"Kid Galahad" DJ Preview Special

RCA Victor SP-45-118

I try to grade as accurately and with as much detail as possible. I will mention any flaws that I find, as no record is absolutely perfect! I play graded the 45 from start to finish on a modest high end system. Playgrade is a very good to very good plus.  I playgraded using a Benz Glider, Nottingham Horizon SE turntable w/ SAMA, Rega RB 600 tonearm, VanAlstine Transcendence 5 pure vacuum tube preamp, MacCormack DNA-1 amp w/ Platinum upgrade, and Bower & Wilkins DM-604 speakers. Biwired with Audioquest Mammoth on low end  and Audioquest live wires on upper end. Granite Audio Silver interconnects, Incognito tonearm wiring, and Express Heavyweight counterbalance, and a Ringmat Mark III platter.
 Vinyl has numerous sleeve marks and storage marks, but no deep scratches or skips, jumps etc. Very good does not mean very bad. Strict Goldmine standards used.. Visually the vinyl grades a strong vg in daylight with only  light hairline marks.  Vinyl still retains a very nice black gloss.   Labels  grade m- no hand writing or tears to  either label.  Record sleeve grades vg to vg+, with some tears on the opening, and the corners are pretty wrinkled. Several small rubber stamps "Aug 24 RECD" ofc and obc. Slightly discolored from age.
 
Record will be shipped in strong mailer with LP or 45 & cover seperated to prevent from damage to cover. I will also pack with cardboard stiffeners for extra protection. I will ensure that this record is packed very carefully.
