CONDITION

Disc

Labels: NEAR MINT

A near perfect set with just two or three extremely small & faint spindle trails to each centre-hole.

Visual: NEAR MINT

Both surfaces of this remarkable 'as new' copy are unmarked and in MINT condition when viewed in strong daylight. Close & careful inspection directly under my powerful halogen light reveals just literally one or two faint marks from inner-sleeve removal but no scratches or any other signs of wear whatsoever. Both sides lie 100% flat on the turntable with no signs of dishing or warping.

Play: NEAR MINT

This copy has clearly received just a few very careful plays on top-quality equipment and sounds 'as new' throughout with no traces of any audible wear on or between any track.

Cover

EXCELLENT

A pristine white front panel with a perfect, unscratched front laminate which displays just a single, tiny 'thumbnail' crease towards the opening edge. There is a small water stain to the lower left corner and a small bump to the both opening edges appear untouched and are unworn. The rear panel is clean & black with just a hint of storagewear rubbing over John's shoulder but no other marks or any writing or missing paper. All flipbacks are present, clean & intact. There is a 5cm repair to the upper seam but the lower one and the spine are undamaged.

Inner-sleeve

EXCELLENT

Clean & crisp with just minor storagewear creasing but no splits, tears or writing.


  • Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.

  • All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
