THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE ROUGH TEXTURED LABELS ARE STILL VERY RICH AND VIBRANT WITH JUST A COUPLE OF LIGHTER PATCHES VISIBLE
THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED
THERE ARE A COUPLE OF VISIBLE SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS HEAVYWEIGHT AND IN GLEAMING CONDITION. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS FLAWLESS AND ONLY UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES AND SOME LIGHT HANDLING LINES VISIBLE
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.
THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE FIRST THING TO NOTE IS THAT THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT THE COUPLE OF PLAYS THE ALBUM HAS RECEIVED WERE COMPLETED ON SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS.
SECONDLY THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
THE MONO REPRODUCTION IS AS CLEAR AS A BELL WITH EVERY NOTE HEARD EXACTLY AS WAS INTENDED
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AT ALL EITHER
THE VINYL PLAYS JUST SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, WITH A LITTLE VERY LIGHT BACKGROUND SURFACE NOISE IN SOME PLACES
THERE ARE SOME RANDOM TICS AND POPS
THE DISC GRADES EXCELLENT TO EXCELLENT PLUS
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO IT, AND YOU BE THE JUDGE
THE SLEEVE
THIS IS A LAMINATED FRONT , UNLAMINATED REAR E.J .DAY SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY FLAT AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES , BENDS OR FOLDS
THE LAMINATE STILL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR
THERE ARE TWO SMALL LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE, SIX MINUSCULE ONES ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND FOUR ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. ONE SMALL THUMB LINE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE BOTTOM LEFT AND RIGHT CORNER TIPS ARE LIGHTLY RUBBED
THE TOP EDGE IS STILL FULLY LAMINATE AND THIS RUNS UNINTERRUPTED FROM CORNER TO CORNER.EVEN THE CORNER TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED. THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS A COUPLE OT WHITE SPECKS IN THE MIDDLE AND THE TWO CORNERS ARE RUBBED
THE WAFER THIN SPINE IS FLAT AND LIGHTLY AGED AND AGAIN IS UNRUBBED APART FROM THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS
THE OPENING EDGE IS ALSO STILL VERY SHARP CONDITION, WITH JUST A COUPLE OF ROUGH AREAS TOWARDS THE BOTTOM
THE UNLAMINATED REAR SURFACE IS STILL INCREDIBLY WHITE UNUSUALLY SO, BECAUSE MOST HAVE SOILED BADLY OF HEAVILY AGED. THIS ONE ONLY HAVE THE BAREST TRACE OF HANDLING TO THE EDGES
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND HAS A FEW WRINKLES BUT IS UNSPLIT. SOME GLUE AGEING TO THE EDGES
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EXCELLENT PLUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
