THE INNER SLEEVE: is in excellent++ condition and is the original UK EMI / Capital, black and white advertising inner sleeve. The two opening edges are excellent and have remained clean and unworn. An excellent original inner sleeve made of the period quality 'heavy grade' of paper with a textured surface on the inside. A very clean, white well preserved and 'crease' free inner sleeve. Theres NO pen writing, tears, splits, stickers or sticker residue on the inner sleeve.

THE RECORD: side one is in excellent+ condition. Side two, there is a 'mark', see photo that runs over about half of track one that causes some 'ticks' of about one minute, so I will grade here as being in 'good' condition, otherwise the rest of side two is in excellent+ condition. The condition of the playing surfaces have been graded under normal 'daylight conditions'. The record has remained very dark and glossy.

The records 'factory engraved', matrix are: T1 2458 – 1 and T2 2458 - 1,

The records 'factory engraved', 'mother / stampers' are: ‘1 OM’ and ‘1 MT’.

THE AUDIO: side one plays very good++, side one plays with some 'crackle'. Side two, there is a 'mark', see photo that runs over about half of track one that causes some 'ticks' for about one minute, so I will grade here as being in 'good' condition, otherwise the rest of side two plays very good++, side two plays with some 'crackle'. The record plays with a full, loud period 'mono' sound. The record lays flat on the turntable.

THE RECORD LABELS: each of the record labels are in excellent+ condition. The letters ‘KT’ are embossed around the spindle hole on side one. Each of the record labels are free from any pen writing, stickers or sticker residue.

TO GRADE THE CONDITION OF THE RECORD I AM USING THE OFFICIAL GRADING SYSTEM FROM THE ‘RECORD COLLECTOR’ MAGAZINE.
