A perfect unblemished pair with no wear to or around either centre hole.A couple of very light spidery lines only
Visual: NEAR MINT
Pristine playing surfaces which appear clean & unmarked in strong daylight with just a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines visible only directly beneath my unforgiving halogen desk lamp. Both sides of this wonderful copy lie 100% flat on the turntable when playing.
Play: NEAR MINT
This copy has clearly barely, if ever been played. My single careful play-check at volume found the sound to be warm, clean & clear throughout with no traces of any groove/play-wear .
Cover
EXCELLENT
An extremely clean & strong example which display some light storagewear but no significant signs of wear. The front panel is bright & glossy with just some light scratching from storage but no 'thumbnails' or any other creases. Some faint toning to both opening edges but no other signs of age. Both seams are smooth & unstressed and the fully worded spine is undamaged.
Insert
EXCELLENT
Clean & unmarked

GRADINGS
MINT The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised, as Sealed or Unplayed will be mint.
EXCELLENT The record shows some signs of having been played, possibly with light surface marks but there will be very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD + The record may have scuff marks and signs of some wear but will still play almost perfectly throughout, with only barely detectable crackles or pops. A slight noise at the beginning is allowable, but the remainder must be nearly flawless. Definitely no scratches or gouges that a touch with a dry finger can feel. The cover may only have the slightest signs of normal wear.
VERY GOOD The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
ALL RECORDS ARE PACKED IN PROPER MAILERS WITH STIFFENERS
