THE SLEEVE

THE SUPERBLY ILLUSTRATED, ELABORATE, DIE-CUT SLEEVE, WITH FULLY FUNCTIONING ROTATING WHEEL IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THERE IS SOME TANNING. THERE IS SOME LIGHT WEAR AND THERE ARE FEW TINY MARKS IN THE LAMINATION. THERE IS ONE SMALL STAIN ON THE FRONT NEAR THE RIGHT-HAND EDGE AND THERE IS A NUMERIC INSCRIPTION INSIDE THE OPENING. THE EDGES AND CORNERS ARE ALL NICE AND STRAIGHT AND THE TEXT ON THE NICE WIDE SPINE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE WHEEL WORKS PERFECTLY.

THE track listing IS on THE RIGHT-hand side INSIDE THE GATEFOLD and IT STATES “PRINTED AND MADE BY E. J. DAY GROUP LONDON AND BEDFORD”. THE FRONT COVER HAS A TURQUOISE COLOURED ATLANTIC DELUXE LOGO. THIS IS A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF THIS ELABORATE SLEEVE.

THE INNER SLEEVE

THE RECORD IS PROTECTED BY IT’S ORIGINAL POLY-LINED Inner Sleeve that has THE warning message “KEEP THIS BAG AWAY FROM BABIES AND CHILDREN'' at the bottom of ONE SIDE. THIS SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH SOME LIGHT WEAR, TANNING AND CREASING.

THE VINYL

THE HEAVY, GLOSSY BLACK VINYL IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT I CAN SEE PLENTY OF LIGHT MARKS & SCUFFS. I HAVE FULLY PLAYED BOTH SIDES OF THIS SUPERB ALBUM AND I CAN CONFIRM THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS GENERALLY VERY GOOD THROUGHOUT. I NOTED FAIRLY PERSISTENT LIGHT SURFACE NOISE AND THE ODD CLICK & TICK.

THE LABELS

THE ORIGINAL RED & PLUM ATLANTIC LABELS ARE BOTH IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH SOME SPINDLE MARKS AND A FADED SCRIBBLED PATTERN INSCRIBED ON THE SIDE ONE LABEL.
