THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE BLUE AND RED LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. NOT ONE JOT OF COLOUR LOSS AOR ANY MARKS WHATSOEVER. THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, AND THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES AT ALL SURROUNDING THIS HOLE. AND THERE IS AVEN SOME RESIDUAL VINYL INSIDE THE SPINDLE HOLE. THE DISC WAS VERY VERY TIGHT OVER MY SPINDLE AND THE RESIDUE SHARDS SAT PROUD OF THE SPINDLE AS I PUSHED GENTLY TO GET THE LP TO LAY FLAT ON THE TURNTABLE. A SURE SIGN OF AN UNPLAYED DISC

THE VINYL

THE VINYL  GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS, NOT A MARK ON IT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE ON THIS MAGNIFICENT UNPLAYED VINYL

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 AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH MAGNIFICENTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.EVERYTHING IS THERE, RUN INS, LINKING GROOVES ETC

IT IS AN INCREDIBLE FIRST PRESS REPRODUCTION AND PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLES OR EVEN STATIC.

I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I DIN'T EVEN HEAR ANY DUST POPS AT ALL

TODAY I BELIEVE WAS THE FIRST IME THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN PLAYED EVER!!!

I CANNOT GIVE THIS IMPOSSIBLE VINYL ANY OTHER GRADE THAN MINT!!!

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND BE THE JUDGE

THE SLEEVE

I WANT TO START BY STATING THAT THERE CAN BE NO BETTER EXAMPLE OF THIS SLEEVE ANYWHERE ON THE PLANET!!!

FULLY LAMINATED EMI SLEEVE, WHICH HISTORICALLY IS FOUND WITH SEVERE CREASING TO IT, PARTICULALRLY DOWN THE SPINE AND PERIMETER EDGES DUE TO THE THIN NATURE OF THE CARD USED

THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THIS SLEEVE GRADES A FULL MINT!!!

THE FRONT SURFACE IS GLEAMING LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR, AND THERE ARE NO CREASE LINES AT ALL ANYWHERE ON ANY PART OF THE FRONT SURFACE. EVEN THE LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE ARE TOTALLY MISSING. IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS PRINTED AND MADE UP TODAY. WHAT IS CLEAR IS THAT IT HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PLASTIC COVER FROM NEW AND THIS IS THE REASON WHY IT IS IN SUCH MINT CONDITION. EVEN THE DIE CUT HOLE IS ABSOLUTELY UNBLEMISHED

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR, AND AGAIN THIS IS DUE TO THE ALBUM HAVING REMAINED INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE FROM NEW. THE SPINE WORDING ALSO APPEARS ON THE TOP EDGE

THE SPINE IS ALSO FULLY LAMINATED AND HAS NO LAMINATE PEEL OR FLAKE. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE SPINE IS ALSO TOTALLY FLAT AND IMMACULATE

THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS CLEAN AND MARK FREE AS THE FRONT. AGAIN NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS, IT JUST HAS TO GRADE MINT AGAIN!!!

ALSO WORTH A MENTION IS THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN ANY RECORD SHAPE ON THIS SLEEVE

THE INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION. MADE FROM A SEMI GLOSSY STIFF CARD, IT IS A TOTALLY UNSPLIT CONDITION WHICH IS QUITE HARD TO FIND WITHOUT THE BOTTOM SEAM EVEN SLIGHTLY SPLIT. THE TWO FLIPBACKS ARE BOTH COMPLETELY AS NEW, AND THERE IS NOT ONE CREASE TO ANY PART OF THE INNER, AND NO COLOUR LOSS EITHER. IT IS AS PRISTINE AS THE REST OF THE SLEEVE

THIS IS A SUPERB COLLECTIBLE COPY OF THIS MAGNIFICENT ALBUM, AND WILL NOT NEED UPGRADING EVER. IT IS INVESTMENT GRADE AND I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER THIS MINT SLEEVE

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