All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested on my revealing system, which is a Technics deck with a good quality SME 3009 tonearm and Ortofon stylus fitted. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if successful.

This record is in excellent- condition. It does have a few light spindle marks visible on the lightly textured labels, but no pen marks anywhere. There are no scuffs or any other serious issues and overall the labels are in great shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have light surface lines and marks visible when tilted into normal light. There is nothing deep or serious on either side, just light surface lines to both. More of these show when viewed under bright white light but again nothing sinister or serious. The record has a lovely livid shine, no blemishes and no serious scuffs.

I play tested the record and it plays really well. It lays flat and there is no movement in the record arm. The sound produced is great; its crisp, dynamic and other than a trace in the run and between songs there is almost no interference. There are no skips, sticks, or annoying clicks and there is barely a pop or crackle during the audio. Its a very enjoyable audio experience and was a pleasure to play test. 

The laminated sleeve is in very good condition. It has wear to the edges and corners(pics), mainly on the spine and the writing along this has been affected. Despite the wear to the edge there are no splits, although the wear to the spine has caused it to become fragile. Other than the edge wear there are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere, but there is age related discolouring/grubbiness to both sides, but mainly the white areas on the front. So overall it has a few issues but is still solid all round and I think is fairly graded as VG. It contains a plain white poly-lined inner in very good condition, with no splits but discolouring, mild creasing and a small pen mark.

The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to ensure swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. I will also happily provide a sound clip of the record in action, so if you want this just ask. 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.
