THE VINYLS   MINT-   INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the  ORIGIBNAL 1986 UK PRESSING -

Stored from new this LP has seen A COUPLE OF PLAYS only, and remains in pristine condition everywhere.

BOTH ARE IN IMMACULATE CONDITION -  WE HAVE NEVER SEEN A COPY THIS GOOD SINCE THE DAY IT WAS RELEASED!

This pressing is a superb vinyl SET which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age. The edges are silky smooth, typical of these vintage pressings. We are seing fewer and fewer copies of this LP, so rarely do we see a copy at all, let alone like this.

ONE light spider line around the centre holes, and no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever.

There are  a few light whisp lines on both vinyls and thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..

IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION.

On playing through we heard nothing bar the tiniest of lead in static in the dead grooves..it sounds like new as it could be! NOTHING SKIPS JUMPS OR STICKS HERE!

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

THE LABELS   MINT  FLAT MATT LABELS

 

THE SLEEVE     MINT-

Correct  firs issued UK GLOSS SINGLE WIDE SPINE sleeve  -with BOTH INNERS & CARD INSERT.

Printed by  -   UN CREDITED

A real stinker for finding without bad rubbing and tatty corners..both vinyls were forced into the single sleeve creating so much trouble. with continual use the sleeves soon wore out!  .but this one is a stunner!

This is in SUPERB condition, quite amazing how it has survived so clean.

The edges are all super clean with virtually no traces of rub, at all , and all colours and inks remain in outstanding condition

A few light spider lines and a couple of tiny light creases ..but superb compared to most other sleeves we see

No powdery white ringwear - some very light ring press, and all edges are super crisp.

Some tiny light tip rub &  a couple of  spider lines over the edge of the spine -the spine remains square. 

A couple of tiny spider lines over the edges.

The open edge remains in super sharp condition -

We cannot add any more than this! ITS A BEAUTY!
