THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE VERTIGO SPACESHIP LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. NOT ONE MARK ON THEM, AND THE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
ALL OF THE TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE UNRUBBED AND ARE ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO SPIDER LINES NEXT TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS
WHEN PLACED UNDER SPOTLIGHTS IT STILL LOOKS MINT
THE TEST PLAY
OUTSTANDING MINT AUDIO FROM START TO FINISH
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER, AND THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB
AN ABSOLUTELY CLEAN AND CLEAR AUDIO PERFORMANCE THAT HAS ABSOLUTELY NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER
NO VINYL NOISE AND NO STATIC IN ANY OF THE LINKING GROOVES
I HEARD NO DUST POPS OR STATIC TICS AT ALL
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS DISC MINT
DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND 100% FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE COLOURS ARE PRISTINE AND RICH AND VIBRANT
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE STILL VERY SHARP AND SQUARE, WITH A TINY SPECK OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT ONE
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES AND THE MAIN BODY OF THE SLEEVE IS IMMACULATE.
THE ORIGINAL W H SMITH PRICE STICKER SITS IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER
THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGE IS NEAR PRISTINE WITH ALL OF THECOLOURRUNNING FROM CORNER TIP TO TIP. JUST A COUPLE OF PIN PRICKS OF WHITE SHOWING
THE BOTTOM EDGE IS SIMILAR
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, THE TYEPFACE IS PERFECT AND THE COLOURS ARE ONLY MARRED BY A FEW FLECKS OF WHITE ON THE ELADING EDGES
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS IMMACULATE AS THE FRONT
THE ORIGINAL GREY CARD INNER IS UNSPLIT ALONG THE SEAMS. AND UNLIKE VIRTUALLY EVER ONE I HAVE SEEN THIS ONE HAS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE. JUST IMMACULATE IN FACT.
THIS INNER ALSO HISTORICALLY SUFFERS FROM FOXING, BUT THIS ONE HAS NONE AT ALL
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
