THE RECORD

THE LABELS

ORIGINAL YELLOW AND BLACK MONO LABELS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR AND YELLOW LOGO S ARE BOTH UNRUBBED .THE COLOURS RUN UNINTERRUPTED INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, WHICH HAS JUST 2-3 TINY SPIDER LINES AROUND IT SHOWING JUST WHY THIS SUPERB VINYL HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED

THE TAX CODE ON THE LABEL IS EMBOSSED MT THIS IS AN ERROR AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN KT

THE VINYL

THE HEAVYWEIGHT DISC LOOKS AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT CAME OUT OF THE PRESS. IT HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT S ORIGINAL SHEEN. IN DAYLIGHT THERE IS NOT A MARK ON IT,AND IT LOOKS FLAWLESS.

UNDER SPOTLIGHTS I SEE A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF DULL SURAFCE HANDLING LINES TOTALLY NON SOUNDING

PLAYING THE RECORD

THIS STEREO ALBUM PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING TO TALK ABOUT IS THE COMPLETE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND THE SOUND IS AS CLEAR AND SHARP AS IT POSSIBLE COULD BE.

THE EARLY STEREO BEATLES RECORDINGS WERE ALL JUST INCREDIBLE. MANY MANY COPIES WERE PLAYED ON SYSTEMS THAT HAD A STYLUS THAT WAS TOO HEAVY OR WORN AND CAUSED INVISIBLE GROOVE WEAR. THIS WOULD ONLY BE SPOTTED OR SHOULD I SAY HEARD WHEN PLAYING THE ALUM AND WOULD TAKE THE FORM OF BEHIND THE MUSIC STATIC AND BE CONTINUOUS. THIS VINYL IS FLAWLESS

GENTLY LOWERING THE STYLUS ONTO THE RUN IN GROOVE ALL YOU HEAR IS SILENCE. NO CRACKLES ANYWHERE, AND THIS INCREDIBLE STANDARD IS MAINTAINED ALL THROUGH BOTH SIDES. I CANNOT SAY THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD A COPY OF THIS ALBUM IN SUCH MAGNIFICENT ORIGINAL CONDITION

THE RUN IN IS SILENT, THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT, AND THE RUN OUT IS SILENT

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER AT ANY POINT. NO VINYL NOISE AND NOT EVEN ANY STATIC

NO CLICKS AND I AM CERTAIN I DIDN T EVEN HEAR ANY POPS EITHER

PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN YOURSELF AND IN PARTICULAR LISTEN TO YESTERDAY WHICH HAS A HISTORY OF DISTORTION AND SOUNDING POOR, BUT NOT ON THIS ONE. IT IS THE CLEANEST SOUNDING I HAVE EVER HEARD. NO ONE SECOND OF NOISE OR STATIC.

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LONG LISTEN AND YOU BE THE JUDGE

I JUST HAVE TO GRADE THIS INCREDIBLE AUDIO MINT

THE SLEEVE


SUPERB GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE PATENTS PENDING SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE WHICH CAN YELLOW BADLY HAS ON THIS COPY IS NOT AN ISSUE. IT IS STILL VERY WHITE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN, NO MARKS OR STAINS, AND NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. NO FOLDS OR BENDS, AND NO LAMINATE PEEL, FLAKE OR EVEN LIFT

THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR

THE ONLY MINUSCULE WEAR IS TO THE 4 CORNER TIPS WHICH HAVE THE BAREST RUBBING TO THEM SEE THE PICTURES AND YOU WILL SEE HOW TINY

THERE IS JUST ONE NEAR INVISIBLE LAMINATE PRESSURE LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINE, NONE ON THE TOP EDGE AND ONE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE 99 FREE FROM ANY WEAR AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE TINIEST PIN PRICK OF A CHIP TO THE TOP RIGHT CORNER

THE SPINE IS ALSO IN PRISTINE CONDITION. HAS THE TAPERED ENDS WHICH OFTEN LOSES THE LAMINATE, BUT THIS SPINE IS COMPLETELY LAMINATED AND TOTALLY FLAT AND 100 UNSQUASHED. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE REAR SURFACE IS UNLAMINATED AND HAS REMAINED IN A VERY WHITE CONDITION. EASILY STAINED AND MARKED THIS ONE ONLY HAS THE VERY LIGHTEST TOUCH OF MILD HANDLING TO THE PERIMETER EDGES

THE FLIPBACKS ARE PRISTINE, PERFECTLY ADHERED AND NO CRACKS OR LINES.

THE ORIGINAL RICE PAPER LINED INNER SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION.

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT

I CANNOT GET OVER JUST HOW INCREDIBLE THIS VINYL AND SLEEVE IS, AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO WIN ONE OF THE BEST AND CLEANEST EXAMPLES OF THIS ALBUM THERE IS TO COLLECT

IT WILL NEVER NEED UPGRADING AND IS TRULY AN INVESTMENT GRADE CONDITION

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