THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE BLUE AND ORANGE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE IMMACULATE AND UNWORN, AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. .

THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS TOTALLY UNRUBBED AND EVERY LETTER PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES WHATSOEVER AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS,AND IN DAYLIGHT IS IS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS IT LOOKS TODAY SOME 32 YEARS ON AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT WAS PRESSED. EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES

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 DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS.

UNPLAYED DOESN'T ALWAYS MEAN MINT AND SO I TOOK THE DECISION TO CAREFULLY TEST PLAY THIS VINYL. THIS PLAY WILL NOT BE DETECTED

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.

THE SILENT BITS ARE   SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THIS SUPERB SOUND WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS

NOT ON JOT OF VINYL NOISE OR STATIC, AND I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE PLAYTHROUGH

YOU WILL NEVER GET A BETTER COPY OF THIS EVER!!

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT!!! IT IS THAT GOOD

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

SEMI LAMINATED  SINGLE SLEEVE .

THE ONLY WAY TO ENSURE THAT THIS COULD GET RUBBED  WAS TO PROTECT IT FROM DAY ONE INSIDE A PLASTIC SLEEVE (AND LEAVE IT THERE). I AM DELIGHTED TO SAY THAT THE LP'S ORIGINAL OWNER HAD THE FORESIGHT TO DO JUST THAT. AND HERE WE HAVE WHAT CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS A  NEAR PERFECT SLEEVE.

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND TOTALLY CLEAN. THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON IT ANYWHERE. THE  SURFACE IS TOTALLY UNBLEMISHED, AND FREE FROM ANY CREASES OR CREASE LINES

THERE IS ONE MICROSCOPIC LINE NEXT TO THE SPINE AT THE VERY TOP. NONE AT ALL ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

NO RING WEAR AND NOT EVEN A TRACE OF RECORD SHAPE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR. BOTH TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE FULL UNBLEMISHED COLOUR RUNNING FROM TIP TO TIP

THE SPINE ITSELF IS JUST  NEAR IMMACULATE. THE ONLY AREA ON THE WHOLE SLEEVE WHERE THERE IS A BLEMISH. THE TOP HAS A TINY LITTLE  SPECK IF RUBBING AND FURTHER ALONG THERE ARE THREE WHITE PINPRICKS ON THE LEADING EDGE

OTHER THAN THIS THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED, WITH ALL OF THE COLOUR PRISTINE AND VIBRANT. THE TYPEFACE IS ALSO PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS JUST AS NEW!! RAZOR SHARP AND LOOKING AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT WAS PRINTED AND PUT TOGETHER. FURTHER PROOF THAT THE RECORD HAS REMAINED INSIDE THE SLEEVE.NOT EVEN A THUMB NAIL NICK ANYWHERE ALONG IT

THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN THE BEST POSSIBLE CONDITION THAT ANY COLLECTOR TO COULD WISH TO HOPE FOR, ABSOLUTELY NO LINES OR CREASES AT ALL

THE PHOTOGRAPHIC CARD  INNER SLEEVE FOR THIS RELEASE IS ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE. NOT ONE DROP OF LOST COLOUR AND ALL OF THE SEAMS ARE UNSPLIT. NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES, AND PERFECTLY UNDAMAGED THUMB NOTCH ALONG THE TOP EDGE.

A REAL TREAT TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT MINUS !!!

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