THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BACK AND SILVER LABELS ARE IN TOP CONDITION. THE JET BLACK BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND UNRUBBED, AND FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND AGAIN UNRUBBED. THERE IS JUST ONE REALLY SMALL SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THE VINYL IS IN SUPERB CONDITION, AND EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING HALO THERE IS NOTHING TO SEETHE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES. THE CLARITY OF THE REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEAR CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.
THERE IS CERTAINLY NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO CLICKS ANYWHERE. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT.
ALL I HEARD DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH WERE A COUPLE OF TINY SPECKS OF VERY LIGHT STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN A SILENT PASSAGE OR TWO
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
NO TICS OR POPS
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN PLAY GRADING THIS AUDIO MINT MINUS

THE SPINE HAS ALL OF THE ORIGINAL TYPEFACE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND IS ALSO UNWORN, AND IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. THE TOP TIP END HAS A SPECK OF RUB
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL VERY SHARP WITH A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS
