THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE PLAIN WHITE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION.
THERE IS NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THE BLACK TEXT IS ALSO IN PERFECT CONDITION
THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWS 2-3 SPIDER LINES, AND I HAVE EXAMINED IT USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY MINT.
EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A FEW SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES
BEAUTIFUL LOOKING RECORD
PLAYING THE RECORD
THIS VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER
SO NO GROOVE WEAR
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
A CLEAR , AND LOUD STEREO REPRODUCTION
THERE IS A TINY SPECK OF STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND ON SIDE A HEARD ONLY DURING A FEW OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES
A FRACTION MORE AT THE START OF SIDE B BUT THEN RETURNS TO NEAR PERFECT
AN OUTSTANDING LISTEN. NO POPS OR TICS
THE LP JUST HASN'T BEEN PLAYED MUCH AND HAS A REMARKABLE AUDIO PERFORMANCE AND I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO NEAR MINT / EX+
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED SLIGHTLY TEXTURED COMIC BOOK STYLE SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. NO WRITING AND NO CREASES
THE COLOURS ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE AND THE FOUR CORNERS HAVE A TINY SPECK OF RUB TO THE TIP ENDS
THERE ARE TWO SMALL PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE , AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP EDGE HAS ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING ACROSS FROM CORNER TO CORNER, UNBLEMISHED CORNER TIPS
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS A LITTLE RUB TO THE CORNERS
THE SPINE IHAS A COUPLE OF VERY LIGHT FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSIONS. PRISTINE TYPEFACE AND UNBLEMISHED TIP ENDS
