This NEAR MINT 1965 UK stereo pressing is on the black & yellow Parlophone label: PCS 3075
Both labels include the 'Sold in UK..' text & 'Gramophone Co..' rims.
The 'KT' tax/price code is visible on the side 1 label.
Housed in a thick card, front laminated, tri-flipback 'Garrod & Lofthouse' printed stereo cover.
Complete with its original 'Use Emitex' rice paper lined inner-sleeve.
Matrix numbers: YEX 178-3 & YEX 179-3
Stamper numbers: 2/GH & 2/GA

Visual: NEAR MINT
Both surfaces are in pristine 'as new' condition with absolutely no marks or scratches to either side when viewed in strong direct daylight .
Close inspection directly under a halogen desk lamp reveals just a few barely visible wispy inner sleeve removal hairlines but no other wear whatsoever.
Pressed on very thick vinyl which lies 100% flat on the turntable on both sides with no signs of dishing or warping.
Audio: NEAR MINT
Played carefully once by me and the original owner, this copy is perfect throughout.
All tracks play and sound 'as new' with no traces of wear audible anywhere.
Both run-ins & all bands play silently without any interference.
You will never need to upgrade this copy.
(I only grade records which are unplayed as 'MINT')
Cover: MINT
I have no hesitation in giving this a Mint grading as it is in all round perfect condition and looks as if it has just left the shop.
The front panel has no storagewear, disc impression, scratching or any 'thumbnails' creases whatsoever.
All corners are sharp and unbruised & the opening edges front & rear are untouched.
The rear panel is pristine clean & bright white with no toning, marks or blemishes.
All flipbacks are in perfect condition & the seams are unstressed & unsplit.
The spine is totally unbent and is in perfect condition.
This disc has been carefully audibly graded in their entirety on a Rega P9 deck fitted with a Shelter 901 cartridge.
