THE ALBUM SLEEVE
THIS IS THE CORRECT ERNEST J.DAY & CO SLEEVE WHICH HAS SLIGHT EDGE WEAR,THE FRONT SLEEVE RETAINS NICE LAMINATE GLOSS WITH A SCUFF THAT RUNS ONTO PAULS FACE,THE REAR OF THE SLEEVE HAS STARTED TO BROWN WITH AGE AND HAS SOME STAINS ON THE OPENING,BUT NO TEARS/WRITING AND HAS A NICE READABLE SPINE SO A VERY NICE ORIGINAL EXAMPLE!!
THE INNER SLEEVE
THIS COMES WITH THE "MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN" AND "PATENT NUMBER" SLEEVE AS SHOWN IN THE PHOTO. IT HAS LIGHT FOLDING/STAINING AND HAS STARTED TO BROWN AND THERE ARE TWO SMALL SPLITS ON THE BOTTOM ALTHOUGH OVERALL A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE [THE RECORD WILL COME IN A NEW WHITE SLEEVE].
THE LABELS
AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PHOTO,S,THIS ALBUM HAS YELLOW AND BLACK PARLOPHONE LABELS AND "SOLD IN THE U.K SUBJECT TO" ON THEM, ALSO "THE GRAMOPHONE CO.LTD" AROUND THE RIMS. THERE IS SOME SPINDLEWEAR AND LIGHT WEAR, ALL THE SCRIPT IS NICE AND READABLE SO VERY NICE EXAMPLES. THIS IS AN EARLY PRESS IT SHOWS THE "K.T " TAX MARK ON THE CENTRE.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL RETAINS SOME ORIGINAL GLOSS,THERE ARE MANY LIGHT MARKS VISIBLE OF WHICH SOME ARE FEELABLE ON THE VINYL WHICH CAUSES SOME CRACKLE,THERE WAS A SMALL SKIP ON "YOU WON,T SEE ME" ALSO ON SIDE 1 THERE WAS HEAVIER CRACKLE ON "MICHELLE" THIS PLAYED THROUGH BUT MAY STICK WITH OTHER NEEDLES,ON SIDE 2 THE PLAYBACK IS BETTER WITH SOME OCCASIONAL CRACKLE BUT OVERALL THIS WOULD ONLY GRADE AROUND GOOD ON SIDE 1 AND ABOUT VERY GOOD- ON SIDE 2 SO PERHAPS A "LOUD CUT" GAP-FILLER UNTIL YOU HAVE SAVED UP A SMALL FORTUNE TO BUY A MINT COPY [IF ONE EXISTS!!!]
POSTAGE/PACKING WILL BE £3.50.
HAPPY BIDDING!!!!
