FANTASY Paint A Picture 1973 POLYDOR UK Prog Rock ULTRA RARE
Label:- POLYDOR
Catalogue: - 2383-246
On offer here is the ultra rare and much sought after 1973 UK original of Paint a Picture by Fantasy. This ones in superb, absolute minimal play condition
Vinyl: - NEAR MINT (Barely played and visually stunning. All I can see under very bright light is one tiny, 1.5cm ultra light and non audible hairline. My full test play produced superb sound quality. Top copy! You will not be disappointed. I have cleaned the vinyl before this auction on my Okki Nokki machine using L'Art Du Son cleaning fluid which greatly enhances the sound quality.)
Sleeve:- EX- (Along the top back edges there is a little residue left behind from what must have been cellotape. The front top edge only has a faint line inside left by same tape residue. This was probably done originally to protect the record as there is no evidence of separation etc. There are two or three extremely faint indented lines on the front cover visible when viewed at an angle under bright light. These are nothing major and are not visible when viewed straight on. Without the tape residue the sleeve would grade a strong EX+.` No wear on edges, no ringwear or unwanted writing. An extremely crisp and fully readable spine. The back and inside are clean and blemish free. All in all a great condition sleeve.)
Labels: - NEAR MINT (One or two very faint spindle marks each side.)
This record seldom comes up for sale and even less so in this superb barely played condition. Dont miss your chance.
If you are not happy with your purchase I will fully refund any returned record as long as it comes back to me in the condition it was sent out.
GRADING ABBREV DESCRIPTION MINT M The record is as new. The cover and any inserts should be in perfect condition.Many Dealers do not use this classification as A record is unlikely to arrive through the post in truly mint condition. EXCELLENT
PLUS EX+ The record is near-mint, there is no damage or visible surface marking. Under Bright Light you may see fine lines on the record, caused by rubbing on the paper sleeve. Reserve this grade for records where you have difficulty spotting anything wrong.
The Cover and inserts are undamaged. EXCELLENT EX The record may show some signs of having been played, possibly with light surface marks or fingerprints but there is no appreciable lessening in sound quality.
The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. EXCELLENT
MINUS EX- There may be fairly visible surface markings under bright light but the sound quality of the record is not adversely affected.
The Cover and inserts may have noticeable light creasing or "foxing" due to dampness but they are all present and intact. VERY GOOD VG The record has obviously been played a lot, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality despite surface marks and some light scratches. Also Use this grading where the record has suffered perhaps one more visible scratch, but is otherwise in EX or better condition.
The cover may be creased a little and/or frayed at the opening. You should itemize any more serious damage such as tears.
I also use +/- if I feel a record comes between a grade
