SUN RA - ATLANTIS

OUTSTANDING EX+ AUDIO

EX+ GATEFOLD SLEEVE

 

 

THE RECORD 

 

THE LABELS

THE BLACK LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. BOTH BASE COLOURS ARE IMMACULATE AND UNWORN, AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. .

THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS TOTALLY UNRUBBED AND EVERY LETTER PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THERE IS ONE SPIDER LINE BY THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS,AND IN DAYLIGHT IS IS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS IT LOOKS TODAY SOME 49 YEARS ON AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT WAS PRESSED.
EVEN UNDER SPOTLIGHTS THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE OTHER THAN A COUPLE OF VERY LIGHT wispy hairlines
 

THE TEST PLAY

 

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.

THE SILENT BITS ARE  SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THIS SUPERB SOUND WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AT ANY POINT AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS

THERE IS A LITTLE EXTREMELY LOW LEVEL BACKGROUND RANDOMLY HEARD 

THERE ARE SOME RANDOM LITTLE TICS AND POPS
 

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO EX+

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

 

 

 

 

THE SLEEVE

 

NON LAMINATED MATTE GATEFOLD SLEEVE .

THIS WAS EXPORTED FROM THE USA TO THE UK BACK IN THE DAY AND AS SUCH HAS ONE EXPORT HOLE  IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER OF THE SLEEVE (WHY THEY HAD TO DO THIS HEAVEN KNOWS)

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND TOTALLY CLEAN. THERE IS NOT ONE MARK ON IT ANYWHERE. THE  SURFACE IS RICH AND VIBRANT

NO RUBBING OF THE COLOURS, OTHER THAN VERY LIGHT GREYING ABOVE THE BOTTOM EDGE AND JUST BELOW THE TOP EDGE

THERE ARE NO PRESSURE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE . NONE ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

NO RING WEAR AND NOT EVEN A TRACE OF RECORD SHAPE

THE FOUR CORNER S ARE SHARP AND SQUARE

THE TOP EDGES HAVE A FEW LIGHT PATCHES OF RUB AND A LITTLE ON THE RIGHT CORNERS

THE BOTTOM EDGES HAVE SLIGHTLY MORE

THE SPINE IS FLAT WITH PERFECTLY LEGIBLE TYPEFACE. ALMOST NO WEAR  A DOT OF RUB AT THE TIP ENDS 

THE OPENING EDGE IS JUST AS NEW!! RAZOR SHARP AND LOOKING AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT WAS PRINTED AND PUT TOGETHER. THE SEALED EDGE ON THE FRONT GATEFOLD HAS  A TINY BIT OF RUB AT THE ENDS

THE REAR SURFACE LOOKS SUPERB

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS TWO VERY CLEAN INNER PANELS 

THE DIE CUT INNER SLEEVE IS UNSPLIT AND CREASE FREE

A REAL TREAT TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE EX+

 

 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
