CLEANED with Pro-Ject VCS MkII Vacuum Record Cleaner
HEAVYWEIGHT QUALITY 161g
It is the much RARER LOUD CUT version which was pulled shortly after it's release in 1965, which are now comming increasingly difficult to find in any condition.
There are just some VERY light, wispy marks to the vinyl. After playing her all the way through I certainly didn't find any jumps or skips-just RAW, clear sound!
Lovely shine and weight.
SHE SOUNDS LOUD!
I was VERY happy with the audio reproduction, only has very slight background noise but not very noticable at all and only very occasional on a couple of transition between songs and the very low sections...not constant at all.
I noticed a couple of light pops at the start of 'Girl,' but that was it.
Even the run ins were incredibly quiet!
GLORIOUSLY RAW




Labels:
EX-.

Nice and clear on both side.
There are light spindle marks, visible when angled towards the light.
Barely any central hole wear.
Lovely and bright.
NO WRITING

Also-why not check out my feedback for true gradings and happy customers.


Cover:
EX-.

 Lovely shiny front cover...
VERY strong and clear and clean spine.
Strong corners, with just light rubbing.
Garrod and Lofthouse flipbacks in SOLID condition.
I can see only 3 crescents of spidering to the front laminate, near the opening. With small fingers of spidering emanating from the seams...Nothing bad at all....I am being very open and critical here!
NO WRITING
To the back is a small cross shape stamp which has been clipped...please see the detailed images for yourselves.
Wonderful solid example-with just a degree of age discolouration to her-but don't we all?!?



Inner:
EX+

It is the all ORIGINAL "USE EMITEX" with the clear plastic lining...in great shape too.
Incredibly early too as it carries the PATENTS APPLIED FOR text.
NO SPLITS
NO WRITING
Just that a bit of that good ole age discolouration again...



ALL IN ALL, A RARE ALBUM IN VERY, VERY GOOD CONDITION THROUGHOUT!
GETTING HARD TO FIND THIS ALBUM IN SUCH GREAT ALL-ROUND CONDITION.
GRAB THIS LITTLE BEAUTY WITH BOTH HANDS!
