THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE SPACESHIP LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE COLOURS ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED. A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS REVEALS ZERO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS. UNDER AN LED MAGNIFYING HALO THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO LINES ANYWHERE. NOT EVEN WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL LINES
PLAYING THE RECORD
THE BEST EXAMPLE I HAVE EVER HAD THE PLEASURE TO PLACE ON EBAY
TOTALLY MINT FROM START TO FINISH
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 VINYL SOUNDS
THE VINYL PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ANY POINT
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE ANYWHERE, AND INCREDIBLY NO AUDIBLE STATIC EVEN IN THE LINKING GROOVES
I DIDN'T HEAR ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS THOUGH
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THIS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN A COLLECTIBLE CONDITION. THE REASON BEING THAT THE DELICATE CREAM WHITE SURFACE IS USUALLY FOUND VERY GRUBBY AND RING WORN. THIS ONE DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER, HAS REMAINED IN SUPERB CONDITION
THE CREAMY WHITE SURFACE IS PERFECT. NO GRIME OR HANDLING MARKS
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE, AND ALL FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THERE ARE ZERO PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE . NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH PERFECT WITH ALL OF THE CREAM COLOUR PRISTINE AND TOTALLY UNMARKED AND UNRUBBED. EVEN THE CORNER TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND FREE FROM ANY SQUASHING. AGAIN THE CREAM SURFACE IS IMMACULATE . NO COLOUR LOSS, AND PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE TYPEFACE. UNBLEMISHED ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP FROM TOP TO BOTTOM
THE REAR SURFACE IS AS PERFECT AS THE FRONT
THE PICTURE / LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION. TOTALLY FLAT AND UNCREASED, AND NO SPLITS TO ANY OF THE SEAMS.
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS MAGNIFICENT SLEEVE MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
