THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE GREEN LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION.
THERE IS NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THE BLACK TEXT IS ALSO IN PERFECT CONDITION
THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWS ZERO SPIDER LINES, AND I HAVE EXAMINED IT USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY MINT.
EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A FEW NEAR INVISIBLE WISPYSLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES ON SIDE ONE
BEAUTIFUL LOOKING RECORD
PLAYING THE RECORD
THIS VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER,
NO DISTORTION AT ANY POINT TO THE STEREO REPRODUCTION, SO NO GROOVE WEAR
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
A CLEAR , AND LOUD STEREO REPRODUCTION
THE RECORD PLAYS SUPERBLY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, CLEAN AUDIO AND ONLY THE ODD RANDOM SPECK OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND
THERE IS A LITTLE LOW LEVEL BACKGROUND AT THE START OF EACH SIDE FOR A FEW ROTATIONS
NOTHING TO MAR THE OUTSTANDING AUDIO PERFORMANCE WHATSOEVER
SO A BARELY PLAYED LP THAT HAS AN AUDIO GRADE OF MINT MINUS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED GLOSSY SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS A LINE OF PAPER SNAGGING ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE . MORE ON THE RIGHT HALF THAT THE LEFT
NO RING WEAR JUST A LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM
THE BOTTOM CORNERS HAVE SOME RUBBING
THERE IS ONE PRESSURE LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE , AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP EDGE HAS LIGHT SHELF RUB
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS RUB ALONG THE WHOLE OF THE SURFACE
THE SPINE IS FLAT , HAS NEAR PERFECT TYPEFACE AND JUST A SPECK OF RUB ON THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIP ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE HAS CLEAN COLOURS. LIKE THE FRONT THERE IS A SLIVER OF PAPER SNAGGING ON THE BOTTOM EDGE. FAR THINNER THAN THE FRONT AND MOSTLY ON THE LEFT HALF
THE INNER SLEEVE IS THE ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE DIE CUT ONE. NO SPLITS OR CREASES
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE VG
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
