THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BLUE CHESS STEREO LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION.THE BLUE AREAS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND UNRUBBED, WHILST THE WHITE SECTIONS ARE PURE WHITE AND UNMARKED .THE SPINDLE HOLE IS UNWORN, AND A CLOSE INSPECTION REVEALS ABSOLUTELY ZERO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE. THERE IS RESIDUAL; SHARD OF VINYL STUCK TO THE HOLE ON SIDE TWO
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN MINT CONDITION AND HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN. THE DISC SHOWS NO SCRATCHES OR SCUFFS,AND IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS FLAWLESS,AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NO MORE ONE OR TWO OF THE TINIEST WISPY HAIRLINES 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, 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 BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.
THE LP PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.MEANING THAT WHAT LITTLE PLAY IT HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS
PLEASE LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES BECAUSE THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS QUITE BRILLIANT.
SO THERE IS NO LOUD CLICKS OR ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE
THE ODD SPECK OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES, AND I HEARD NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF THE TINIEST DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SOUND QUALITY MINT MINUS
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
FULLY LAMINATED PHILIPS SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN, AND AMAZINGLY HAS NOT LOST ONE JOT OF THE ORIGINAL COLOURS WHICH ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT.THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE, NOR ARE THERE ANY FOLDS OR BENDS.THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR
THERE IS JUST ONE MICROSCOPIC LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. ONE EQUALLY TINY ONE ON THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEXT TO THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE STILL BOTH FULLY LAMINATED AND FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR. ONLY THE BOTTOM TWO CORNER TIPS HAVE A TINY SPECK OF RUBBING TO THE ENDS
THE SPINE IS IMMACULATE. TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. THE LAMINATE IS PRISTINE AND THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND PRISTINE. BOTH TIP ENDS ARE UNRUBBED
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS LAMINATED AND IN SUPERB CONDITION. STILL PURE WHITE WITH PRISTINE LAMINATE AND NO LINES NEAR THE EDGES AND NO THUMB LINES. ALSO WORTH POINTING OUT THAT THIS SLEEVE HAS NO EVIDENCE OF RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE
THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED INNER IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND UNSPLIT BUT DOES HAVE AGEING TO THE EDGES IN PARTICULAR
THIS SLEEVE GRADES MINT MINUS WITH EASE
