THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE PICTURE LABELS ARE JUST MAGNIFICENT. DEEP RICH COLOURS THAT ARE FREE FROM ANY BLEMISHES. NO MARKS OR STAINS AND NO SIGNS OF HANDLING WHATSOEVER.

NO RUBBING TO THE TYPEFACE OR LOGO'S

THERE IS JUST ONE TINY SPIDER LINE AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW OFTEN THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL IS ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE!! NOT A BLEMISH ON IT. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS AND EXACTLY THE SAME CAN BE SAID ABOUT IT WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION.I DON'T SEE ANY WISPY HAIRLINES WHATSOEVER.

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.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.

NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS

NO VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER, AND NO STATIC EITHER

I HEARD NO DUST POPS OR STATIC TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

THIS VIRTUALLY UN-PLAYED ALBUM HAS THE SECOND HIGHEST GRADE POSSIBLE OF MINT!

BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

UNLAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY VERY CLEAN AND IMPORTANTLY HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS.

THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES WHATSOEVER ON THE SURFACE AND NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE

ALL OF THE DELICATE COLOURING IS THERE AND THERE HAS BEEN NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE, APART FROM A SINGLE PIN PRICK OF WHITE SHOWING ON THE TOP LEFT CORNER TIP

THERE ARE ZERO PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. NONE ON THE TOP EDGE, NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES BY THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP EDGES ARE MINT. PERFECT BLUE SURFACE ALL THE WAY ALONG BOTH PARTS

THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IDENTICAL WITH ONE TINY SPECK OF WHITE SHOWING ON THE FRONT RIGHT CORNER TIP

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS NO RUBBING TO THE COLOUR OR TYPEFACE AND ONLY THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIP ENDS HAVE A PIN PRICK OF WHITE SHOWING

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME CONDITION AS THE FRONT. TWO TINY PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS AN ABSOLUTE PRISTINE PAIR OF INNER PANELS.

THE PLAIN INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM IT HAS BROWNED WITH AGE ALONG THE EDGES AND HAS ONE CORNER CREASED.ONE OF THE SIDES HAS SPLIT

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE MINT! MINUS!!

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