CONDITION

DISC: This UK 1st pressing Stereo LP is visually in EXCELLENT+ condition. Both sides show full gloss, with very few light sleeve removal marks and signs of play. Both Pye labels show minimal spindle trails.

COVER: The Garrod & Lofthouse outside-laminated gatefold sleeve is in VERY GOOD condition. This sleeve is rather flimsy to hold such a heavy disc, and the laminate has become unstuck near the spine and edges. The spine has a slight tear at the top on the inside, and the edges have wear. Also the LP sleeve flap has become partially unglued. Overall, however, this fragile cover shows normal wear for its 46 years and is still quite presentable.

GRADING INFORMATION

• I grade conservatively. MINT is a sealed LP; NEAR MINT is an open LP/cover
  with virtually no signs of use/wear; EXCELLENT is a well-looked-after LP/cover
  with light signs of use/wear; VERY GOOD+ is an LP/cover with average signs of
  use/wear but is not trashed.
• I use unforgiving sunlight and incandescent light to visually grade each LP.
• I don’t make unverifiable claims as to how many plays a non-sealed LP has had.
