All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if successful.

This record is in excellent condition. The labels do have light spindle marks visible but no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. The centre isn't loose and overall they are in good shape. 

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are very clean, free from anything remotely serious and have just a couple of light lines visible in normal light. There are a few more extremely light wispy hairlines visible under very bright white light but again nothing serious. The record has no scuffs or blemishes and has a beautiful vivid shine.

I carefully play tested the record and it plays really well. It lays flat but there must an extremely slight storage warp as there is just a fraction of movement in the record arm noticeable on side 2. This is very minor however and of course has no affect on the sound produced which is superb. Its crisp, clear and has little interference or surface noise with a trace in the run in and between tracks. There are no skips, sticks or annoying clicks and no other serious musical issues, it was a thoroughly enjoyable play test.

The gatefold sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It has only slight wear/rubbing to the edges and corners, and the writing along the spine is all clearly legible. There are of course no splits or weak areas and there are no tears or pen marks anywhere. There is almost no creasing and only the slightest possible ring mark visible when tilted on the back. Inside the gatefold is also in great shape but does have a 1cm scuff on opposite sides and two much smaller scuffs in the far top right area. So overall the sleeve is in great shape with just the mild corner wear and the small scuffs inside the gatefold as its issues.

It contains a plain white inner which is in excellent- condition. This has slight creasing and discolouring but no splits, pen marks, tears or any other serious issues.

The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, within 24hrs of payment to ensure swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my Ebay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
