Description
Not so much large swirl as the only swirl issue I believe!
Yet another record which has been in my collections for yonks. I pulled out the vinyls in their inner sleeves and was surprised by the sharpness, cleanliness and fresh feel of all. The photos illustrate this also. I looked at the plastic by both room light and diffuse daylight at a large window. They looked mint and you would agree if you were looking at them in a shop or at a record fair. Forget car boots, it's a lottery! The labels particularly show very little evidence of play. However, over to the unforgiving desk light for the ultimate judgement. What emerges are scuff and faint hairlines due essentially to handling and the insertion and removal of the discs over time. So I have to rate both 8 /10 for condition.
At nearly 50 years old the inner sleeves are some of the best Vertigo examples I've seen. Has creasing of course and glue browning but pretty nifty nevertheless.
The gatefold sleeve is a nice solid, intact example. Comes with the archetypal 'changeover' price sticker. The spine is good. Rubwear on the corners and bottom edge of the front cover so overall another 8/10 rating.
As usual 99p auction start and free postage in the UK.
