LP: VG++: Excellent gloss; 3 sides show very gentle use with few scuffs or scratches. Side 1 shows area with light short scratches and scuffs.

Grading

Near Mint (NM): A NM album is nearly perfect. The LP shows no obvious signs of wear such as scratches or scuffs. LP gloss is excellent. The labels are unmarked and have no spindle marks. The cover has no creases, folds, seam splits or stains. The cover opening is crisp. The inner sleeve and all original inserts have no creases, splits or marks.

Very Good Plus (VG+): The album was gently used and shows minimal signs that it was played and otherwise handled. The LP may have scattered light scuffs or a small number of very light scratches. LP gloss, while still high, may have slight scattered discoloration. The labels may have slight spindle marks. The cover may have slight ring wear, lightly bumped corners, or neat writing. The opening may show some wear. No seam splits will be evident. The inner sleeve may have slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split.

Very Good (VG): Very few of these will be offered. A VG album will have many of the defects previously described in combination such that the album would not qualify as VG+.
