Vivid & vibrant with just a handful of well-aimed faint spindle trails around each unworn centre hole.

Visual: NEAR MINT

Pristine deep-gloss playing surface which are 'as new' and unmarked in strong daylight with just a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines consistent with inner-sleeve removal.

Sound Quality: MINT

This wonderful sounding copy has received just a few extremely careful plays on high-end equipment and plays flawlessly throughout.

A remarkably preserved example which apart from a small bump to the upper left corner is as it left the shops 43 years ago.

As good as these get.

Our grading is strict & conservative grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.

We carefully play every record I sell on an EMT 950 transcription turntable fitted with a 'TSD 15' cartridge at volume and list all visual and audible faults.

Every image in this listing has been taken by ourselves (with a Canon G12 camera) and are of the actual item for sale. We do not copy from other listings or use stock images.

Each record is professionally & securely packaged in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover.

For more information on our grading and packaging policies, take a look at my About Me page.
