THE SLEEVE

THE FRONT LAMINATED, ERNEST J. DAY PICTURE SLEEVE IS IN VERY STRONG EXCELLENT CONDITION. ON THE LAMINATED FRONT THERE IS SOME VERY SLIGHT WEAR AND SOME TINY WRINKLES. THERE IS SOME MINOR CREASE MARKS AROUND THE BOTTOM LEFT HAND CORNER. THE MATT FINISHED BACK LOOKS FABULOUS AS WELL WITH JUST A HINT OF SOME WEAR AND A FEW TINY WRINKLES. THE EDGES, CORNERS AND THE SPINE ARE ALL ABSOLUTELY PERFECT - NO SCUFFS AND NO MARKS AT ALL. THE SPINE IS 100% LEGIBLE. THE EDGES AND SPINE ARE ALL COMPLETELY STRAIGHT AND UNBROKEN. THIS IS THE NICEST EXAMPLE OF THIS SLEEVE I HAVE EVER SEEN!! 

THE VINYL

VISUALLY THE VERY HEAVY BLACK VINYL APPEARS TO BE IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION. UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT I CAN ONLY SEE A FEW TINY MARKS AND A COUPLE OF SCUFF MARKS ON SIDE TWO. THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT’S ORIGINAL GLOSS AND LOOKS FANTASTIC. I HAVE PLAYED THIS CLASSIC ALBUM IN IT’S ENTIRETY AND I CAN REPORT THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPERB. I DETECTED ONE VERY MINOR TICK DURING THE RUN-IN RIGHT AT THE START OF SIDE TWO. I ALSO NOTED 4 OR 5 SLIGHT REPEATING TICKS TOWARDS THE END OF TRACK 3 ON SIDE TWO. I DETECTED NO PROBLEMS THROUGHOUT SIDE ONE. 

THE LABEL

THE BLACK & SILVER TRACK LABELS ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION WITH JUST A FEW TINY SPIDERY SPINDLE MARKS PER LABEL.
