THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE RED AND PLUM LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE IMMACULATE AND UNWORN. AND THE WHITE BAND ACROSS THE MIDDLE IS STILL PURE WHITE AND STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THERE ARE JUST 10 2-3 MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES SHOWING THAT THE ALBUM HAS BEEN PLAYED
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS FLAWLESS THERE ARE A FEW SUPERFICIAL SURFACE HANDLING LINES (SKATE LINES) VISIBLE UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION
PLAYING THE RECORD
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BEAUTIFULLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND THE FIRST THING TO ELIMINATE IS AN ISSUE WITH DISTORTION. THERE IS ABSOLOUTELY NONE, MEANING THAT THE PLAYS THAT THIS ALBUM HAS RECEIVED HAVE BEEN DONE WITH A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION OF THIS FIRST PRESS IS BOTH CRYSTAL CLEAR AND LOUDLY MIXED
THERE IS NO SERIOUS BACKGROUND CRACKLE, JUST SOME RANDOM LIGHT LOW LEVEL STATIC LIKE STUFF IN A FEW LINKING GROOVES AND MOST SILENT PASSAGES. THERE ARE ALSO THREE OR FOUR TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE PLAY
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO NEAR MINT
BUT PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AS IT'S YOUR OPINION THAT COUNTS
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED AND DELICATE GATEFOLD SLEEVE . THIS IS SUCH A HARD SLEEVE TO FIND IN THIS SORT OF CONDITION. THE FACT THAT IT IS UNLAMINATED USUALLY ASURES THE SEVERE COLOUR LOSS TO THE DELICATE BLUE SURFACE. THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND TOTALLY CLEAN. THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON IT ANYWHERE. THE BLUE SURFACE IS TOTALLY UNBLEMISHED, UNRUBBED ..
THERE IS NO RING WEAR WHATSOEVER ON ANY PART OF THE SLEEVE, NOT EVEN ANY RECORD SHAPE
THERE ARE ZERO PRESSURE LINES BY TO THE SPINE, NONE ON THE TOP EDGE, ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE FOUR CORNER TIPS HAVE A LITTLE SPECK OF RUB TO THE ENDS
THE TOP EDGES HAVE A FEW WHITE FLECKS OF SHELF RUB ALONG THE FRONT SURFACE , AND THE CORNER TIPS AHVE A SPECK AS WELL
THE BOTTOM EDGES HAVE SIMILAR ON THE REAR SURFACE WITH A LITTLE MORE RUB TO THE REAR RIGHT CORNER
THE SPINE ITSELF IS JUST NEAR PRISTINE. TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, AND APART FROM A COUPLE OF PIN PRICKS OF WHITE SHOWING THROUGH HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE COLOUR, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. A TINY BIT OF RUBBING TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP WITH A COUPLE OF LIGHT SPECKS OF BURRING
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO FULLY COLOURED WITH NO RING WEAR. THERE ARE A FEW LIGHT SURFACE SCRATCHES AT THE BOTTOM
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE MINT CONDITION INTERIOR PAIR OF SURFACES.WITH A MINT CONDITION BOOKLET PROPERLY ATTACHED TO THE SLEEVE
THE INNER SLEEVE IS UNSPLIT
THERE ARE TWO EXTRAS WITH THIS COPY. FISTLY A POLYDOR YES TOUR PROGRAM PRINTED BY THE HASTINGS PRINTING COMPANY , DRURY LANE, HASTINGS, SUSSEX UK. THE PROGRAM WAS PRINTED FOR THE FRAGILE TOUR SUPPORTED BY JOHNATHAN SWIFT. IT IS IN MINT CONDITION
THE POSTER THAT CAME WITH IT IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION HAVING PIN HOLES IN THE CORNERS
A REAL TREAT TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
