THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE OLIVE GREEN LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THEY ARE RICH AND VIBRANT IN COLOUR AND THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. FINALLY THERE ARE JUST 4-5 SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS 44 YEAR OLD ALBUM HAS BEEN PLAYED

THE VINYL

THE HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION AND HAS NOT LOST ANY OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. A BEAUTIFULLY GLOSSY ALBUM IN AN AS NEW CONDITION. ONLY WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION AM I ABLE TO MAKE OUT A FEW 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 WHOLE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, AND THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

WHAT YOU WILL HEAR I BELIEVE IS A CRISP CLEAR STEREO REPRODUCTION THAT IS TOTALLY DISTORTION FREE.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLING WHATSOEVER, AND NO UNWANTED CLICKS ETC.

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER

JUST THE VERY ODD SEMI SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES, AND MOST SILENT PASSAGES

I DON'T BELIEVE I EVEN HEARD ANY MORE THAN 1-2 MINUSCULE DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH 

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT!!!

TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS

 

 

 

 

THE SLEEVE

 

SHOREWOOD GATEFOLD SLEEVE.

THIS SLEEVE HAS A HISTORY OF BEING HARD TO FIND IN A COLLECTIBLE CONDITION DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT IS UNLAMINATED AND HAS ONE OF THOSE  POWDERY FINISHES THAT ARE SERIOUSLY PRONE TO RUBBING AND RING WEAR.

THE FRONT SURFACE OF THIS SLEEVE IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES AND EVEN THE SMALL LINES THAT GATHER NEAR THE SPINE ARE RESTRICTED TO JUST ONE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES ANYWHERE ON THE SURFACE.

THE GREEN SURFACE HAS BEEN VERY WELL PRESERVED  AND IS UNBLEMISHED

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES HAVE NO SHELF WEAR WHATSOEVER

THE SPINE IS FLAT WITH JUST ONE LIGHT FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION NEAR THE BOTTOM. ONE OR TWO PIN PRICKS OF WHITE VISIBLE ON THE TOP LEADING EDGE, AND A SPECK OF RUB TO THE BOTTOM TIP. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A  PRISTINE PAIR OF INNER PANELS, WITH THE OPENING EDGE NEAR THE SPINE IS PERFECT UNSPLIT CONDITION

THE REAR SURFACE IS AGAIN CREASE FREE AND THE BLACK AND  WHITE SURFACE IS STILL PERFECT, AGAIN NO SMALL LINES NEAR ANY OF THE EDGES. 

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO MINT INNER PANELS

THE PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT CLEAN AND UNSPLIT.

I AM VERY PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE AS NEAR MINT !!!

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

GARRY
