Blind - The Sundays EU/GR ORIGINAL PRESSING [Excellent Condition]. Condition is "Used". Shipped with USPS Media Mail.
Media - Excellent (EX)
Hi! This is the original 1992 Greek pressing of The Sundays' album Blind. No noise except for a light distortion on the last few seconds of God Made Me, likely a factory flaw as the original track is quite loud and distorted as well. Other than that the record plays beautifully quiet. This original pressing is by far the best pressing of this album, especially compared to the infamously atrocious RSD reissues.
Visually, some very light wear from being in the original sleeve is also present on the record, but does not affect the sound of the record. Record has been lightly washed with MOTH MKII PRO audio record cleaner. A deeper clean may remove any and all surface wear. In normal lighting, these marks are not visible at all.
Outer Sleeve - Very Good Plus (VG+)
As for the outer jacket, a grading of VG-VG+ would be appropriate. There is some light ring wear on the outer jacket as well as a 3 inch split at the corner opening. There are no seam splits at any closed portions of the jacket.
The inner sleeve, being paper from 1992, is still in good condition but has a 0.5 inch seam split on the right side, and a larger 4.4 inch seam split at the left. The condition of the inner sleeve is good enough to keep the vinyl inside, but for longer storage I would suggest a fresh inner sleeve.
Record will be packaged with a fresh poly outer sleeve (as seen in photos), with the inner sleeve holding the vinyl itself packaged outside of the jacket (to preserve the condition of the jacket during shipping). Feel free to hit with a reasonable offer or any questions you might have.
