THE LABELS

THE WHITE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR HAS REMAINED UNRUBBED, AND THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ANYWHERE. THIS COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK NUMBERS ARE ALSO IN TOP CONDITION THERE ARE JUST 1-2 SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THE RECORD GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND COULDN'T LOOK ANY BETTER. ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE HAS BEEN RETAINED.AND IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS TOTALLY FLAWLESS! THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OR ANY SIGNS OF HANDLING ON THE DISCS, AND EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THE RECORD ONLY SHOWS A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES

THE TEST PLAY

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THESE DISCS SOUNDS. THE SILENT BITS ARE SILENT OR NEAR SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, AND NOT ONE SECOND OF VINYL NOISE

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS

THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT

ALL I HEARD WERE A COUPLE OF THE MORE SILENT PASSAGES WITH A LITTLE LIGHT AND VERY LOW LEVEL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND
NO TICS OR POPS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO NEAR MINT

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

THE TEST PRESS NEVER CAME WITH A SLEEVE
I HAVE HOUSED IT IN A DIE CUT CARD SLEEVE
