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 purchased.
This record is in excellent condition. It does have spindle marks visible on each label but there is not an excessive amount. There are no pen marks or scuffs to the labels but there is some light 'staining' or markings to side 2. Overall they are tidy however with all text legible and no major issues.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything at all major or hugely noticeable and it still has a nice lustre. It has some thin faint lines, minor sleeve marks and general signs of handling however. None of these are at all major or deep but they can be seen lightly when angled in normal light and under bright light. Overall a used vintage lp that has some light signs of this but is also still in good playable condition with no nasty or serious issues.
I play tested the record and it played very well. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. The audio produced is very enjoyable with no skips, sticks or clicks and good clarity. I noted light amounts of surface noise in the run ins and the most occasional faint splutter in the actual audio but nothing at all serious. Overall it plays well with good clarity and no serious issues. It was an enjoyable play test free of major issues and with only minor traces of light interference.
The gatefold sleeve is in very good+ condition. It has very little rubbing or wear to the edges and corners with the text on the spine all clearly legible. There is no splits or weak areas and no tears, scuffs or pen marks. There is however age related grubbiness and discolouring throughout. There is some grubby marks dotted over the front, and also discolouring to the white areas. The rear also has some light fading or partial ring marks showing. Inside the gatefold has no major issues but again has some grubbiness and discolouring, with also a small stain to the far right side. Overall a solid sleeve with no heavy amounts of wear but some grubbiness and discolouring as mentioned. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.
It contains its original plain white inner but this is heavy discoloured and showing its age. The record will therefore be sent in a brand new plain white replacement.
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.
