Powered by eCommercePlayer.com Powered by eCommercePlayer.com Powered by eCommercePlayer.comTHE LABELS
THE LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. NO MARKS, STICKER RESIDUE OR WRITING, AND THE DEEP RICH COLOUR FULLY RUNS INTO THE INBLEMISHED SPINDLE HOLE
PARTICULARLY THE WHITE SIDE WHICH IS AS CLEAN AND BRIGHT AS WHEN NEW
THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF SPIDER LINES BY THE HOLE
THE RECORD
SUPERB HEAVYWEIGHT GLOSSY VINYL THAT IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS
UNDER SPOTLIGHTS THE RECORD LOOKS SUPERB AS WELL. ONE OR TWO WISPY HAIRLINES AND A SMALL HANDLING LINE/MARK ON THE FINAL TRACK OF SIDE TWO (NON SOUNDING)
PLAYING THE RECORD
THIS ALBUM PLAYS SUPERBLY THOUGH BOTH SIDES
THE AUDIO IS JUST OUTSTANDING. CLEAR AND CLINICAL - A GENUINE FIRST PRESS SOUND
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE
NO CLICKS, SKIPS OR JUMPS
NEAR SILENT LINKING GROOVES THAT HAVE NO MORE THAN THE ODD SEMI SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN ONE OR TWO OF THEM
A COUPLE OF SMALL SPECKS OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND AND A COUPLE OF DUST POPS WERE ALL I HEARD DURING THE PLAY
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO NEAR MINT
FORTUNATELY YOU DON'T HAVE TO JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED GATEFOLD
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS SUPERB DEER RICH INKS THAT SHOW NO RUBBING AT ALL. NONE OF THAT GREEN UNDERCARD SHOWING THAT IS OFTEN VISIBLE ON THESE VERTIGO SLEEVES
THE TWO LEFT CORNERS HAVE A LITTLE RUB
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE JUST THREE MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. FOUR ALONG THE TOP EDGE. ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND ZERO THUMB LINES BY THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP EDGES HAVE SOME SHELF RUB AS DO THE BOTTOM EDGES
THE SPINE FLAT AND FREE FROM SQUASHING. THE TOP AND BOTTOM ENDS HAVE RUBBING AND THERE ARE A FEW FLECKS OF UNDERCARD SHOWING ON THE LEADING EDGES
THE OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP WITH JUST LIGHT FEATHERING
THE REAR SURFACE HAS THE SAME RICH COLOURING AS THE FRONT. THE LETTER H HAS BEEN WRITTEN IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER IN BLACK
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO VERY CLEAN INNER PANELS
THE SPIRAL DIE CUT INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT, HAS NO SEAM SPLITS OR WRITING, JUST SOME GLUE AGEING
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX+
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
