The Beatles 'HELP!' UK - 1965 - Mono 1st Pressing
Matrix Side 1) XEX 549-2 MM Side 2) XEX 550-2 MP
Vinyl Playback: EX+ This record plays great with a top-quality mono delivery. Minimal surface noise between tracks the rare occasional tic during play. Overall Audio Playgrade: 9/10.
Cover: VG++ While there are a few small brief creases in the laminate, it remains clean and fully intact. There is a mild crease seen at the spine base, and some feathering is noted at the insert bottom corner. The spine text is clear and fully legible. The back fold-over tabs are neat and firmly in place. The matte finish shows some age foxing. No shelf wear, writing, tears, or seam splits. The cover is in solid condition.
Vinyl Visual: VG+ Clean and glossy with light wispy spider lines. These have very minimal impact on playback and do not detract from the overall listening experience. No scratches.
Labels: EX- Clean with several spindle lines.
Original Inner: EX- Clean with minor age foxing and a small, neat bottom seam split.
INV: 92

Grading endeavors to be conservative. (Please see below for grading scale)
All open vinyl is shipped in a new poly-inner, and the album cover in a poly-sleeve.
Vinyl is cleaned on a VPI 16.5 machine and test played 'start-to-finish' prior to listing, unless otherwise noted.
'Vinyl Playback' will always address egregious audible concerns. If you encounter any issues with your purchase, please contact me prior to leaving negative or neutral feedback.
My goal is your 100% complete satisfaction.
Vinyl Play Grades
M: Still sealed
M-: An opened item that appears 'M'. Virtually perfect playback.
NM: A few minor visual imperfections with virtually no audible impact. Top quality play.
EX: A few more surface marks than NM with very few audible imperfections. Quality play.
VG+: Surface scuffs and lines. Some light surface noise or a few tics or pops. Enjoyable play.
VG: Defined scuffs, lines, and scratches. More surface noise, tics, and pops than VG+. Acceptible play.
G: Heavy wear, deep scratches, with egregious surface noise, clicks, and pops. Poor play.
Hybrid Example: Vinyl which is VG in appearance but plays NM. = Visual Grade: VG Playback Grade: NM

Album covers are graded on a case by case basis given the myriad of issues which may impact each.
All grading is completely subjective and provided to the best of my ability.
