THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE YELLOW LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK OR STAIN ON THEM. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS ONE MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINE ON EITHER ON SIDE OF THE LABEL AND THIS I COULD ONLY SEE USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS. WHEN PLACED UNDER A STRONG SPOTLIGHT, THERE ARE SOME EMBEDDED DULL SPECKLES WHICH ARE NON SOUNDING AND TYPICAL OF SOME US VINYL PRESSINGS, ALSO NO MORE THAN 2-3 WISPY HAIRLINES ON SIDE TWO
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 COMPLETE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LIKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE BIDDING. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY CRACKLE OR CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
ONE OR TWO SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF SILENT PASSAGES
NO DUST POPS JUST 1-2 MINUSCULE STATIC TICS DURING THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
JUST A PERFECT STEREO REPRODUCTION
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS FOR THE PLAYTHROUGH
THE SLEEVE
US HEAVY CARD GATEFOLD SLEEVE
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND PERFECTLY SQUARE
THE COLOURS ON THE FRONT SURFACE ARE NEAR PRISTINE. RICH AND VIBRANT AND HAVE REMAINED FREE FROM ANY RUBBING. THERE IS JUST THE SLIGHTEST THIN SHADOW OF AGEING TO THE EDGES
THERE IS JUST ONE PRESSURE LINE AGAINST THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES ON THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE VIRTUALLY NO TRACE OF SHELF WEAR WITH SMOOTH COLOUR AND ONLY USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS CAN IS SEE SOME EVIDENCE OF VERY MILD WEAR. THE RIGHT CORNER TIPS DO HAVE A LITTLE VISIBLE RUBBING
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND FREE OF ANY SQUASHING. A LITTLE AGEING TO THE WHITE SURFACE, BUT NO DAMAGE
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PRISTINE INNER PANELS
THE ATCO ADVERTISING INNER SLEEVE IS FREE FROM SPLITS OR CREASES AND ONLY LIGHTLY AGED AROUND THE EDGES
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
