Vinyl is in nice visual shape and has been well looked after still retaining a decent sheen. Plays through very well with no skips, sticks or jumps and strong audio / production throughout. Great album their 6th overall at the time. Minimal marks under the lamp some very fine wisps but this one has survived very well. Smooth pink rim island labels have no stickers or writing, no spindle wear to the centres. Original printed inner sleeve with lyrics has a tiny split to bottom sleeve not taped, some ring wear and a white inner sleeve so some age related light yellowing. Outer textured gatefold sleeve has no splits, stickers or writing. Some storage wear marks round the perimeter of the sleeve, readable medium spine. Some age related yellowing to sleeve in parts.

All records are properly play tested through headphones unless otherwise stated or still sealed.. All vinyl is inspected under a bright halogen lamp and carefully graded.. I use the standard UK record collector grading system appreciating that opinions differ.. I never add more than one + or - to my gradings and never grade a record as M unless its new or sealed.

…

Vinyl graded first then outer / inner sleeves etc. Vinyl always separated from sleeve in transit. Comes in a PVC protective sleeve with new anti static inner when inner sleeve is printed or a new one is required. Posted with stiffener in sturdy vinyl mailer always signed for, insured and proof of postage always retained. Any international postage is also always signed for, tracked and with healthy insurance.
