SUPERB NEAR MINT AUDIO

 EX+ SLEEVE 


 

 

THE RECORD

 

THE LABELS

THE GREY LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE COLOURS ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. 

THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED. A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS JUST A 2-3 TINY SPIDER LINES

THE VINYL

THE RECORD IS STILL GLOSSY AND IN DAYLIGHT IS FLAWLESS
UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO IT STILL LOOKS NEAR PRISTINE, JUST A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE DULL BUT NON SOUNDING MARKS ON SIDE TWO, AND A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES

THE TEST PLAY


THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THE LP SOUNDS. THE SILENT BITS ARE SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLING. NO STICKS, OR SKIPS

SILENT LINKING GROOVES WITH JUST A COUPLE OF THE MOST MINUSCULE SPECKS OF STATIC IN A SILENT PASSAGE OR TWO

NO TICS OR POPS

I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO NEAR MINT

 

 

 

THE SLEEVE

NON LAMINATED MATTE SINGLE SLEEVE 

THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY CLEAN AND THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF HEAVY CREASING OR CREASE LINES.

THE COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND HAVE REMAINED UNFADED

THERE IS NO RING WEAR JUST A SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE

THERE ARE THREE TINY PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE. ONE ON THE TOP EDGE. ONE ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE FOUR CORNERS HAVE A TINY SPECK OF RUB TO A COUPLE OF TIPS AND TWO HAVE VERY TINY DINGS

THE TOP EDGE IS FULLY COLOURED AND HAS UNBLEMISHED CORNER TIPS

THE BOTTOM EDGE IS SIMILAR WITH A DOT OF RUB ON THE CORNER TIPS

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND UNSQUASHED.  THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. A FEW DIMPLES ON THE SURFACE AND THE ENDS ARE UNRUBBED

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP 

THE REAR SURFACE IS STILL IN GREAT SHAPE, THE PALE PINK COLOUR HAS NOT RUBBED OR FADED

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS MAGNIFICENT SLEEVE EX+

 

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