THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE MULTI COLOURED LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL CLEAR AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE ZERO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE BONUS LP HAS PURE WHITE LABELS AND THESE TOO ARE IMMACULATE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS. EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER SPOTLIGHTS THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE. A MINT RECORD.
THE BONUS LP IS IN THE SAME CONDITION WITH JUST ONE WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE UNDER LIGHTS
THE TEST PLAY
THE FIRST THING TO SAY ABOUT THIS VINYL IS THAT THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS. EACH NOTE IS HEARD VERY CLEARLY AND THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ALL THROUGHOUT ANY PART OF THE PLAY THROUGH. NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE
THIS DISC PLAYS TO NEAR PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO STATIC EITHER. THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
NO POPS OR TICS ANYWHERE
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS AUDIO MINT
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED EMBOSSED MATTE SINGLE SLEEVE
STILL IN THE ORIGINAL SHRINK WRAP WITH THE VIRGIN STORES HYPE STICKER ON THE FRONT, AND THE 'FREE ALBUM' HYPE STICKER UNDER THE SHRINK, ALL FIRMLY ATTACHED
THE FRONT SURFACE IS JUST SUPERB. FLAT AND CLEAN AND THE COLOURED SURFACE HAS LOST NONE OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR WHICH IS STILL RICH AND VIBRANT.
NO CREASES WHATSOEVER
THE SHRINK IS SPLIT NATURALLY AT THE OPENING EDGE, AND BUT THAT IS ALL
TIGHT BUT NOT TIGHT ENOUGH TO BEND THE SLEEVE
NO RINGWEAR OR RECORD SHAPE AND THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THERE ARE NO PRESSURE LINES ON THE SPINE. NONE ON THE TOP EDGE, AND NONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGE HAS ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS A LITTLE RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER
THE SPINE IS 100% FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. PRISTINE COLOUR AND TYPEFACE. UNBLEMISHED END TIPS.
THE OPENING EDGE IS SHARP AND SHOWS WHY THIS LP HAS REMAINED IN THE BARELY PLAYED STATE THAT IT IS. JUST A COUPLE OF TINY THUMB NAIL NICKS AT THE VERY TOP
THE REAR SURFACE IS IMMACULATE. EVERY BIT AS PERFECT AS THE FRONT
THE LYRIC INSERT SHEET IS IN MINT CONDITION
THE MERCHANDISE FLYER IS ALSO MINT
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
