Description

This is a lot of three vintage Christmas records in VG+ condition for the media and with VG+ covers.  Each plays well with only a few minor issues to sound quality and record appearance as listed here:

That Christmas Feeling (1973 reissue of 1958 record) - Bing Crosby - Side 1 has a few light scuffs around track 5 & 6 but it plays through well.  Side 2 near EXC.  Both sides high gloss and have only a little occasional background noise that does not impact listening experience.

The Andy Williams Christmas Album (1963 record) - Andy Williams - A few very light crackles here and there, but not disrupting. High gloss as well.  Side 2 around track 2 is where we noticed light background static.

Season's Greetings from Perry Como (1959 record) - Perry Como - Very similar condition to the first two albums, good listening experience with only a small number of occasional imperfections. Cover has a split seam top right corner about 2" long.

All records have minor paper scuffs and a few hairline scratches visible.

Overall, these were very good and enjoyable records to listen to.

Actual items are shown, please see photos closely.

Note to grading scale: Many of our records are play tested, and this will be mentioned in the listing description. If play tested IS NOT mentioned, then a visual grade has been assigned with confidence.

Mint - We will never use MINT for an unsealed record, with one caveat, unless we witnessed, or caused, the seal to break, and we personally know it has been un-played, or only played once by us. We categorize almost all SEALED records as mint (as close as possible, and as intended, by the ability of the press) unless there is obvious damage, said above, to the plastic and cover that could impact the record inside. Covers that deserve the MINT grade must appear perfect, no cutouts, no rim wear, plastic completely intact all around (no tears) with little to no wear or discoloration.

Near Mint - We will we use NEAR MINT (or NM-) for an unsealed record, if it clearly is in great condition and has been play tested. No scuffs, no scratches to the playable surface, plays great (once) without sound/music interference. May have some very minor imperfections. The best we will often assign is the next lower grade - Excellent (EXC+, or EXC++).

Excellent - (EXC+, or EXC++). Very few imperfections, usually play tested at least once, and it played strong with no, to almost none, noticeable distracting sounds effects or interference with the music.

Very Good Plus (VG+, or VG++). Physically in great condition with some minor scratches, other defects that do not significantly affect play, like a few paper scuffs, or hairlines. Usually play tested (unless noted), with some very minor noticeable imperfections, such as light snaps, pops, crackles. 

Very Good (Very Good VG, Very Good Minus, VG-). Noticeable imperfections (some scuffs or scratches), but play tested to not have over-bearing snaps, pops, crackles (some maybe, particularly allowed in fades) but these should have no skips on the huge majority of players.

Good - We strive to not sell (and almost always do not sell) records graded less than a strong VG-, unless it is highly collectible, rare, or for some other reason is in great demand. These records will have noticeable and significant imperfections, and they will be described in the listing.
