The Vinyl:
This is the original thick heavier chunky slab of vinyl only found like this on the earliest pressings. On visual inspection I can’t see any needle scratches or indeed any marks that would cause any clicks or pops. Any marks that could possibly be seen anglerd in strong light would be light whyspy sleeve removal type only. The playing surface is lovely.
The Audio Quality:
I have played this vinyl at very loud volume prior to this listing on a top system. Importantly using a dedicated mono cartridge. The audio is cristal clear and vibrant through out no distortion or any signs of groove wear at all. I heard no clicks or pops during the play of this vinyl. Lovely sounding copy. Audio graded at very near mint in my opinion.
The Matrix:
Side 1″XEX 481-3N”
Side 2″XEX 482-3N”
The Mother Stampers:
Side 1 “3” “GGM”
Side 2 “2” “TA”
The Labels:
These are the original 1st issue Parlophone Labels: feature “Sold In The UK….” text across the labels (only 1st press) K.T. tax code is stamped on side 2 (correct for this early pressing) Any spidering can barely be seen angled to the light and there is little if no spindle wear the hole is perfectly round. Light rubbing on the labels to mention only. This has obviously only had very minimal play in my opinion.
The Record Sleeve:
This is the original Emitex record sleeve light creasing, browning, becoming fragile with age only in lovly condition.
The Cover:
This is the original and rarest to find 1st issue E.J Day flip back cover laminated front only. There are no real nasty creases on the front to mention this is nice and straight as it should be just minor laminate creases at the bottom edges and one or two in other places nothing too bad. no edge splits or tares. The rear is also lovely any storage wear is just minimal. I would grade this at least excellent if not much better in my opinion.
Summery:
A nice classic original rarer E.Day cover complete with emitex sleeve all in all nice copy free of nasty scratches.
