THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE OLIVE GREEN ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND HAS NO MARKS OR STAINS AT ALL ON EITHER SIDE. THE SPINDLE HOLES ARE UNWORN, AND IN FACT AS I GENTLY PLACED IT ON MY TURNTABLE IT WAS VERY TIGHT.

I HAD TO GET A MAGNIFY ING GLASS OUT TO SPOT THE ONE MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINE SO CLOSE TO THE HOLE THAT IT REALLY IS SO DIFFICULT TO SPOT

THE VINYL

THE VINYL HAS RETAINED IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND IS QUITE MAGNIFICENT. GLEAMING LIKE A MIRROR, IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT, AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION, THERE IS NOTHING BUT A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES TO BE SEEN

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 LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS BECAUSE I JUST KNOW THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO LISTEN TO THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.

THE LP PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, WITHOUT ANY TRACE OF DISTORTION CAUSED THROUGH GROOVE WEAR. A STUNNING STEREO REPRODUCTION WITH NOTES BEING HEARD CRISPLY AND CLEANLY.

THE LP HAS SO MANY SILENT OR VERY QUIET PASSAGES THAT ANY SURFACE NOISE WOULD INSTANTLY BE DETECTED

THIS ALBUM HAS ONLY EVER HAD ONE OR TWO PLAYS FROM NEW PLUS MY VERY CAREFUL AND UNDETECTABLE TEST PLAY

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND NOT ONE JOT OF EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

A COUPLE OF RANDOM SPLIT SECONDS OF STATIC HERE AND THERE, AND I HEARD JUST TWO TINY DUST POPS ON SIDE TWO.

BUT IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN IMMACULATE COPY OF THIS LP THEN LOOK NO FURTHER. THIS IS A PRIZED GEM, AND I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS MINT MINUS!!!

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THIS SUPERB LP AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

UNLAMINATED SHOREPAK SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN.AND THE EASILY RUBBED COLOUR IS ALL THERE AND MARK FREE. THERE IS ONE TINY SPECK OF RUB TO THE TOP RIGHT CORNER, AND A SLIVER JUST ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, PLUS THE ORIGINAL OWNER NEATLY PENNED THREE DIGITS IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER IN BIRO

THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. AND ONLY ONE TINY LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THERE IS ONE VERY THIN LINE RUNNING PART OF THE WAY DOWN THE SLEEVE RIGHT NEXT TO THE SPINE

THE TOP EDGE IS VIRTUALLY UNBLEMISHED WITH JUST THE RIGHT CORNER TIP LIGHTLY RUBBED , AND A COUPLE OF TINY WHITE FLECKS HERE AND THERE

THE BOTTOM EDGE HOWEVER IS RUBBED ALL THE WAY FROM LEFT TO RIGHT WITH VERY LITTLE COLOUR LEFT

THE SPINE IS FLAT WITH ONE DENT IN THE SURFACE ABOUT HALFWAY ALONG. THE ONCE WHITE SURFACE IS NOW LIGHTLY SOILED, HOWEVER THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION. NO COLOUR LOSS AND NO SMALL LINES NEAR THE EDGES, JUST THAT THREE DIGIT PENNED NUMBER IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP

THE SET IS COMPLIMENT ED BY THE CORRECT AND ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE DIE CUT INNER SLEEVE.

THE INNER IS STILL SUPREMELY WHITE WITH A LITTLE AGEING AT THE BOTTOM  AND TOTALLY UNSPLIT.  WHERE IT HAS SAT FOR ALL THESE YEARS UNTOUCHED

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EXCELLENT PLUS

IT IS THAT GOOD

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