CONDITION
Disc
Labels: MINT
A perfect pair with no spindle marks or wear to either centre hole.
Visual: EXCELLENT +
Pristine, deep-gloss playing surfaces which retain all of their 'as new' deep-gloss shine and apart from a 1.5cm non-feelable scuff on side 2 are unmarked in strong daylight. Some harmless wispy paper hairlines are visible directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp but both sides lie 100% flat on the turntable when playing.
Sound Quality: NEAR MINT
This well recorded, barely played copy sounds superb with no trace of any groove/play wear or any clicks, pops, ticks or other audible distractions whatsoever.
Cover: EXCELLENT +
A fine clean & strong example which retains its high-gloss laminate inside and out with just a hint of shelfwear to the lower edge but no significant or major signs of wear througout.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT +
Clean & flat with just a few soft handling wrinkles, but no writing, tears or seam splits.
