MINT MINUS SLEEVE
AN OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE OF THIS RARE 1ST PRESS
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE PINK RIM ISLAND LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. A SOLID WHITE BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND WHITE LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE ARE NO VISIBLE SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFIED LED HALO I CAN SEE ONE VERY TINY SCRATCH ON THE LAST TRACK SIDE ONE, AND A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE, AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
I DIDN'T HEAR ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH OTHER THAN ON THE LAST TRACK SIDE ONE WHERE THERE IS A VERY TINY MARK WHICH CAUSES FOUR ROTATIONAL LITTLE TICS
THESE FOUR LITTLE TICS AND A COUPLE OF RANDOM ONES ON SIDE TWO ARE THE ONLY BLEMISHES ON AN OTHERWISE SUPERB VINYL
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS NEAR MINT
PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED MATTE GATEFOLD SLEEVE FROM TINSLEY ROBOR
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES.ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR IS THERE WITH JUST A COUPLE OF PIN PRICK WHITE DOTS JUST OVER THE BOTTOM EDGE

THE FOUR CORNRES ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THE TOP EDGES ALL OF THE BROWN COLOUR THERE APART FROM A PIN PRICK OF WHITE ON THE REAR RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS A FEW FLECKS OF WHITE AND A LITTLE RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIPS
THE SPINE IS IN FLAT AND UNSQUASHED CONDITION, AGAIN ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM WITH THE TIPS RAMAINING UNBLEMISHED. THE YELLOW TYPEFACE IS IMMACULATE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS AS PRISTINE AS THE FRONT
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO PERFECT INNER PANELS.
THE BLUE POLY LINED INNER HAS NO SEAM SPLITS OR CREASES JUST A SHADE OF AGEING TO ONE EDGE
