VERY GOOD/VERY GOOD+ CONDITION

Mainly a clean sleeve in VERY GOOD condition, but displays some light wear and some sleeve damage. Laminate has some small/medium superficial laminate creases, some light partial record sleeve ring wear and some laminate dulling which has affected parts of the bottom half of the sleeve laminate in places owing to being damp at one time. Back sleeve shows discolouration and some sleeve damage again owing to damp/water damage at one time along the bottom sleeve’s edging. Spine print is mostly clear legible and intact, light sleeve corner crease evident across the front bottom left hand side. There are no rips/tears, no seem splits (although bottom edge shows wear), no writing and no other sleeve creases (apart from corner crease already mentioned).

 

Original inner sleeve has been replaced.

 

Both labels are NEAR MINT, clean appearance with no visible wear or any damage and with  some light faint light spindle hole marks on both sides.

 

Playing surfaces and matrix areas are in VERY GOOD+ condition, full original glossy sheen on both sides, with only a few, lightly scattered, barely visible, very light, fine line/hairline surface scuffs, which mainly only show up when angled and viewed closely under a strong bright light. The A-side has two tiny residue pressing fault marks(*), one at 5 o’clock on the first track on the A-side and the other at 7 o’clock on the A-side.

 

Both sides play mostly EXCELLENT emitting a good clear sound, however some low to medium background surface noise is evident in places, which is intermittent and not consistent throughout, some minor background passing clicks can be heard on the A-side pressing fault marks mentioned above (*) and also some occasional low level passing clicks in a few palaces also on the A-side.
