SLEEVE
1ST EDITION PLAIN, NON SPRAY-PAINTED SANDPAPER SLEEVE. REALLY FANTASTIC EXCELLENT CONDITION, THE SLEEVE IS STRAIGHT WITH NO WARPING AT ALL. BECAUSE OF THE GLUE BETWEEN THE SANDPAPER AND THE PLAIN WHITE CARD SLEEVE THESE SLEEVES CAN BECOME WAVEY, THIS ONE IS COMPLETELY FLAT. IT IS IN ARCHIVAL CONDITION, NO RUBBING TO THE SANDPAPER. EASILY ONE OF THE BEST COPIES OF THE SLEEVE I HAVE SEEN.
VINYL
THE VINYL PLAYS WELL THROUGHOUT, THE SOUND IS EXCELLENT WITH NO JUMPS OR SKIPS AT ALL, ONLY MINOR GENERAL PLAY CRACKLE BETWEEN TRACKS AND NOTHING AT ALL THAT AFFECTS THE AUDIO AT ANY POINT. SOME MINOR ROTATIONAL POPS IN PLACES BUT THESE ARE MINIMAL AND DO NOT AFFECT THE AUDIO. THIS COPY HAS BEEN STORED PROPERLY FOR MANY YEARS AND MINIMALLY PLAYED, LIKELY LESS THAN 10 TIMES IN TOTAL.
VISUALLY THERE ARE SOME HANDLING MARKS AND WHISPY LINES BUT NO DEEP SCRATCHES, NOTHING FEELABLE AT ALL, NOTHING THAT AFFECTS PLAY. THE VINYL HAS A GREAT SHINE, IS FLAT WITH NO WARPING, OVERALL A FANTASTIC COPY.
FLEXI-DISC
THE FLEXI DISC IS IN GREAT CONDITION, PLAYS THROUGH WITH NO ISSUES, IS VISUALLY STRONG WITH NO SERIOUS DAMAGE OF ANY KIND.
THE VINYL AND FLEXI-DISC HAVE BEEN FULLY PLAY TESTED.
ITEM WILL BE SENT IN A STRONG MAILER WITH CARD STIFFENERS.
