THE LABELS ARE PERFECT WITH STRONG, BOLD LETTERING AND STILL DISPLAY THEIR ORIGINAL DEEP BLACK COLOUR. THERE IS NO FADING OR RUBBING EVIDENT !

CLEALRY HAVING JUST RECEIVED VERY CAREFUL PLAYS THE VINYL LIES PERFECTLY FLAT AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DULLING OR OTHER IMPERFECTIONS TO THE PLAYING SURFACE.
AUDIO IS FLAWESS, PRISTINE AND IMMACULATE THROUGHOUT. DURING ONE CAREFUL PLAY BY MYSELF I DID NOT DETECT ANY DISTORTION AT ANY POINT, BOTH RUN IN/OUT GROOVES ARE SILENT AS ARE ALL TRACK GROOVES, EVEN THE QUIETER PARTS OF THE AUDIO ARE FREE FROM ANY INTERRUPTION
THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT EMITEX INNER IS PRESENT AND IS SUPERB WITH JUST LIGHT SIGNS OF AGE AND HANDLING AND THE INEVITABLE CREASES WHERE THE VINYL HAS SAT IN THE SLEEVE.
THE OUTER GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE "PATENTS PENDING" SLEEVE IS AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE. THE SLEEVE DISPLAYS LIGHT SIGNS OF AGE AND HANDLING. THERE ARE SOME LIGHT EDGE WRINKLES PRESENT AND SOME LIGHT 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 THE INEVITABLE 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 NO CREASES. THE SPINE IS PERFECT WITH ITS ORIGINAL FACTORY PINCHED ENDS INTACT AND THERE IS NO WEAR PRESENT. ALL WORDING IS PRISTINE.
