Condition

Labels: EXCELLENT

Visual: EXCELLENT +

Both sides appear 'as new' in strong daylight with all of their deep-gloss shine fully intact and no dulling or clouding to any area. Apart from a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines visible directly beneath my halogen desk lamp, there is nothing to fault visually on this superb, untarnished copy.

Play:EXCELLENT +

This great sounding copy has received just a small amount of careful play and the audio is clean & clear throughout without any groovewear distortion or background noise on any track or either channel. Even the exposed and easily damaged innermost tracks are unworn and retain all of their power and impact. Both run-ins and all bands play without interference and there are no clicks, pops jumps or any other significant or major audible faults anywhere on this 1st class copy.

Cover

EXCELLENT

A fine example of this easily blemished cover which displays a brilliant white and unyellowed front panel and a pristine high-gloss, unscratched & uncreased laminate. Amazingly, all corners and both opening edges are unworn and undamaged. The rear panel is extremely clean & bright with no writing, handling wear or missing paper. Apart from some tiny age-spots to the exposed edges to the flipbacks, this is as good as you could hope to find. Both seams and the clearly worded spine are all in perfect, undamaged condition.

Inner-sleeve

EXCELLENT

Clean, flat & white with no tears, writing or splits.


  • Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
  • I carefully play every record I sell on a $5,000 Rega P9 turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.
  • Unless stated, all records lie 100% flat & play without distortion, jumps or sticks. All sleeves/covers have no writing, splits or tears.
  • All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
  • All records are professionally & securely in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover.
