THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE JET LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION, . THE BASE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND ARE UNBLEMISHED, AND THE TYPEFACE IS ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

THERE ARE JUST 1-2 SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE TO INDICATE THAT THE RECORDS HAVE HAD VERY LIMITED PLAY IN THE 42 YEARS SINCE IT WAS RELEASED

THE VINYL

LIMITED EDITION BLUE VINYL. THEY BOTH GLEAM LIKE NEW AND IN DAYLIGHT ARE TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE ONLY A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF SURFACE HANDLING LINES VISIBLE, PLUS A COUPLE OF TINY SURFACE NON SOUNDING MARKS

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 LP SET FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE 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 RECORDS PLAY WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER.

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

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY A FEW TINY SPECKS OF STATIC HEARD DURING ALL FOUR SIDES

I HEARD NO MORE THAN 6-7 OF THE TINIEST STATIC TICS THROUGH THE WHOLE 2 ALBUM PLAYTHROUGH

I AM HAPPY TO MAKE THE OVERALL GRADING NEAR MINT FOR THE AUDIO

TAKE A VERY GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

NON LAMINATED SHOREWOOD  GATEFOLD IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION.

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND VERY CLEAN AND HAS NO HEAVY CREASES.

THE FRONT SURFACE USUALLY HAS SMALL LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE, BUT THIS COPY HAS BEEN PROTECTED INSIDE A STRONG RECORD CASE FROM NEW AND HAS NO LINES NEAR THE SPINE WHATSOEVER. NONE EITHER ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND JUST ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE SPECIAL EDITION STICKER IS FIRMLY ADHERED TO THE TOP RIGHT CORNER

THERE IS NO RING WEAR, NOR EVEN ANY TRACE OF RECORD SHAPE. THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE WITH THE TOP AND BOTTOM RIGHT ONES HAVING A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE VERY TIP END

THE TOP EDGES ARE ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. NO RUBBING OR LOSS OF COLOUR WHERE IT RUNS FULLY FROM CORNER TO CORNER. ONLY THE VERY RIGHT CORNER TIP ENDS HAVE A PIN PRICK OF WHITE ON THEM. THE BOTTOM EDGES ARE ALMOST AS MAGNIFICENT. THE ONLY MINOR BLEMISH BEING A SMALL BIT OF RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNERS

THE SPINE IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT WHICH IS AGAIN UNUSUAL ON THIS SLEEVE WHICH USUALLY SUFFERS FROM RUBBING . TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UN-SQUASHED, AND ALL OF THE COLOUR IS THERE WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF WHITE ON THE BOTTOM TIPS.

ALL OF THE RED TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE REAR SURFACE IS ONCE AGAIN IMMACULATE WITH AN ULTRA GLOSSY SHEEN. AGAIN  NO TINY  LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE, THIS IS A SUPREME EXAMPLE. 

BOTH OPENING EDGES ARE RAZOR SHARP , SHOWING THAT THE VINYL HAS BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE ONLY ON A COUPLE OCCASIONS

THE OPENING EDGES ARE RAZOR SHARP

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE INTERIOR, WITH BOTH PANELS BEING PRESERVED IN A MINT CONDITION
