The Record Is Strictly Graded To Record Collector: Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging may have slight wear and/or creasing.

The Vinyl record has a clean, deep glossy shine to its surface in normal daylight with no visible or noticeable marks. Under bright halogen light there are very light sleeve handling and marks as would be expected on an LP vinyl record that is almost sixty years old. Nothing to worry about. Excellent condition, or better. In Audio test playback of the recording, the recording produces clean and spacious sounds with excellent mono audio, just a very, very slight pop in some quiet spots between songs, which is a great pleasure to listen to. No repeats, No skips. Excellent, or better.
