THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS IN ADDITION PRISTINE AND EVERY LETTER PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE SILVER LONDON LOGO IS TOTALLY IMMACULATE AND THERE ARE 4-5 SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL IS JUST SUPERB, GLEAMS LIKE A MIRROR AND IN DAYLIGHT IT JUST LOOKS FLAWLESS. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES AND A FEW VERY FINE ANGEL HAIRLINE HANDLING LINES
A SUPERB 54 YEAR OLD ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS IN STUNNING CONDITION
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 AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE TO HEAR THE RECORD 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 LP SOUNDS.
THE REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS WITH EVERY NOTE BEING CRISP AND CLEAR. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION TO ANY PART OF THIS SOUND WHICH IS QUITE INCREDIBLE WHEN YOU CONSIDER THE TYPE OF RECORD PLAYER THAT WAS BEING USED IN 1958. BUT DUE TO THE EXTREMELY LIMITED PLAY THIS ALBUM HAS RECEIVED IT IS AS CLEAR AS A BELL
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER
NO VINYL NOISE AND NO STATIC EITHER AT ANY POINT
WHAT YOU WILL HEAR IS THE VERY OCCASIONAL LITTLE DUST POP OR TIC, BUT MOST ARE WELL HIDDEN BEHIND THE POWERFUL LOUD MUSIC
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT
THE SLEEVE
ROBERT STACE SINGLE SLEEVE WITH A LAMINATED FRONT REAR SURFACE AND NON LAMINATED REAR SURFACE. THIS SLEEVE IS MADE FROM SERIOUSLY THIN CARD AND YET HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME SUPERBLY WELL. MOST I HAVE SEEN FROM THIS ERA ARE TORN OR HEAVILY CREASED
THE FRONT SURFACE JUST SPARKLES. IT HAS A VERY HIGHLY POLISHED FINISH TO THE SURFACE. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. NOR ARE THERE ANY BENDS. NOR ARE THERE ANY TEARS AT ALL INCREDIBLY THERE ARE JUST THREE MINUSCULE LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE. ONE ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES, AND CERTAINLY NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 99% STILL FULLY LAMINATED WITH JUST THE TIP ENDS LIGHTLY RUBBED
THE SPINE IS ACTUALLY JUST ANOTHER EDGE, AS IT IS TOTALLY FLAT LIKE THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGE AND DOESN'T HAVE ANY TYPEFACE ON IT. HAVING SAID THAT IT IS STILL IMMACULATE
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP AND CLEARLY SHOWS WHY THE LP HAS NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE
THE REAR SURFACE HAS THE TELL TALE STRIP OF LAMINATE COVERING THE FIRST HALF INCH NEXT TO THE SPINE, AND THE REST IS UNLAMINATED. STILL IN EXTREMELY CLEAN CONDITION WITH JUST A LITTLE HANDLING AND AGEING, BUT STILL VERY WHITE, WITH ALL OF THE BLACK TEXT IN PRISTINE UNRUBBED CONDITION
THE INNER SLEEVE IS THE ORIGINAL POLY LINED LONDON/DECCA INNER AND IS IN SUPERB UNSPLIT CONDITION. LIGHT CORNER CREASES AT THE BOTTOM AND A LITTLE RECORD SHAPE
HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT!!!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
