THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BLACK LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ANYWHERE ON EITHER SIDE.
THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND THEREFORE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES ON THE SURFACE BY THE HOLE
THERE IS ALSO A STRAND OF RESIDUAL VINYL STILL ATTCHED TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND COULDN'T LOOK ANY BETTER.
ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE HAS BEEN RETAINED. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OR ANY SIGNS OF HANDLING ON THE DISC, AND IN DAYLIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS FLAWLESS.
UNDER SPOTLIGHTS I CAN SEE SOME LIGHT HAIRLINE HANDLING LINES AND A FEW WISPY LINES ON SIDE TWO
PLAYING THE RECORD
THE RECORD PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH
THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER
TOTALLY SILENT LINKING GROOVES, AND I DIDN'T HEAR ANY MORE THAN A FEW TINY DUST POPS OR TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH OF SIDE ONE
SIDE TWO HAS A LITTLE LOW LEVEL BACKGROUND ON A FEW RANDOM OCCASIONS AND SOME LITTLE STATIC LIKE TICS HERE AND THERE
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST SUPERB AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD TO PERFECTION
A HIGH GRADE COLLECTIBLE THAT PLAYS TO AN EX+ STANDARD.
THE SLEEVE
NON LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE STILL IN THE ORIGINAL SHOP SHRINKWRAP
THE FRONT SURFACE HAS PERFECT COLOURS
NO RUBBING AND RETAINED PERFECTLY
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR ANY RECORD SHAPE
THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THERE ARE ZERO PRESSURE LINES NEAR THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE TOP EDGE IS PERFECTLY COLOURED AND HAS UNBLEMISHED CORNER TIPS
THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IDENTICAL
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE COLOUR IS RETAINED AND BOTH ENDS ARE PERFECT
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP

THE CARD INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO IN MINT CONDITION
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE MINT
