THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE DEEP GROOVED BLACK LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. 

THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ANYWHERE ON EITHER SIDE. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND THEREFORE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS JUST ONE VISIBLE SPIDER LINE ON THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND COULDN'T LOOK ANY BETTER. ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE HAS BEEN RETAINED. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OR ANY SIGNS OF HANDLING ON THE DISCS IN DAYLIGHT, AND IT LOOKS FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE ONLY ONE OR TWO VERY FINE WISPY HAIRLINES, 

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. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

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

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

THERE IS NO VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER, AND ONLY A COUPLE OF RANDOM SECONDS OF VERY LIGHT STATIC HEARD IF AT ALL IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES

I HEARD NO LITTLE DUST POPS, JUST A COUPLE OF TINY STATIC TICS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH 

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SUPERB DISC MINT MINUS!!!!

BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

THE SLEEVE

LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE, NON LAMINATED FLIPBACK REAR SURFACE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS IN TOP CONDITION AND IMPORTANTLY NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, AND ALL OF THE DELICATE COLOURS HAVE BEEN RETAINED WHICH IS VERY UNUSUAL FOR THIS OFTEN ABUSED COVER.

THERE IS NO RING WEAR WHICH IS AGAIN A RARITY, AND ONLY WHEN YOU ANGLE THE SLEEVE INTO STRONG LIGHT CAN YOU MAKE OUT A SLIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE 

THERE ARE FOUR MINUSCULE LINES NEAR THE SPINE. THREE ON THE TOP EDGE, AND ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, ONE MINUSCULE THUMB LINE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FULLY LAMINATED AND ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION. EVEN THE CORNER TIPS HAVE REMAINED UNBLEMISHED

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND HAS NO SQUASHING,  AND THERE IS NO WEAR TO THE SURFACE AND THIS INCLUDES THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS WHICH ONLY SHOW A PIN PRICK OF UNDERCARD

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL VERY SHARP, AND DOESN'T EVEN HAVE THOSE TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS EITHER

THE REAR SURFACE IS INCREDIBLE. THE WHITE SURFACE IS STILL PERFECTLY WHITE, AND THE FLIPBACKS UNBLEMISHED AND PERFECTLY ADHERED. IN THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER THE WORDS 'PRINTED IN ENGLAND G.P 10.60R' INDICATE THE SLEEVE WAS PRINTED IN OCTOBER 1960. THE RECORD MAY HAVE ALSO BEEN RELEASED IN 1960 OR AT THE LATEST EARLY 61

THE DIE CUT POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION. AMAZINGLY NO SEAM SPLITS AND NO CREASES

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS  SLEEVE MINT MINUS
