Condition - Grading is Visual Under Bright Light
Cover is a nice VG+. The front cover graphics are beautiful and vivid. The front cover shows some surface and edge wear with several scratches that wrinkle the lamination but do not break the paper. The right corners are slightly worn and bumped. The upper left corner has a touch of seam wear and the lower right corner has 5/8 inch seam wear. The rest of the seams are nice and the printing on the spine is sharp and clear. No splits. The back cover slick is nice with some writing in pen on the upper right edge and some light surface wear. "Printed and Packaged by GEM Albums, Inc. N.Y." on the bottom right corner. A beautiful cover despite the flaws.
LP is a nice glossy VG+ with some light sleeve spotting and hairlines with a small group of light hairlines at about 8'o clock on side B, nothing feelable or serious. Labels are beautiful with some faint marks visible under bright angled light. Includes audiophile inner sleeve. A pretty record despite the flaws.
Overall not perfect or NM but a nice collectable copy of a rare jazz LP. This copy should make most collectors very happy. Check out my other auctions for more rare and interesting records.

Grading
Grading is SS (still sealed), NM, VG+, VG. The myriad of grading systems on Ebay is a good indicator of the subjective nature of grading. In my opinion NM is close to perfect with one or two very minor flaws, VG+ is above average and collectable and VG is average used condition but probably the best choice for playing. I'm a collector and try to describe LPs as accurately as possible, the way I would want them described to me. The pictures should at least give a good indication of the condition of the covers and labels. Please see my seller feedback for comments on my grading. If you don't agree with how I'm calling a record that is your privilege but with all respect please don't bid.
