FULLY TEST PLAYED AND RECORDED SO YOU CAN HEAR IT BEFORE BIDDING Powered by eCommercePlayer.com Powered by eCommercePlayer.com

I have acquired a Large Paul McCartney collection, where the original owner had two copies of each title. Looking at the one set in particular it would appear that he had one for playing and one for storing.

They were all housed in a proper record case so no chance to get damaged

I am going to release these one per day in the original release order, so starting on Sunday 28th April with the Debut solo album

If you want the best copy that money can buy then look no further

PAUL AND LINDA MCCARTNEY -  RAM

INCREDIBLE ALBUM - JUST ONE PLAY

STONE MINT VINYL AND SLEEVE

FINAL UPGRADE

THE LABELS

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. BOTH THE GREEN SIDE AND THE WHITE SIDE
JUST ONE TINY SPIDER LINE BY THE SPINDLE HOLE ON THE WHITE SIDE

THE VINYL

ALSO IMMACULATE. YOU WILL NEVER FIND A CLEANER EXAMPLE. IT JUST HASN'T BEEN PLAYED MORE THAN ONCE
BOTH IN DAY LIGHT AND UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO IT LOOKS MINT

KEEP THE SUPERLATIVES TO THEABSOLUTE MINIMAL AMOUNT ALL I CAN SAY IS

SUBLIME!!!

ABSOLUTELY NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE 

SILENT LINKING GROOVES

NO DUST POPS OR TICS

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT  IT'S A REAL STUNNER

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF THOUGH

 

 

THE SLEEVE

 

 

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF THIS SLEEVE THAT I EVER HAD THE PLEASURE TO HOLD. THE FRONT SURFACE IS USUALLY FOUND WITH THE LAMINATE IN A POOR CONDITION, BUT NOT THIS ONE, IT'S IMMACULATE, AND GLEAMING

IT HAS BEEN HOUSED INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE FROM NEW AND THIS IS THE REASON FOR IT'S INCREDIBLE CONDITION

FULLY LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE.STILL SHINES LIKE A MIRROR.

FLAT AND CLEAN AND NO HEAVY CREASE LINES, NO BENDS EITHER. THERE ARE NO PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE.

 THERE ARE NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 100% FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR, AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS INTACT, AND THE COLOUR FULLY RUNS FROM CORNER TIP TO CORNER TIP, AND EVEN THE TIP ENDS REMAIN UNDAMAGED

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, WITH EVERY LETTER OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. BOTH ENDS ARE PERFECT

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP 

THE REAR SURFACE IS JUST AS SPECTACULAR AS THE FRONT, AGAIN NO PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE, NONE ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES ANYWHERE. ONCE AGAIN THE LAMINATE ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS

THE GATEFOLD WILL NOT OPEN MORE THAN A QUARTER OF THE WAY WHICH IN ITSELF TELLS A STORY OF HAVING NOT BEEN HANDLED

SO PATIALLY OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PRISTINE PAIR OF FULLY LAMINATED INNER PANELS WHICH ARE IN MINT CONDITION AND FREE FROM ANY CREASES OR CREASE LINES, AND STILL HAS THAT CREAK WHEN OPENED

ALSO FOR THOSE THAT KNOW, THIS SLEEVE OFTEN HAS PAPER PULL ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGES INSIDE THE GATEFOLD WHERE THE SLEEVE WAS CLOSED BEFORE THE LAMINATE HAD DRIED IN THE FACTORY. THIS ONE HOWEVER IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT

THE PLAIN WHITE  INNER SLEEVE IS INPRISTINE CONDITION. TOTALLY FLAT AND UNCREASED AND UNSPLIT

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE MINT
