THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE TAN LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THEY ARE RICH AND VIBRANT IN COLOUR AND THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. FINALLY THERE ARE JUST 1-2 TINY SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION AND HAS NOT LOST ANY OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. A BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY ALBUM SET . IN DAYLIGHT THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE ON THIS SPARKLING VINYL,AND THEY LOOK TOTALLY FLAWLESS AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES, AND ONE NON SOUNDING HAIRLINE HANDLING LINE
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 SET FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, IN THE FIRM BELIEF THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE 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
INCREDIBLE!!! THAT'S THE ONLY WAY TO DESCRIBE THE REPRODUCTION. SO MANY SILENT PASSAGES THAT PERFORM TO THE HIGHEST GRADE POSSIBLE
NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE
NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY THE ODD RANDOM SECOND OR TWO OF VERY LIGHT STATIC
THERE ARE A FEW RANDOM TINY DUST POPS, AND FOUR ROTATIONAL LITTLE TICS ON SIDE TWO ABOUT 2 MINUTES IN, BUT OTHER THAN THAT VERY SILENT ALL THE WAY THROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
ORIGINAL E.J DAY GATEFOLD SLEEVE.
THE FRONT SURFACE OF THIS SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION.THE EASILY RUBBED COLOURS ARE ALL THERE AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE OR COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER.
THERE IS JUST ONE SMALL LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINE. ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINE NEARS THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE ONLY LIGHTLY RUBBED WITH A FEW WHITE PATCHES AT THE CORNERS ONLY.
THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. HERE THE DELICATE BASE COLOUR HAS LIGHTLY RUBBED AT A COUPLE OF POINTS ON THE LEADING EDGES ONLY. THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE ALSO LIGHTLY RUBBED.
THE OPENING EDGES ARE STILL RAZOR SHARP AND AS NEW, AND CLEARLY SHOWS WHY THESE DISCS HAVE REMAINED VIRTUALLY UNPLAYED FOR ALL OF THESE YEARS. JUST A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN VIRTUALLY UNBLEMISHED CONDITION, ALL OF THE COLOUR IS PERFECT, JUST A SPECK OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM CORNER TIPS
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE FRONT OR BACK
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE PAIR OF PANELS.
THE BOOK IS UNTOUCHED AND IN MINT!!! CONDITION
THE HUGE POSTER IS ALSO IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. RAZOR SHARP FOLD LINES AND HAS CLEARLY NEVER BEEN NEAR A WALL
THE PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVES ARE IN UNSPLIT CONDITION, BUT HAVE VERY MILDLY BROWNED WITH AGE. BOTH ARE FLAT
THE ORIGINAL SLEEVE STICKER WAS REMOVED FROM THE FRONT AND PLACED ONTO ONE OF THE INNER SLEEVES
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE NEAR MINT, WITH A MINT POSTER AND BOOKLET
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
