Both are 'as new' with just a single spindle mark from the factory around the side 1 centre hole and none on 2

Visual: EXCELLENT +

Factory-fresh, deep-gloss playing surfaces which are unmarked in strong daylight with just a few harmless storage marks on side 1 beneath halogen light

Sound Quality: NEAR MINT

Clean, clear and unworn sound throughout with just a trace of low-level vinyl background on the run-ins and between tracks

Cover: EXCELLENT +

This superb example retains a clean high-gloss front panel laminate free from any creasing or 'thumbnails'. There are tiny rubs to the lower corner extremities but the rear panel is clean and unblemished. All seams are smooth, unstressed & unsplit.
