THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BLUE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION.
THERE IS NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THE BLACK TEXT IS ALSO IN PERFECT CONDITION
THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWS 2-3 MINUSCULE SPIDER LINES, AND I HAVE EXAMINED IT USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY MINT.
EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A FEW NEAR INVISIBLE WISPY HAIRLINES AND ALSO SOME DULL EMBEDDED BUT NON SOUNDING STREAKS
PLAYING THE RECORD
THIS VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER,
NO DISTORTION AT ANY POINT TO THE STEREO REPRODUCTION, SO NO GROOVE WEAR
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
A CLEAR , AND LOUD STEREO REPRODUCTION
THE RECORD PLAYS SUPERBLY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, CLEAN AUDIO AND ONLY THE ODD RANDOM SPECK OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND IN ONE OR TWO LINKING GROOVES AND OR MOST SILENT PASSAGES
NOTHING TO MAR THE OUTSTANDING AUDIO PERFORMANCE WHATSOEVER
SO A BARELY PLAYED LP THAT HAS AN AUDIO GRADE OF NEAR MINT
LAMINATED FRONT, NON LAMINATED REAR WITH FLIPBACKS FROM GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS A VERY GLOSSY SHINE TO THE LAMINATE. NO PEEL, LIFT OR FLAKE
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE
THE FOUR CORNERS HAVE A PIN PRICK OF TIP RUB
THERE IARE THREE TINY PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. TWO NEAR INVISIBLE ONES ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE , AND ZERO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES BOTH HAVE PRISTINE LAMINATE WITH JUST A SPECK OF RUB TO THE TIP ENDS
THE SPINE IS FLAT , HAS PRISTINE TEXT. THE ENDS ARE UNBLEMISHED
THE OPENING EDGE SHAS A LITTLE ROUGHNESS TO THE SURFACES
THE REAR SURFACE HAS PERFECT FLIPBACKS
THE PLAIN SURFACE HAS NO WRITING OR MARKS ON IT, AND ONLY SHOWS MILD HANDLING
I AM VERY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
