Grading

NEAR MINT

Vinyl: This record appears virtually flawless. A very minor scuff and very

little else can appear on the vinyl. It should play without any noise over the flaw.

The flaw is very hard to see.

Cover: It looks as close to perfect with only minor signs of wear and or age.

Minor impressions to the cover (due to the outer edge of the vinyl resting inside)

may be acceptable, however the artwork is be as close to perfect as can be.

VG ++  (close to Near Mint)

Vinyl: Minor scuffs which are only slightly visible. There are no scratches, a few scuff.

Cover: Artwork is still as close to perfect as can be. Some impression to the cover

(minor outer ring wear) but no ink wear! Some slight creases to the corners,

but not wrinkled and obtrusive to the eye. The corners can show white (where

the artwork pasted slick was) meaning, slight wear. No seam splits or writing

on the cover or taped repairs can make this grade.

VERY GOOD PLUS  ( VG+)

Vinyl: record shows wear, surface scuffs. The vinyl still has a great luster,

but the flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye. If the flaws don't cause

any surface noise, the vinyl can still make the VG+ grade.

Cover: A virtually clean cover, but may have small writing on it. The artwork looks

clean with slightly more aging. The back of the cover usually gives away the age

of the cover. Flat white paper will be somewhat yellow yet. The corners will be

slightly dog eared yet no crackly bends, defacing the artwork.

 Sorry for the mess. This item has a wrong title. I forgot the change.This is the box with the 9 Beethoven symphonies!
