THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

BEAUTIFUL PASTEL BLUE LABELS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. JUST ONE MICROSCOPIC , BARELY VISIBLE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN PLAYED IN THE 44 YEARS SINCE IT WAS PRESSED.

THE VINYL

THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IS CLEAR BY LOOKING AT IT THAT IT HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED. IN DAY LIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS AND THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OF ANY DESCRIPTION, AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UPTO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES TO BE SEEN

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 AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS 

A TRUE FIRST PRESS PERFORMANCE WITH A STEREO REPRODUCTION THAT IS JUST MAGNIFICENT.  NEAR SILENT RUN IN'S AND LINKING GROOVES LEADING TO PERFECT SOUND PLAYED WITHOUT DISTORTION THUS NO GROOVE WEAR.

THE BLUE HORIZON VINYL OF THE LATE 60S LIKE THE ISLAND VINYL WAS NOT THE BEST QUALITY, AND MANY COPIES HAVE EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE THAT SITS WELL BEHIND THE MUSIC. THIS HAS A LITTLE THAT CAN BE HEARD SITTING AS I DO 18 INCHES FROM MY SPEAKERS AS I TYPE THIS OUT. MOVING TO NORMAL LISTENING DISTANCE AND IT IS VIRTUALLY ALL ELIMINATED

THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY SERIOUS BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS,

THERE ARE A FEW LITTLE DUST POPS AND TICS HERE AND THERE

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SUPERB DISC'S PLAYTHROUGH AS NEAR MINT!!!!

BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN FOR YOURSELF AND YOU BE THE JUDGE

THE SLEEVE

LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE AND NON LAMINATED REAR SURFACE 'E.J.DAY LIMITED' SINGLE SLEEVE IS MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THE LAMINATE ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR.

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. NO LAMINATE PEEL OF FLAKE OR LIFT EITHER, AMAZINGLY NO LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE. THERE ARE TWO TINY ONES ON EACH OF THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES, BUT NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE SPINE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER, AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PROPERLY INTACT, AND RUNS FULLY FROM CORNER TIP TO CORNER TIP

THE SPINE IS VERY THIN AND UNLAMINATED AND THERE ARE A FEW FLECKS OF WHITE SHOWING THROUGH THE BROWN SURFACE, MAKING A COUPLE OF THE LETTERS HARD TO READ

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL VERY SHARP WITH JUST ONE SMALL THUMB NAIL NICK ON THE LEADING EDGE TOWARDS THE BOTTOM

THE REAR SURFACE IS UNLAMINATED BUT IN IMMACULATE CONDITION. AGAIN NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES, ALL OF THE BLACK EASILY RUBBED SURFACE IS PRISTINE. NO LINES NEAR THE SPINE, JUST ONE CLOSE TO THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER

THE COLOURS ARE JUST PRISTINE AND THERE IS NO RUBBING OR WEAR ANYWHERE

AGAIN NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE.

THE  STEREO STICKER IS FIRMLY IN PLACE IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER

THE INNER POLY LINED SLEEVE IS ALSO IN   PRISTINE CONDITION. IT IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSPLIT, AS WELL AS BEING UNCREASED

THIS SLEEVE WITHOUT A DOUBT GRADES NEAR MINT!!!

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
