THE SLEEVE
THE FRONT LAMINATED ERNEST J. DAY & CO SLEEVE, WITH THREE REAR FLIP-BACKS, IS IN VERY STRONG EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE FRONT DISPLAYS THE SLIGHTEST OF RING WARE AND THERE ARE A FEW TINY MARKS WHICH CAN ONLY BE SEEN WHEN THE SLEEV IS TILTED TO CATCH THE LIGHT. THERE IS JUST THE LIGHTEST DISCOLOURATION TO THE REAR. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF ANY CREASING NOR ARE THERE ANY WRINKLES IN THE FRONT LAMINATION. THERE IS THE SLIGHTEST AMOUNT OF RUBBING POSSIBLE TO TWO OF THE CORNERS. THE SPINE AND THE THREE OTHER EDGES ARE ALL SUPERB - CRISP AND STRAIGHT AND UNBROKEN. THE TEXT ON THE SPINE IS PERFECT AND THIS ALBUM WILL LOOK FANTASTIC ON YOUR RACK. YOU WILL BE HARD-PUSHED TO FIND A MUCH BETTER LOOKING SLEEVE.
THE INNER SLEEVE
THE ORIGINAL TRACING-PAPER LINED “EMITEX” INNER SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH SOME LIGHT WARE, A COUPLE OF CREASES AND SOME DISCOLOURATION.
THE VINYL
VISUALLY THIS BEAUTIFUL HEAVY BLACK VINYL APPEARS TO BE IN A STRONG EXCELLENT CONDITION AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT I CAN ONLY SEE LIGHT MARKS. I HAVE JUST FINISHED LISTENING TO THIS ALBUM AND I CAN CONFIRM THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPERB THROUGHOUT WITH NO CLICKS OR POPS OR ANY OTHER SIGNIFICANT INTERFERENCE.
THE LABELS
THE YELLOW & BLACK PARLOPHONE LABELS ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH A FEW LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS. THERE IS NO SPINDLE WEAR AND IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN VERY WELL LOOKED AFTER AND NOT EXCESSIVELY PLAYED.
Grading:
MINT: Brand new condition, no surface marks no deterioration in sound, all paperwork should be in perfect condition
Excellent: The Record shows some signs of being played, there is very little lessening of sound quality. The packaging may have very slight signs of wear and /or creasing.
Very Good: The Record has been played a number of times, but there is no major deterioration in sound quality, despite slight surface marks and the occasional light scratch.
Good; The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps some mild scratches. The cover suffers from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits and discoloration.
Fair: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise. It may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
I add a plus or minus when the item is somewhere between two grades
