I HAVE ACQUIRED A COLLECTION OF STUNNING VINYLS THAT BELONGED TO A COLLECTOR WHO HANDLED BOTH VINYL AND SLEEVE METICULOUSLY. INCREDIBLE ALBUMS THAT I WILL BE LISTING OVER THE COMING WEEKS. THIS IS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY TO COLLECT VINTAGE VINYL IN THE SORT OF CONDITION THAT YOU COULD ONLY DREAM ABOUT..LISTEN TO THE ENTIRE LP BEFORE LAYING A BID, AS I HAVE RECORDED EVERY SINGLE SECOND

MY LONG STANDING SERIOUS COLLECTOR CUSTOMERS WILL APPRECIATE THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A PRISTINE MUSEUM GRADE  ALBUM. NEW CUSTOMERS AS WELL, IF YOU ARE SERIOUSLY INTO COLLECTING THEN THIS MUST NOT BE PASSED UP

THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE ORANGY RED POLYDOR LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK OR STAIN ON THEM. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE 1-2 SPIDER LINES ROUND THE HOLE.

THE VINYL

THE VINYL IS JUST PRISTINE. THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON IT AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS. ONLY UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES

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 STEREO 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 JUST THE ODD SECOND OF STATIC IN A FEW OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES AND A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES.

I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY MORE THAN ONE DUST POP THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM VERY PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SUPERB DISC'S PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT MINUS!!!  IT IS THAT GOOD

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO IT, AND YOU BE THE JUDGE

THE SLEEVE

THIS IS A LAMINATED FRONT , UNLAMINATED REAR MACNEILL PRESS SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY FLAT AND  FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES OR EVEN BENDS.THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR 

THERE ARE SIX MINUSCULE LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE, NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE ALL SHARP AND SQUARE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH PERFECTLY LAMINATED. THE COLOUR UNDERNEATH FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, AND EVEN THE CORNER TIPS ARE UNRUBBED

THE WAFER THIN SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED WITH ONE  LIGHT FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION. THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM, PERFECT UNRUBBED TIP ENDS. THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS ALSO STILL RAZOR SHARP .

THE UNLAMINATED REAR SURFACE IS STILL FULLY COLOURED WITH ONLY THE BAREST SHADOW OF GREYING UNDER THE TOP EDGE,

THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND APART FROM A LITTLE BROWNING THOROUGH AGE IS IN UNSPLIT CONDITION, SOME WRINKLING TO THE TOP

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
