THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PLUM LABELS ARE ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE. THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON THEM WHATSOEVER THE DEEP RICH COLOURS ARE STILL PRISTINE, AND EVEN USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS I CAN SEE NO MORE THAN 2-3 SPIDER LINES NEXT TO THE SPINDLE HOLE . THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS TOTALLY UNRUBBED AND ABSOLUTELY PERFECT
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE, AND IN DAY LIGHT IT LOOKS FLAWLESS. WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ALL YOU CAN SEE ARE SOME VERY WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES, AND A COUPLE OF TINY SURFACE HANDLING LINES
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 IN THE FIRM BELIEF 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 OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY, WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.
NO LOUD CLICKS AND NO MORE THAN A FEW ODD TINY SPECKS OF VERY LIGHT STATIC LIKE EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE IN A COUPLE OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES
NO POPS OR STICKS OR JUMPS, JUST AN OUTSTANDING 1964 1ST PRESS THAT PAYS SUPERBLY
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS !!!!
PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
JAMES UPTON FRONT LAMINATED, NON LAMINATED REAR SINGLE SLEEVE.
THE FRONT SURFACE IS A HIGHLY GLOSSY LAMINATE FINISH . THERE IS A LITTLE LAMINATE LIFT BY THE SPINE, AND A LITTLE YELLOWING UNDER THE LAMINATE ALSO ALONG THE SPINE. THERE ARE TWO SMALL LAMINATE LINES AGAINST THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND TWO SMALL THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE WAFER THIN OP EDGE IS FULLY LAMINATED LAMINATED FROM CORNER TO CORNER AND HAS NO RUBBING TO THE CORNER TIPS. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS ALMOST AS PRISTINE WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIP END
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND NOT SQUASHED. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND ONLY THE BOTTOM TIP SHOWS A TINY SPECK OF RUB
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL VERY VERY SHARP WITH JUST A COUPLE OF TINY SPECKS OF BURRING
THE REAR SURFACE ONLY HAS A LITTLE NATURAL AGEING AND HANDLING TO THE WHITE SURFACE. THERE ARE NO PEN MARKS OR STAINS, AND THE TYPEFACE HAS REMAINED UNRUBBED
THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS STILL PERFECTLY FLAT. THERE ARE A FEW VERY MILD CREASE LINES IN THE CORNERS AND THE LIGHT AGEING TO THE SURFACE. THE PLAIN SIDE HAS TWO ARTICLES ABOUT BOOKER T PASTED ON BY THE ORIGINAL OWNER
I'M HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EXCELLENT PLUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
