THE RECORDS<

THE LABELS

THE ORIGINAL STEAMBOAT TRICOLOUR LABELS ARE IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION. THE COLOURS ARE UNFADED OR UNRUBBED, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE COLOURS STRECTH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.

THERE ARE JUST TWO REALLY TINY SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING JUST WHY THIS ALBUM IS IN THE SUPERB CONDITION THAT IT IS

THE VINYL

THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND IS CLEAR BY LOOKING AT IT THAT IT HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED.THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OF ANY DESCRIPTION, AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UPTO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE , JUST A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES ON EACH SIDE. A PRISTINE ROCK SOLID VERY HEAVY DISC

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 WHOLE LP FROM START TO FINISH SO YOU CAN TAKE A LISTEN BEFORE DECIDING IF YOU WANT TO BID

A TRUE FIRST PRESS PERFORMANCE WITH A BRILLIANT LOUD CUT MONO REPRODUCTION . NEAR SILENT RUN IN'S AND LINKING GROOVES LEADING TO PERFECT SOUND PLAYED WITHOUT DISTORTION THUS NO GROOVE WEAR. 

VINYL THAT WAS AS HEAVY AS THIS WAS OFTEN POORER QUALITY THAT SAY THE VINYL THAT EMI USED FOR THEIR ALBUMS. A CASE IN POINT IS THE EARLY ISLAND PRESSES ON THE PINK EYE LABEL. THIS ONE IS NO DIFFERENT, AND REPRODUCES AN ABSOLUTE SMIDGEN OF VERY LIGHT STATIC LIKE VINYL NOISE HEARD ONLY DURING THE LINKING GROOVES AND SOME OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES.

NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLES, AND NO LOUD POPS EITHER

I HEARD JUST HALF A DOZEN LITTLE DUST POPS / STATIC TICS DURING THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

THE LP PLAYS MAGNIFICENTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH AND WOULD GRACE ANY COLLECTION

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT

THE SLEEVE

LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE AND NON LAMINATED REAR SURFACE GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND THE LAMINATE SHINES LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. 

ON THIS ONE THERE IS JUST FOUR SMALL LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE AND ONE SMALL THUMB SIZED SPECK OF LAMINATE LIFT IN THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER.

FIVE SMALL LINES ALONG THE TOP EDGE, FOUR ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE AND TWO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP EDGE IS FULLY LAMINATED WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB TO THE CORNER TIP ENDS. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS SIMILAR WITH A LITTLE MORE RUB TO THE CORNER TIPS THAN THE TOP

THE SPINE HAS THE CORRECT ATPERED ENDS FOR THIS ISSUE. THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIP ENDS DO HAVE THAT LITTLE BIT OF RUB, AND THERE ARE A COUPLE OF VERY LIGHT FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSIONS ON THE LEADING EDGES. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL VERY SHARP WITH A FEW SMALL SPECKS OF BURRING

THE REAR SURFACE HAS PERFECTLY ADHERED FLIPBACKS. THERE ARE A FEW LAMINATE LINES ON THEM. THE UNLAMINATED PICTURE IS IN SUPER ORIGINAL CONDITION. NO RINGWEAR OR RECORD SHAPE AND NO RUBBING

THE SPINE IS ALSO IMMACULATE. FLAT AND HAS ALL OF THE LAMINATE PERFECTLY INTACT. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRSTINE

THE PICTURE INSERT IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION

THIS SLEEVE WITHOUT A DOUBT GRADES EXCELLENT PLUS

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