LABELS: MINT
An immaculate set of clean unmarked labels with no spindle traces or any sign the record has ever been played
VINYL Visual: MINT
Both surfaces are unmarked and shine like new
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
My play-check at volume found practically nothing to fault.
No scratches, no clicks or pops and no groove-wear or distortion.
Just a slight touch of low-level surface between a couple of the tracks and on "Oh My Love" - nothing really, otherwise exceptionally clean playback with a deep, rich and warm loud cut
SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
As crisp, clean, sharp and fresh as the day it was made.
Some tiny paper loss on the back bottom edge where the laminate does not reach but this is common from new and not later wear
INNER SLEEVE: EXCELLENT+
Some age toning to the white otherwise unmarked - no seam splits
POSTER: MINT
Never been hung, or possibly even opened before my photographs
POSTCARD: MINT
