THE BLACK AND YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. WHEN EXAMINED CLOSELY UNDER A STRONG LIGHT THERE ARE JUST VERY LIGHT BUT VERY MINIMAL SPINDLE MARKS VISIBLE ON EITHER SIDE. THE LABELS ARE CLEAN WITH STRONG, BOLD AND PERFECT LETTERING AND STILL DISPLAY THEIR ORIGINAL DEEP BLACK COLOUR.
THE GLOSSY THIN AND LIGH WEIGHT VINYL IS SUPERB ,THIS HAS BEEN PLAYED BUT DESPITE THIS THE VINYL DISPLAYS JUST LIGHT AND MINIMAL HANDLING MARKS AND THE ODD VERY LIGHT NEEDLE MARK ASSOCIATED WITH PLAY BUT ABSOLUTLEY NOTHING SERIOUS OR FEELABLE.. THE VINYL LIES PERFECTLY FLAT AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DULLING OR OTHER IMPERFECTIONS TO THE PLAYING SURFACE.
AUDIO IS SUPERB THROUGHOUT. DURING ONE CAREFUL PLAY BY MYSELF I DID DETECT SOME MILD CRACKLE TO BOTH RUN IN/OUT GROOVES BUT ALL TRACK GROOVES APPEAR SILENT, EVEN THE QUIETER PARTS OF THE AUDIO ARE FREE FROM ANY INTERRUPTION
THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT EMITEX INNER IS PRESENT AND IS ALSO SUPERB WITH JUST VERY MILD CREASES AND A MILD IMPRESSION WHERE THE VINYL HAS SAT IN THE SLEEVE.
THE OUTER G&L SLEEVE IS A SUPERB EXAMPLE. THE SLEEVE DISPLAYS LIGHT SIGNS OF AGE AND HANDLING. THERE ARE SOME LIGHT EDGE WRINKLES PRESENT BUT NO ACTUAL CREASES . THE FRONT IS SPOTLESSLY CLEAN, GLOSSY AND WITH NO RINGWEAR PRESENT. THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL PERFECTLY STRAIGHT AND TRUE WITH A HINT OF HANDLING PRESENT AND THERE ARE JUST THE SLIGHTEST HINTS OF CORNER BUMPS PRESENT BUT THESE REALLY ARE MINOR. THE REAR IS SUPERB AND IT ONLY DISPLAYS THE ODD SIGN OF AGE AND AGAIN THERE IS NO RINGWEAR PRESENT. ALL THREE FLIPBACKS LIE PERFECTLY FLAT WITH JUST ONE LIGHT CREASE TO THE BOTTOM SEAM. THE SPINE IS PERFECT AND RIGID AND INTACT AND THERE IS NO WEAR PRESENT. ALL WORDING IS PRISTINE.
OVERALL AN TRULY SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THIS RARE AND VERY COLLECTABLE UK LOUD CUT VERSION.
