NEAR MINT SLEEVE WITH INSERT
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BLUE LABELS ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE. NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND ALL OF THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS PERFECT AND UNRUBBED. THE SPINDLE HOLE HAS 1-2 VISIBLE SPIDER LINES NEXT TO IT
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO IT STILL LOOKS MINT
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.
NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT AND ALL I HEARD DURING THE PLAY WERE A FEW TINY SPECKS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO NEAR MINT
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
LAMINATED GLOSSY SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS DEEP RICH COLOURS ACROSS THE ENTIRE SLEEVE
THE LAMINATE IS FREE FROM ANY PEEL, LIFT OR FLAKE
NO RING WEAR JUST A SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE TOP AND BOTTOM
THERE ARE ZERO PRESSURE LINES BY THE SPINE, TWO MINUSCULE ONES ALONG THE TOP EDGE, THREE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THE TOP EDGE HAS ALL OF THE COLOUR INTACT AND JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIP
THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS ONE PIN PRICK OF WHITE SHOWING NEAR THE RIGHT CORNER AND A SPECK OF RUB ON THE LEFT CORNER TOP
THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT. PRISTINE TYPEFACE. UNBLEMISHED ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS AS PERFECT AS THE FRONT
THE INSERT SHEET IS MINT
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
