THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

BLUE AND BLACK COLUMBIA LABELS IN MINT CONDITION

BOTH COLOURS ARE RICH AND VIBRANT AND THE UNMARKED  AND THE BLACK BASE STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. 

THE SILVER TYPEFACE IS UNRUBBED AND UNWORN AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE 3-4 TINY VISIBLE SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE  SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS 55 YEAR OLD LP HAS BEEN PLAYED

THE VINYL

ORIGINAL HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL WHICH IS IN STAGGERING CONDITION

THE GLOSSY SHEEN IS MAGNIFICENT AND IT LOOKS LIKE A FRESHLY PRESSED ALBUM

IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY IMMACULATE AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF MINUSCULE WISPY HAIRLINES

PLAYING THE RECORD

WE DO BELIEVE THAT A RARE LP SHOULD BE ABLE TO BE HEARD BY BIDDERS AND SO THAT IS WHAT WE HAVE  INVESTED IN. THE BUTTONS AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE WILL ALLOW YOU TO HEAR THE ACTUAL RECORD YOUR ARE THINKING OF BIDDING ON

THIS IS A SERVICE WE ARE DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER OUR CUSTOMERS

THE VINYL PLAYS SUPERBLY THROUGH BOTH SIDES AND PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, MEANING THE RECORD  HAS NO GROOVE WEAR

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO LOUD BACKGROUND CRACKLE ANYWHERE 

IN FACT THE MONO REPRODUCTION IS JUST SUPERB AND CRYSTAL CLEAR

THERE ARE MOSTLY SILENT PASSAGES THROUGHOUT BOTH SIDES AND ANY UNWANTED NOISES WOULD QUICKLY BE DETECTED, BUT THIS ALBUM PLAYS TO NEAR PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH

THERE ARE NO LOUD CLICKS TO BE HEARD EITHER

AND MOST INCREDIBLY THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND TO BE HEARD ANYWHERE AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE NEAR SILENT

DURING THE PLAY I HEARD NO MORE THAN A FEW RANDOM LOW LEVEL STATIC LIKE TICS / DUST POPS

SO MY SUGGESTION WOULD BE TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE LP AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS.

FOR US IT GRADES NEAR MINT FOR THE PLAYTHROUGH

THE SLEEVE

 LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE WITH NON LAMINATED FLIPBACK REAR SURFACE

GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE 

THE FRONT SURFACE HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR, AND THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS TO THE PICTURE AT ALL. THE INKS ARE MAGNIFICENT. THE LAMINATE IS ALSO INTACT HAVING NO PEEL LIFT OR FLAKE

THE SPINE IS FLAT AND FULLY LAMINATED WITH ONE SMALL ROUGH SPOT IN THE MIDDLE. BOTH TOP AND BOTTOM ENDS ARE UNBLEMISHED

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL VERY SHARP . ON THE INDIE OF THE COVER THERE IS SOME TAPE RESIDUE

THE REAR SURFACE SHOWS SOME YELLOW TAPE RESIDUE ON THE OPENING EDGE AND A PATCH JUST BELOW THE TOP EDGE WHERE IS PERSUME A NAME WAS AT ONE POINT TAPED ONTO THE SLEEVE. THIS AND THE OPENING EDGE TAPE HAS LONG SINCE DRIED UP AND FALLEN OFF LEAVING THE RESIDUE MARKS

OTHER THAN THIS THE FLIPBACKS ARE PEREFECTLY ADHERED AND UNDAMAGED
