more than the odd dust pop - a super copy
*
The Labels
Vibrant yellow parlophones - Gramophone rim text and 'Sold In UK' - noticeable spindle trails, both side - no damage or writing
*
Cover
G&L original displaying a small mono logo - amazing condition - it has the firmness of a new cover - the front panel is super smooth, with no more than a disc impression and just a couple of small crescent laminate bends only visible against reflected light - There are no stress lines or laminate wrinkles on the front panel edges, including the opening (very rare), just a single, tiny, barely visible crease on the bottom one - the spine is perfect - the back is in astonishing condition and only shows age related toning, made from thicker card it remains perfectly flat and the flips are solid - also shows the text 'patents pending' which may have been due to the change to a small mono logo on the front, suggesting that this is probably from early 1965 - the best PPM original I have ever seen
*
Inner Sleeve
Original with internal liner - rarer 'Made In England' text - no splits - minimal creasing
