THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE SUPERB MOUNTAIN LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE RICH AND VIBRANT BASE COLOURS FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, AND ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS BOTH UNRUBBED AND CLEAR AND LEGIBLE. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION I AM ABLE TO MAKE OUT 1-2 MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES
THE VINYL
THIS COPY IS IN SUPERB CONDITION. STILL RETAINS ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE, AND GLEAMS LIKE NEW.IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS . WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION I SEE A SWIRLY SUPERFICIAL WISPY HAIRLINE PATTERN ON SIDE ONE ONLY WHICH ARE TOTALLY NON SOUNDING SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL WISPS
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 FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS. THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS MAGNIFICENT AND SHOWS OFF THE POWER THAT THIS BAND GENERATES.THE VINYL PLAYS WITH A VERY LOUD AND CLEAR REPRODUCTION. NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AND NO VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER
THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER
THE ONLY STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND I HEARD WAS A TINY SPECK IN THE DEAD WAX AT THE START OF EACH SIDE AND IN ONE LINKING GROOVE
NO MORE THAN ONE TINY DUST POP THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS!!!!
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
SEMI LAMINATED ROBOR SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NOT SUFFERED THE USUAL RING WEAR FOUND ON THIS COVER. THE BOTTOM TWO CORNERS HAVE DINGS TO THEM WHERE THERE IS A CREASE LINE ACROSS BOTH TIPS. THERE IS ALSO A TIN SPECK IN THE TOP RIGHT AREA WHERE THE ORIGINAL PRICE STICKER HAS BEEN REMOVED AND TAKEN THREE SMALL SPECKS OF TOP COAT AWAY.
THERE ARE JUST TWO LINES NEAR THE BOTTOM OF THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ON THE CORNERS ON THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH LIGHTLY SHELF WORN WITH SOME WHITE PATCHES ALONG BOTH EDGES
THE SPINE HAS SUFFERED SOME SHELF WEAR TO BOTH LEADING EDGES WITH SOME SMALL CHIPS TO THE SURFACE AT THE LEADING EDGE POINTS AS WELL
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THE LP HAS NOT BEEN OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE , NOT EVEN ANY THUMB NAIL NICKS ALONG THE EDGES
THE REAR SURFACE, IS RAZOR SHARP IDENTIFYING THAT THE LP HAS NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE MUCH
THE REAR SURFACE IS SIMILAR TO THE FRONT WITH LIGHT WEAR TO THE BOTTOM CORNERS, AND A FEW LINES ON THE SPINE
THE ORIGINAL CARD PICTURE INNER SLEEVE IS IN EXCEPTIONAL MINT UNSPLIT CONDITION. NOT ONE WRINKLE OR CREASE LINES, FURTHER PROOF THAT THE LP HASN'T BEEN HANDLED
THE ORIGINAL FAN CLUB INSERT SHEET IS ALSO IN MINT UNCREASED CONDITION. SHOWING ALL OF THE BACK CATALOGUE ON ONE SIDE, THE OTHER HAS SIX ITEMS FOR SALE FROM THE 1979 NO MEAN CITY WORLD TOUR, T-SHIRTS ETC, PLUS AN INVITATION TO JOIN THE FAN CLUB,
I AM PERFECTLY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EXCELLENT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
