 IN PARTICULAR THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ANY POINT.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS AT ANY POINT

THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF VINYL NOISE OR STATIC ANYWHERE AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE TOTALLY SILENT.

THE SLEEVE

UNLAMINATED SHOREWOOD SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS  PRISTINE. FIRSTLY THE VERY VULNERABLE BLACK DUSTY SURFACE IS PERFECT.

 NO COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER, AND UNLIKE MOST COPIES HAS ABSOLUTELY NO RECORD SHAPE OR RING WEAR. EVEN WHEN ANGLED INTO LIGHT!

ABSOLUTELY NO PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE AT ALL. NONE WHATSOEVER ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE. 

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND SHOWS WHY THE LP HAS NOT BEEN REMOVED FROM THE SLEEVE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH PERFECT WITH ALL OF THE BLACK COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER AND EVEN THE TIPS ARE UNRUBBED

THE SPINE IS ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE. TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. ALL OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THE BLACK UNDERSURFACE IS ALL THERE AS WELL, EVEN THE TOP END BOTTOM TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED

THE REAR SURFACE IS AGAIN  PRISTINE LIKE THE FRONT. ALL OF THE COLOURS ARE RETAINED 

NO PRESSURE LINES AGAINST ANY OF THE EDGES

THE RCA DIE CUT INNER SLEEVE IS IN TOP UNSPLIT CONDITION, AND EXTREMELY WHITE . AS GOOD AS YOU WOULD EVER HOPE TO FIND
