CONDITION
Slipcase: EXCELLENT +
Still perfectly in-shape, this superb example is perfectly clean & glossy with no scratching, creasing or storagewear to its high-gloss front panel. The only trace of handling wear are two 'thumbnail' wrinkles towards the right edge beside George's portrait. All of the exposed edges are sharp and completely unworn and with no tears, feathering or indentations to any. Both upper and lower ends are uncrushed and wear-free.
Outer Tray: EXCELLENT +
This easily damaged tray is presented here in near perfect condition. Both of the fold-over flaps are un-worn with just a single tiny crease mid-way down one. There is a touch of wear to the folded over edges but it has clearly only been removed from its slipcase a couple of times in its life.
Inner Tray: NEAR MINT
This fragile component has survived the fully intact and completely undamaged without even any of the usual stress tears to the inner corners. It is also perfectly in-shape and un-crushed throughout.
Book: NEAR MINT
A fine unread example of this lavish publication with glossy front & rear panels showing just a few light scuffs but no creasing or tears. All pages are fully intact with none missing or loose. This copy has the credits printed on page 8.
Disc:
Labels: NEAR MINT
An outstanding set with just two small spindle trails around the side 2 centre hole only.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Both surfaces appear 'as new' & totally unmarked in strong daylight with just some harmless wispy paper hairlines visible directly beneath halogen light.
Audio: NEAR MINT
Played only once or twice at most, the sound is flawless and wonderful throughout.
Cover: NEAR MINT
A superb clean & high-gloss example which retains a clean, unscratched high-gloss laminate all-round with no 'thumbnail' wrinkles or any other type of creasing. All corners are sharp and square and the seams and spine are in perfect shape.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT
Apple Poster: NEAR MINT
Factory-folded and never hung.
Estimate: €600-800
