Condition :-

 

I have used the rare record price guide gradingsystem to support with the grading of this record (outlined below).  

 

Sleeve - Overall the sleeve has no worryingconcerns and is graded at EX.  The front of the sleeve has some smallcreases in the lamination and some slight wearing especially around thecorners and edges of the sleeve. The rear of the sleeve has some smallcreasing in the cardboard and again some slight wearing around the corners andedges.  The spine of the sleeve shows no worrying concerns with a smallamount of creasing in the cardboard. 

 

Vinyl Record - Overall the vinyl record shows noworrying concerns and is graded at VG/EX, I have been very strict on the grading with this record but please get in touch if you would like additional photos or have any questions regarding the condition.  Side 1 has some small surfacemarks that in no way affect playing or sound quality (I have used a highquality stylus and played through).  Side 1 also has some noticeable spindlemarks.  Side 2 again has some small surface marks (more than side 1).  Side 2 also has noticeable spindlemarks.  The record itself plays through well and produces a lovely sound.

In order to assist everyone whobuys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set ofstandards for the condition of second-hand records, cassettes and CDs. Anyonebuying or selling records through the magazine must use our conditions to statewhat amount of wear and tear the disc, its sleeve and/or contents have beensubject to. The seven standard condition categories, and a description of whateach one means, are listed below:

 

MINT: The record itself is in brandnew condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. Thecover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are inperfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should beMint. 

 

EXCELLENT: The record shows somesigns of having been played, but there is very little lessening in soundquality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. 

 

VERY GOOD: The record has obviouslybeen played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality,despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wearand tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

The cover and contents will betorn, stained and/or defaced.
