THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
ORIGINAL YELLOW AND BLACK MONO LABELS IN INCREDIBLE CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR AND YELLOW LOGO'S ARE BOTH UNRUBBED .THE COLOURS RUN UNINTERRUPTED INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, WHICH HAS JUST A FEW TINY SPIDER LINES AROUND IT, SHOWING JUST WHY THIS SUPERB VINYL HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED IN THE LAST 56 YEARS!!!!
THE VINYL
THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISC LOOKS AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT CAME OUT OF THE PRESS. IT HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN. IN DAYLIGHT THERE IS NOT A MARK ON IT,AND IT LOOKS FLAWLESS.
UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE AND ONE MINUSCULE SURFACE PAPER SCUFF, BUT PLEASE PLAY THE AUDIO AND YOU WILL HEAR JUST NOW BRILLIANT THIS SOUNDS
PLAYING THE RECORD
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 NOW DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME 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
THIS MONO ALBUM PLAYS TO NEAR PERFECTION. THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING TO TALK ABOUT IS THE COMPLETE CLARITY OF THE REPRODUCTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND THE SOUND IS AS CLEAR AND SHARP AS IT POSSIBLE COULD BE.
THE EARLY MONO BEATLES RECORDINGS WERE ALL JUST INCREDIBLE.
MANY MANY COPIES WERE PLAYED ON SYSTEMS THAT HAD A STYLUS THAT WAS TOO HEAVY OR WORN AND CAUSED INVISIBLE GROOVE WEAR. THIS WOULD ONLY BE SPOTTED OR SHOULD I SAY HEARD WHEN PLAYING THE ALBUM AND WOULD TAKE THE FORM OF BEHIND THE MUSIC STATIC AND BE CONTINUOUS. THIS VINYL IS OUTSTANDING IN THAT RESPECT
GENTLY LOWERING THE STYLUS ONTO THE RUN IN GROOVE ALL YOU HEAR IS NEAR SILENCE. NO CRACKLES ANYWHERE, AND THIS INCREDIBLE STANDARD IS MAINTAINED ALL THROUGH BOTH SIDES.
THE RUN IN IS NEAR SILENT, THE LINKING GROOVES ARE NEAR SILENT, AND THE RUN OUT IS NEAR SILENT
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT. JUST THE OCCASIONAL SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND
NO CLICKS OR DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LONG LISTEN AND YOU BE THE JUDGE!
I JUST HAVE TO GRADE THIS INCREDIBLE ALBUM NEAR MINT
THE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS A GLOSSY LAMINATE THAT GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THIS SLEEVE IS OFTEN FOUND YELLOWED WITH AGE, BUT THIS ONE IS STILL VERY WHITE WITH JUST A SHADE OF YELLOWING ALONG THE EDGES
THERE IS NOT ONE CREASE, OR CREASE LINE ANYWHERE ON THE SURFACE, AND NO LAMINATE PEEL, LIFT OR FLAKE
FOUR REALLY SMALL LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE
NONE ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES. THIS IS UNHEARD OF!
NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE, AND NO RINGWEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY WEAR AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT. THE LAMINATE RUNS UNBLEMISHED FROM CORNER TO CORNER, WITH ONLY A TINY SPECK OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE SPINE IS ALSO IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. THIS SPINE IS COMPLETELY LAMINATED EVEN THE VERY TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS ARE 100% UNRUBBED.
THE TEXT IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE ONLY HAS A VERY MILD ROUGNESS TO PARTS OF IT AND IS STILL SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE ALSO IN THE SAME MAGNIFICENT CONDITION AS THE FRONT, AND INCREDIBLY NO RING WEAR, AND NOT EVEN ANY SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE NO MATTER HOW MUCH I ANGLE IT INTO A STRONG LIGHT
THERE IS JUST NO AGEING OR HANDLING TO THE MAIN BODY OF THIS POROUS SURFACE . JUST A LIGHT SHADOW OF BROWNING TO THE VERY EDGES
ALL OF THE FLIPBACKS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION
THE ORIGINAL RICE PAPER LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION.BARELY A WRINKLE AND TOTALLY UNSPLIT, SHOWING SOME LIGHT AGEING
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT !!!! IT REALLY IS THAT GOOD
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
