CONDITION
Slipcase: EXCELLENT
Clean, glossy & in-shape with the only significant sign of wear being a crease along the lower edge which has lifted the laminate in one area.
Both upper and lower ends are square & uncrushed and all of the edges are sharp and free from any tears or feathering.
Outer Tray: EXCELLENT
Clean & complete with just some pressure creases on the fold-over flaps.
Inner Tray: EXCELLENT
A fully intact, in-shape example of this fragile component with tiny stresses to the corners where the book sat, but no detached parts.
Book: EXCELLENT +
A superb unread example with printed credits on page 7. Both front and rear panels are glossy, unscratched & uncreased.
The spine is 'uncracked' and both ends are unworn. All pages inside are fully intact with none loose or missing.
LP
Labels: EXCELLENT +
A bright and clean set showing nothing more than a few tiny spindle trails around each unworn centre hole.
Visual: EXCELLENT
Clean, deep-gloss playing surfaces bearing a few light surface marks & wispy hairlines commensurate with careful handling & play, but nothing of any significance.
Sound Quality: EXCELLENT
Played with care on quality equipment only, the sound is warm and clear throughout with no trace of any groove/playwear.
Aside from a little low-level vinyl background between tracks and a few light ticks at the start of 'Let It Be', there is little else to fault.
Cover: EXCELLENT -
Strong & glossy with light storagewear to the high-gloss laminate and a 2cm scuff (not split) to the lower seam only.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT +
Clean & white with no creasing, tears or seam splits.
