Description

RINGO STARR - RINGO'S ROTOGRAVURE

IN MAGNIFICENT UNPLAYED MINT MINUS!!!! CONDITION

OUTSTANDING SLEEVE

 

  • CATALOGUE:POLYDOR 2302 040
  • MATRIX:2302040 A//5  1 1  3 / B//5  1 2  5 
  • CROSSED OUT ETCHED MATRIX NUMBERS BOTH SIDES

FINDING ANY BEATLES RELATED ALBUM THAT HASN'T BEEN PLAYED BEFORE IS VERY VERY RARE. HERE IS THE FIRST OF A FEW THAT I WILL BE LISTING OVER THE COMING DAYS THAT ALL CAME FROM THE SAME COLLECTOR

 

THE RECORDS

 

THE LABELS

THE ORANGY RED POLYDOR LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THERE IS NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED.

THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES WHATSOEVER ON EITHER SIDE OF THE HOLE

THE VINYL

THIS DISC GLEAMS LIKE NEW. IT HAS THAT JUST REMOVED FROM THE SLEEVE SHEEN ABOUT IT, AND IT IS CLEAR THAT THIS HAS NEVER BEEN ON A TURNTABLE UNTIL TODAY.

IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM ONE MINUSCULE HANDLING MARK ON SIDE ONE IN BETWEEN TRACKS 3 AND 4

 

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.

I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I NOW DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE CLARITY OF THIS FIRST PRESS IS THERE FOR ALL TO HEAR. A VERY SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION THAT IS ABSOLUTELYCRSTAL CLEAR. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE VINYLS THAT YOU NEED TO PLAY LOUD AS IT WAS INTENDED

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS BRILLIANT AND THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO ANY PART OF THE SOUND, NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLING OR CLICKS ETC

NO VINYL NOISE AT ANY POINT DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH, AND THERE IS JUST A TINY BIT OF EXTREMELY LIGHT BACKGROUND WHERE THE TINY HANDLING MARK APPEARS ON SIDE ONE. THIS 2-3 ROTATIONAL STATIC LIKE SOUND IS RIGHT AT THE END OF TRACK THREE INTO THE LINKING GROOVE.

OTHER THAN THIS THERE ARE 3-4 OF THE TINIEST DURST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THIS INCREDIBLE AUDIO PERFORMANCE AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL  MINT MINUS!!!

 

 

 

 

THE SLEEVE

 

NON LAMINATED JAMES UPTON  GATEFOLD SLEEVE.

ONE OF THE COMMON PROBLEMS THIS SLEEVE IS COLOUR LOSS AND RING WEAR. THIS SUPERB SLEEVE HAS NO COLOUR LOSS AND NO RING WEAR

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT, CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY MARKS, STAINS OR CREASES.

THERE IS JUST ONE MICROSCOPIC LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINE, ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, BUT NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM, NOR ARE THERE ANY THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THE COLOURS HAVE REMAINED UNRUBBED THIS IS SUCH A HARD SLEEVE TO FIND WITHOUT MAJOR FLAWS, AND THIS ONE IS IN SUPERB ORIGINAL CONDITION

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE IN UNRUBBED CONDITION. CLEARLY THE SLEEVE HAS BEEN PROTECTED FROM NEW INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. THERE IS NO RUBBING TO THE TYPEFACE AND THE ENDS ARE ALSO UNBLEMISHED. THERE IS SOME LIGHT MOTTLING TO THE WHITE SURFACE

THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP AND AS NEW

THE REAR SURFACE AGAIN HAS ALL OF THE COLOURS PERFECTLY INTACT AND UNRUBBED. THERE IS NO RECORD SHAPE OR RING WEAR. NOR ARE THERE ANY LINES NEAR THE SPINE. JUST ONE TINY ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A MINT PAIR OF INNER PANELS

THE ORIGINAL LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT AND UNSPLIT!! THERE IS SOME GLUE AGEING TO THE SEAMS BUT THAT IS ALL. THIS IS WHERE IT HAS AT UNMOLESTED FOR ALL THESE YEARS AND NOT SEEN THE LIGHT OF DAY

THE SLEEVE EASILY GRADES NEAR MINT!!!

 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT

GARRY
