Vinyl:
VG+
ORIGINAL QUALITY 162g VINYL
 Lovely shine and as flat as the day it was bought. There are some light visible marks to the vinyl.
After just giving her a gentle professional vacuum clean, I have finished listening to both sides I found there to be a very little background noise evident during the playing of the tracks-just noticeable slightly on a Day In The Life and even then it was faint, with nothing to ruin my enjoyment of that classic track at all.
It has the PERPETUAL ENDING.
CERTAINLY NOTHING AT ALL TO MAKE HER JUMP OR SKIP
The bass is lovely rich and deep.
A pure joy to listen to-TURN HER UP-I did!
NON-BANDED.
Quality audio.


Labels:
EX.
 Lovely and clean. Only light spindle marks evident-even when angled to the light, with just a small amount of central hole wear to both sides!!!
 "KT" raised tax code to side 1.
"The Gramophone Co. Ltd..." rim text
"Sold in the UK" central statement.
Simply lovely example!


Inner Sleeve:
EX
"Made In Great Britain"
It is a replacement inner, but is of the period and has some age-discolouration-like me :)

Cut-Outs:
Not Present


Cover:
VG.
**IT IS THE INCREASINGLY RARE WIDESPINE VERSION....8MM IN WIDTH**
Strong spine, slightly squashed and rubbed but remains perfectly legible.
The front cover is still lovely and bright, as is the back cover and the inner picture. There is some slight rubbing to the corners.
There is some spidering to the front and back but nothing terrible. The point of note is the repair to the tear to the back panel and then coloured in red to match the back cover-but as you can see in the images provided there is significant damage there. I am being critical as well as honest as possible, so bid with confidence.
Garrod & Lofthouse
Remains a RARE cover and a definate filler.

SO FOLKS-THIS IS A WELL PRESENTED, RARER WIDESPINE VERSION OF A CLASSIC ALBUM...STILL PLAYING THROUGH WITH CLARITY AND POWER....ALL AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE FOR YOUR COLLECTION.
