CONDITION
Disc
Labels: NEAR MINT
An outstanding set with just a single light spindle spindle trail to each centre hole.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Both surfaces of this immaculate disc are spotless & totally unmarked in strong daylight with all of their 'as new' deep gloss shine fully intact. Close & careful inspection directly under my powerful halogen light reveals just a sparkling rainbow gloss and a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines, but I really struggled to find them. Both sides of this pristine copy lie 100% flat on the turntable with no signs of dishing or warping.
Play: NEAR MINT
This barley, if ever played disc sounds perfectly clean & clear throughout with not a trace of groovewear or background noise. Even the delicate 'Eleanor Rigby' and 'Here, There & Everywhere' play perfectly without crackle or break up in either channel. There are certainly no clicks, pops or indeed any other discernable audible wear anywhere on this top sounding copy.
Cover
EXCELLENT
A clean & strong example with just very light handling & storagewear and no major faults. The front panel is clean & bright and has retained its high-gloss laminate which bears just a single spine bend and two tiny 'thumbnails', but no other traces of wear. All corners are sharp & square an both opening edges are undamaged. The rear is clean & black where it should be with just a small bend to the lower left but no ringwear, rubbing, writing or missing paper anywhere. All flipbacks are clean & fully intact, as are both seams and the fully worded spine.
Inner-sleeve
EXCELLENT +
Clean & crisp with just minor storagewear wrinkling but no writing, tears or splits.
Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
I carefully play every record I sell on a $5,000 Rega P9 turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.
All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
All records are professionally & securely in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover.
