Matrix no's : 2400101 A//1 / B//1
The vinyl still retains excellent sheen and under bright light there are actually few visible marks and what there are are only hairlines and paper scuffs and really very little to affect sound quality. And this is confirmed on playback as it plays great - really strong audio. Side 1 is Excellent and Side 2 Excellent Minus with just some minor surface noise audible in the quietest parts and the odd click and pop here and there. So overall graded - EXCELLENT MINUS.
The RED and PLUM ATLANTIC record labels are graded EXCELLENT - very little visible spindle wear.
The QUALITY CARD GATEFOLD PICTURE printed by MACNEILL PRESS is VERY GOOD PLUS - some bottom and spine rub ( spine remains 50% legible ) and some slight discolouration and feathering to opening and a small biro name on the back bottom right.
