OUTSTANDING NEAR MINT SLEEVE

FINAL UPGRADE EXAMPLE

 FROM A BATCH OF EX SHOP STOCK ALBUMS

 

THE LABELS

THE ORANGE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS. 

THE COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UN-RUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE NO SPIDER LINES AGAINST THE SPINDLE HOLE

 

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS OR LINES, AND IN DAYLIGHT THIS HEAVYWEIGHT DISC LOOKS FLAWLESS AND EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TOA MAGNIFYING LED HALO, THE RECORD IS STILL MINT

THE TEST PLAY

THIS VINYL PLAYS EVERY BIT AS SUPERBLY AS IT LOOKS. FROM THE SECOND THE STYLUS IS LOWERED ONTO THE RUN IN GROOVE THE CLARITY OF REPRODUCTION COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. THIS IS A FIRST PRESS STEREO SOUND IN EVERY WAY.

THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE, OR LOUD CLICKS OR SMALL ONES FOR THAT MATTER

CERTAINLY NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD AS WAS INTENDED

I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY  STATIC AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
NO TICS OR POPS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL  MINT 

DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, HAVE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS

 

THE SLEEVE

 

SUPERB SHOREWOOD MATTE SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE DEEP RICH COLOURS  ARE STILL IN THE BEST CONDITION POSSIBLE. NO COLOUR FADE WHATSOEVER OTHER THAN A LIGHT SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE WHEN ANGLED INTO THE LIGHT

NO RING WEAR 

THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS, AND  THERE ARE NO PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE. AND ZERO THUMB LINES ON THE RIGHT EDGE

THE BOTTOM CORNERS HAVE A TINY BIT OR RUB AT THE TIPS

THE TOP EDGE HAS A TINY SPECK OF RUB NEAR THE LEFT CORNER ANDA SPECK ON THE RIGHT TIP END

THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS A LITTLE ON THE RIGHT CORNER AND A FEWTINY WHITE FLECKS ELSEWHERE

THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT WITHA FEW DIMPLES ON THE SURFACE, . NO RUB TO THE TOP OR BOTTOM TIPS OR ANYWHERE ELSE. THE TYPEFACE IS PEFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION.EVERY BIT AS GOOD AS THE FRONT

THE CORRECT 'AND WILLIAMS' INNER SLEEVE IS IN PERFECT CONDITION

I AM REALLY PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
