Why this grade

Still sealed, so the labels and the run-out of all six sides are out of reach. The barcode 0190295015916 on the sleeve sticker and the red hype sticker matches the owner's note ("0190295015916 Sealed") and is carried by three Parlophone vinyl versions on the master: 20094784 (Europe), 20087752 (Europe) and 20094067 (Worldwide). Shared barcode is corroboration, not a discriminator. MADE IN THE E.U and LIMITED EDITION lean toward the two Europe entries, but the Worldwide entry can't be ruled out on that alone. The version list is incomplete, so an uncatalogued pressing can't be excluded either. - Confirmed by the owner, checked by eye against Discogs release 20094784 on 2026-10-05; still sealed, so the discs themselves remain unseen.

Personnel, production and artwork credits are sourced from Discogs release 20087653, the Europe CD and this master's main release, and apply to the recording rather than to this pressing. Where this copy's own packaging carries the producer, publisher or copyright lines, they are quoted in the evidence above.

Condition, from the photographs

A photograph cannot grade a record - this is a description of what is visible, not a grade.

  • Sleeve: general handling wear with some edge and corner softening; no splits or seam separation visible in these shots.
  • Vinyl: light surface marks and handling sheen catch the light. No visible deep scratches, warping or edge damage in these photographs. The labels are clean and unmarked.

Nothing on this page comes from playing the record. No Goldmine grade is claimed for it, or any other. I have no record of where this copy came from.

What is settled, and what is not

Confirmed by the owner on 2026-10-05, checked by eye against Discogs release 20094784. The reasoning below is what stood before that.

Open it and read the run-out etchings on all six sides against the Matrix / Runout entries of 20094784, 20087752 and 20094067.
