Light band of surface fading one edge, no effect on sound quality, The record plays through very well and is certainly very acceptable to the strictest ear. 

The record has been professionally cleaned before sale and it plays through very well with only the lightest of surface/background noise detected and this is mainly restricted to the quieter sections and lead ins, there is very little noticable background noise between the tracks, which is always a good sign, light background noise detected and restricted to lead ins and quieter sections as is expected and quite normal on older records that have been played.  

The Labels are both very good, both Labels show only minimal signs of any spindle marking and there is no wear to the centre hole, there is no writing, very clean labels. Gramophone Co Ltd text around rim and Made in Gt Britain horizontally across base of label.

The record has been played and tracks play as noted below: 

Side A plays very well with only the very lightest of any noticable background noise detected on the quieter sections of the record, does not affect the play quality.

Overall play on record is excellent.
