Description

Nick Drake - Fruit Tree - 4LP Box set - Hannibal HNBX 5302

Disc 1: Five Leaves Left
Disc 2: Time of No Reply
Disc 3: Bryter Layter
Disc 4: Pink Moon

Leaflet : EX - Near fine, clean some signs of light handling towards fore-edge.

Vinyl : All four discs are brilliantly glossy, showing a very small number of those very fine hairline sleeve marks. Although side one of Five Leaves Left has a 6mm non-sounding surface mark.

Labels : Pristine with not even the feintest of spindle trails in sight.

Box: VG - Box is sturdy, yet it's fragile quality does shows some signs of wear to corners, as well as splitting to three of them. Also there is some print rub towards upper right corner - brought about presumably from price label removal. The back has a patch of light paint specs, and there is age-browning to the inner cloth hinge.

Over the next few months I will be auctioning off my late father's record collection, which, among other genres, consist mostly of classical music. All records are from quality labels, such as Decca, HMV, Columbia, Deutch Grammophone, etc. and are mostly in excellent condition. I do not clean or play the records, though I do use a truth-revealing bright light to reveal any likely-looking audible flaws. If any are found, a description is provided after a test-play of the relevant side. I will also test-play records on request if required. If on visual inspection no likely-looking audible flaws are found, the side generally very clear, glossy and at least little used in appearance, I will grade that side as EX or NM. However, with such grades, please bear in mind there may still be a few noticeable isolated 'ticks' or 'pops' here and there, and/or occasional mild surface noise. Although these records appear clean, I advise the purchaser to give their purchases a good clean. For test-playing, a Pioneer PL-L1000 turntable fitted with a Denon DL-160 cartridge is used.

Packaging: records wrapped and sent within thick, sturdy double-walled card arranged at cross-grain to one another for maximum rigidity - I will never use those flimsy mailers made out of thin card. Corners of package will also be rigid and well clear of corners of outer sleeve.
