THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE PICTURE LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. A SOLID BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE  SPIDER LINE AROUND THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE

 

THE VINYL

THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A FEW EMBEDDED DULL SPECKLES AND A COUPLE OF SMALL WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL 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 ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.

THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT WHAT LITTLE PLAY THE RECORD HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A PERFECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND JUST THE ODD SPLIT SECOND OF STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES

I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY MORE THAN 1-2 MINUSCULE STATIC TICSS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT!!!

PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

 

 

THE SLEEVE

 

SINGLE SLEEVE STILL 

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. ALL OF THE EASILY RUBBED COLOURS ARE THERE AND UNRUBBED

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE

THERE ARE ZERO!!! LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH MINT. NO RUBBING NO COLOUR LOSS AND EVEN THE TIPS ARE IMMACULATE

THE SPINE IS PERFECT. TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. THE COLOUR IS ALL THERE AND FULLY RUNS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM UNBLEMISHED. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF TINY NICKS AT THE VERY BOTTOM

THE REAR SURFACE IS IDENTICAL TO THE FRONT. IN ABSOLUTELY TOP CONDITION

THE PICTURE CARD INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM HAVING THE SQUARE CORNERS AND THE SMALL THUMB NOTCH ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND IS ALSO IN SUPER CONDITION. NO SPLITS, NO CREASES, NO WRINKLES, JUST SOME GLUE AGEING TO THE EDGES ON ONE SIDE ONLY

THE 2 PAGE LYRIC INSERT SHEET IS ALSO PRISTINE

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS  SLEEVE MINT !!!
