THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE JET  LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THERE IS NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM ANYWHERE. NO LOSS OF COLOUR, AND THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, AND ONLY WHEN EXAMINED UNDER LIGHT CAN I BARELY MAKE OUT TWO VERY FAINT SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THE  VINYL IS IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION. THE DISC GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND HAS LOST NONE OF IT'S ORIGINAL LUSTRE

THERE ARE NO MARKS TO BE SEEN IN DAYLIGHT, AND ONLY WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE A FEW LIGHT AND WISPY HAIRLINES /  SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL LINES PLUS ONE NON SOUNDING HANDLING LINE ACROSS TRACK ONE SIDE TWO

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 ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I AM NOW DOING WITH ALL MY LISTINGS. I AM CERTAIN THAT ANY BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE CHANCE TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD THEY ARE THINKING OF BIDDING ON AND I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER THIS SERVICE FOR MY CUSTOMERS.

THIS FIRST PRESS ALBUM PERFORMS MAGNIFICENTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES. THE MOST OBVIOUS THING WHEN HEARING IT FOR THE FIRST TIME IS THE CLARITY AND LOUDNESS OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION. IT IS  JUST SUPERB. EVERY NOTE HEARD AS IT WAS INTENDED

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER MEANING THAT THE COUPLE OF PLAYS THAT THE LP HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED WITH A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS

NO HEAVY CRACKLING OR CLICKS EITHER

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AT ALL AND ONLY THE VERY OCCASIONAL SECOND OF STATIC HEARD IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND ONCE ON SIDE TWO

I HEARD NO MORE THAN TWO MINUSCULE DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO LISTEN TO THE ALBUM AND JUDGE THE QUALITY FOR YOURSELF

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AS MINT MINUS

THE SLEEVE

SEMI LAMINATED  GATEFOLD SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION. NONE OF THE COLOURS HAVE RUBBED AND THEY ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT. THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE AND BARELY VISIBLE SLIVER OF WHITE JUST ON THE TOP EDGE IN THE LEFT CORNER

THERE IS ONE MINUSCULE LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP EDGE HAS A COUPLE OF WHITE SPECKS ON THE PURPLE SURFACE BUT IS OTHERWISE FULLY COLOURED ALL THE WAY FROM CORNER TO CORNER. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS ALSO IMMACULATE WITH JUST A SPECK OF VERY LIGHT RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER TIP

THE SPINE IS ALSO IN  NEAR MINT CONDITION. AGAIN ITS AMAZING THAT THE SURFACE HAS REMAINED UNRUBBED, AND HERE ALL OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. ONE SPECK OF RUB TO THE TOP TIP AND ONE WHITE DOT ON THE BOTTOM LEADING EDGE

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND SHOWS HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE.

THE REAR SURFACE IS ONCE AGAIN IN STUNNING RUB FREE CONDITION. NO LINES AGAINST ANY OF THE PERIMETER EDGES

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO  PERFECT INNER PANELS

THE ORIGINAL PAPER LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS PRESENT AND IN  MINT CONDITION, FLAT, UNCREASED, AND UNSPLIT, WITH A PRISTINE THUMB NOTCH ALONG THE TOP EDGE

THE FULL SET OF EIGHT POSTCARDS  ARE ALSO IN MINT CONDITION. STILL ALL ATTACHED AND UNMARKED

THE 2 PAGE MERCHANDISE FLYER IS LIKEWISE IN MINT CONDITION

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE A STUNNING MINT MINUS

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
