The album cover is VG+.   It does not have shrink wrap.  There is scuffing on both sides of the cover.  The back cover has soiling and staining.  The spine seam shows wear.  A former owner repaired the top and bottom seams with white tape.  At first glance, it isn't really noticeable.  It is a nice repair job....but a repair job nonetheless.  The corners are lightly crumpled and the opening shows light wear.

The record is VG.  The labels are the original black with silver writing.  The labels show light wear, mainly around the hole.  There are light spindle marks on the labels.  The record plays all the way through with background noise, but no skips. 

My rating chart for records is similar to that of Goldmine grading.

NM (Near Mint) A nearly perfect record. No marks, sometimes never played.  A picture sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling.   This is a grade I seldom, if ever, use.  Sleeves can be wrinkled and records scuffed right from the record store.

VG++ (Very Good++) Record will show some very light scratches or scuffs which shouldn't be audible when played. The picture sleeve will show some ring wear and possibly lightly turned up corners or slight seam splits.

VG+ (Very Good+) Record will show more scratches and scuffs than a VG++ rating. It will play with some audible noise from these marks. Labels may be marred or have stickers or residue from stickers. The same will be true of the picture sleeve.

VG (Very Good) Record will be well worn and audible noise will be more noticeable from scratches and scuffs.  Labels and picture sleeves will be marred or have stickers or residue from stickers.
