etailed description
Vinyl: The vinyl looks superb and has retained its original high sheen. It has clearly been very well cared for. Under bright light just fine hairlines and sleeve removal-type marks were visible on either side. I have played the entire LP and it sounds brilliant. There is some background noise and crackle audible in the quiet passages and the run-ins/outs, fades, silent grooves and intros, and the occasional random click or pop but there is absolutely nothing loud or intrusive.
Other than this, I noticed ten barely-audible soft clicks in the long fade to 'On the Run', a single-groove skip at the very beginning of 'Money' during the cash-till noise, just before the music starts, two very soft clicks in the left channel in 'Us and Them', six soft clicks in the right channel and, at the very end of the LP,eighteen clicks in the heartbeat fade-out. However, these points are mentioned purely for the sake of accuracy and completeness as there is nothing loud or intrusive. This was a real pleasure to listen to.
Labels: Both labels look great with absolutely no signs of damage, writing, stickers etc and just typical light spindle marking.
しかし、上記のことは、純粋に、厳密さと完全さを期するためにお伝えしているもので、大きなノイズだったり、煩わしいものでは一切ありません。本当に楽しんで聴けるものでした。
レーベル：両面のラベルとも、ダメージ、書き込み、シール等は一切なく、中心穴に典型的な薄いスピンドルマークがあるのみで、とてもよい状態です。
レーベル：レーベルは両方とも素晴らしく、損傷や書き込み、ステッカーなどは全くなく、あるのは典型的な軽い紡錘状のマークだけです。
ラベル: どちらのラベルも無傷で、汚れなどはありませんが、スピンドルによる擦れのあとかわずかにあります。
Sleeve: The not-quite-black sleeve is really nice and clean with no damage, writing, splits, tears or stickers etc and just light signs of use. There are a few marks on the front and slight ring wear.Edge wear: There is moderate wear to the edges, mainly the top edge. The spine has minimal wear, except at the corners.
Corner wear: moderate
Inner sleeve: The original black poly-lined inner sleeve has no splits or damage other than a few very small nicks at the opening and a small (1cm) tear at the centre hole.
Other inserts: The pyramid poster has no damage other than a few small marks on a couple of panels of the rear. This poster is MATT on the rear only. The band poster is FULLY MATT on both sides.
コーナーのスレ：わずか
インナースリーブ：オリジナルの黒いポリエチレンの裏地のついたスリーブには入れ口のごく小さな切れ目と真ん中の穴の1センチの小さな破け以外に割れや損傷はありません。
その他の挿入物：ピラミッド型のポスターには裏側の2つのパネルの2、3の小さな印以外には損傷はありません。このポスターは裏面のMATTだけです。バンドのポスターは両面にFULLY MATTが載っています。
エッジの使用：エッジには、特に上のエッジに適度な使用が見られます。スパイン（背）にはコーナーを除き最小の使用しか見られません。
コーナーの使用：適度
内部のスリーブ：オリジナルのポリエステルラインの入った黒いスリーブには、数個のとても小さな傷が入り口にあり、隅の穴に小さい(1cm)切れ目があるのを除いて、裂け目やダメージはありません。
その他の掲載：ピラミッドのポスターはパネルの裏面に数個の小さなマークがついているだけで、ダメージはありません。このポスターは裏面のみマットな出来になっています。バンドのポスターは両面、完全にマットなしあがりになっています。
It has a very small tear in the top left corner and some small pieces of sellotape on two corners. There is some minor creasing along the top edge and some more significant creasing and damage to the top right panel, but it is intact and complete. The two Crack-Back Fasprint PERMANENT stickers are unused with no damage.
Detracting features not covered above - none.
