THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE ORANGE VERTIGO LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. A SOLID BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. FULLY RUNNING UNINTERRUPTED INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND WHITE LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE IS JUST ONE TINY SPIDER LINE AROUND THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE. APART FORM A FEW WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL LINES
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. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY A SPECK OF STATIC IN BETWEEN A FEW OF LINKING GROOVES, AND MOST SILENT PASSAGES
I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY MORE THAN 2-3 TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS NEAR MINT !!!
PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
SEMI LAMINATED PHONOGRAM SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES.THE SHEEN IS JUST MAGNIFICENT AND LOOKS SUPERB.
THE COLOUR IS ALSO IN PRISTINE UNRUBBED CONDITION, AND THIS IS PRETTY UNUSUAL FOR THIS SLEEVE
THERE ARE JUST THREE TINY LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE , ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THERE IS NO RING WEAR AND NO RECORD SHAPE EITHER
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH IN MINT MINUS CONDITION WITH ALL OF THE DELICATE MULTI COLOURED SURFACE FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, AND EVEN THE TIPS REMAIN UNRUBBED APART FROM THE BOTTOM RIGHT WHICH HAS A SPECK OF RUBBING
THE SPINE IS 100% FLAT AND TOTALLY UNSQUASHED.THE RED TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE AND PRISTINE. THERE ARE A FEW WHITE FLECKS VISIBLE ON THE LEADING EDGES
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND CLEARLY SHOWS THAT THE LP HAS NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES
THE REAR SURFACE IS MINT
THE PICTURE INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ONE FOR THIS FIRST PRESS AND IS PRISTINE. FLAT , UNSPLIT AND FREE FROM ANY MARKS
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS !!!
