THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

ORIGINAL YELLOW AND BLACK MONO LABELS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR AND YELLOW LOGO'S ARE BOTH UNRUBBED . THE SILVER TEXT IS ALSO IN PERFECTLY LEGIBLE CONDITION, AND THE SPINDLE HOLE IS UNWORN. THERE ARE 6-8 SPIDER LINES ON SIDE 2 AND 3-4 ON SIDE ONE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN PLAYED

THE VINYL

REALLY REALLY GLOSSY LP THAT LOOKS FANTASTIC. THERE ARE NO MARKS TO BE SEEN ON THE SURFACE IN DAYLIGHT, AND ONLY WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE SOME WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF HANDLING LINES TO BE SEEN

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 WANT BIDDER TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT IT IS THEY ARE CONSIDERING MAKING A BID FOR. THIS HAS TO BE THE WAY FORWARD FOR VINYL SALES AND I HOPE YOU AGREE

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH SUPERBLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATES THE CRISP CLEAN STEREO REPRODUCTION.

AN OUTSTANDING CRISP CLEAR DISTORTION FREE SOUND, UNINTERRUPTED BY ANY FRYING BACON OR LOUD CLICKS

A FULL LISTEN TO THIS DISC WILL REVEAL SOME VERY VERY LIGHT VINYL NOISE DURING THE RUN IN TO EACH SIDE, AND OCCASIONALLY IN THE LINKING GROOVES, AND A FEW BARELY AUDIBLE DUST POPS HERE AND THERE

BUT PLEASE LISTEN AND BE THE JUDGE

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS NEAR MINT MINUS

THE SLEEVE

LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE AND NON LAMINATED FLIPBACK REAR SURFACE

GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE 1ST ISSUE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS BEAUTIFULLY CLEAN AND VERY VERY GLOSSY. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS ANYWHERE. THERE ARE ONLY 4 REALLY SMALL AND BARELY VISIBLE LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE

NO LAMINATE LIFT, PEEL OR FLAKE ON ANY PART OF THE SLEEVE.

NO THUMB LINES EITHER.

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR, AND AGAIN ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS INTACT.

THE SPINE HAS THE FIRST PRESS TAPERED ENDS, AND IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND ALL OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

THE OPENING EDGE IS VERY VERY SHARP AND SHOWS JUST HOW LITTLE THIS LP HAS BEEN OUT OF THE COVER.

THE REAR SURFACE HAS PERFECTLY STUCK DOWN FLIPBACKS AND THEY ARE ALSO PERFECTLY CLEAN.

THE VULNERABLE UNLAMINATED POWDERY BLACK SURFACE IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITIION. OFTEN FOUND RUBBED THROUGH TO THE WHITE SURFACE, THIS ONE HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME VERY WELL AND IS STILL JET BLACK WITH JUST THE BAREST TRACE OF RECORD SHAPE ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE.

THE ORIGINAL EMI SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. FLAT AND VIRTUALLY UNCREASED

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT

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