This will almost certainly sound well stupid to people who know what they're doing but do picture vinyl ever lose their picture through repeating playing??

Not that I'm aware. I've got pic discs from years ago that still look brand new after hundreds of plays.

picture discs are created by putting two smaller peices of clear vinyl together, with a picture in between them.. the needle never touches the picture.

LOL. Fade away....

I've seen a Michael Jackson picture disc. When he was still black too.

Actually picture disc's are put on over the record, it is pressed into the vinyl when the vinyl is pressed, it is very thin extra layer placed on top of the vinyl and if not done correctly makes the vinyl sound like crap.

I have never heard of them wearing out like a dub plate, I assume the thin layer of vinyl (the picture part) melts into the other vinyl when pressed thus becoming part of the vinyl.
