AS IS SEE PHOTOS
**Sounds noticeably different to a standard Sterling DMM version. With brighter highs and sharper upper-mids.
Fading effect lasts longer.
Has approx.2x gaps between tracks which is very unusual after listening a regular issue over 30 years.
All I can say this is the most powerful single release of MoP that I heard in my life.
Only few people know the names of those who mastered versions for CRC but anyway we should be grateful for them as in most cases they sound magnificent.
I have both the Columbia House and the Specialty Pressing (Thanks to Lanakias1) and I can easily say the Columbia House literally the greatest MOP pressing of all time. You NEVER heard of Master Of Puppets until you hear the Columbia House pressing.
The lack of DMM make this pressing incredibly a spellbinding experience.

Near Mint (NM or M-) Vinyl

A nearly perfect record. A NM or M- record has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly) that no record is ever truly perfect. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as any sign of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. The same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.
