Original first pressing of this mega rare gem – final upgrade copy..
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY – IT WILL BE A LONG TIME BEFORE YOU SEE ONE OF THESE AGAIN IN THIS CONDITION.
Comes from the original owner who bought it NEW,played it VERY FEW times to put it on tape/CD and stored it away….I’m quite confident to say that this might be a once in a lifetime opportunity to buy such a pristine and beautiful copy…If it doesn’t sell for the listing price now it will be put in my ebay store and I know someone will eventually buy it.
cover: un-laminated cover ,superb clean MINT- with 3-4 LIGHT and SMALL creases along the spine, otherwise pretty much near perfect …back is also spotless, NEAR NEW condition... very nice and square corners,perfect spine with all the letters clean and readable.....no rips,tears,splits or any other damages....
record,visual: superb clean ,between EX++ and MINT- with few VERY light hairlines ,also imprints from contact with the inner sleeve …the vinyl lays perfectly flat on the turntable,there are NO warps at all..it still retains it’s beautiful original sheen and it looks VERY NEAR NEW..
record,audio: RECORD PLAYS GREAT WITH CRYSTAL CLEAR AND VIBRANT SOUND WITHOUT ANY SINGS OF GROOVEWEAR,WITH GREAT DELIVERY AND STEREO IMAGE.. ... RUN-IN AND RUN-OUT GROOVES AND THE SPACES BETWEEN TRACKS ARE QUIET, NO LOUD POPS/CLICKS AT ALL..
labels: AS CLEAN AS IT COULD BE with 2 very light spindle hole marks on side B….ZAL-10064.P-1W and ZAL-10065.P-1W matrix numbers,earliest possible pressing ...no tears,stamps or any other damages...

MINT
EX (EXCELLENT)
VG ( VERY GOOD)
I ALSO USE PLUS (+) AND MINUS (-) IF THE CONDITION FALLS BETWEEN TWO GRADES.
VINYL WILL FIRST BE INSPECTED VISUALLY VERY CAREFULLY UNDER STRONG LIGHT..I DON'T HAVE TIME TO PLAY EVERY SINGLE RECORD FROM START TO END ( WHO DOES ? ) - HOWEVER,I TESTPLAY SKIPPING THROUGH TRACKS ON BOTH SIDES ( INCLUDING RUN-IN,RUN-OUT GROOVES AND THE SPACES BETWEEN TRACKS ) TO CHECK THE OVERALL PLAYBACK QUALITY.
ALL TESTPLAYING IS DONE ON TOP QUALITY EQUIPMENT- LINN SONDEK WITH ITTOK TONEARM AND BENZ MICRO GLIDER S MOVING COIL CARTRIDGE,McINTOSH TUBE AMPMS AND AMT ESS HEIL SPEAKERS.
