The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear and only a VERY few light spindle marks!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  Most of these 50s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only a VERY few light hairlines, and only a few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!!  It is great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with barely ANY clicks/pops AT ALL, NO sticking, NO jumps, NO hiss, and only some EXTREMELY low level background crackle in places (unavoidable on these 1950S records)!!!!  There is NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Thicker Paper' 'Square Text' inner sleeve which is in AWESOME condition!!!!  The 1st Press FULLY Laminated 'Half-Moon' Flipback Cover is in GREAT condition and absolutely MILES better than the usual 'trashed' examples that show up!!!!  It has barely ANY edge wear AT ALL (NOT through the colour), barely ANY spinal wear (NO splits), only slight corner wear AT ALL (NOT through the colour), only a few light creases (cover is flat looking), VERY shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the unlaminated back is in BRILLIANT condition with NO writing, NO grubbyness, and NO yellowing!!!!  Not only that but ALL the flipbacks are FULLY intact - with NO missing pieces, and NO repairs!!!!  The only minor thing to mention about this cover is that there is a small split in the top right corner of the cover front (see picture) - though this has been AMAZINGLY well repaired and is PERFECTLY strong!!!!  This cover is MILES better than the usual 'trashed' examples that show up - and is one is VERY presentable indeed!!!!  This cover must grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed) if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
