Description

The record is located in Italy


NOTE: Original  1973 German 1st press.

Record conditions  (VISUAL):  Mint-

Description: On visual inspection this looks almost as new in my opinion. I find it hard to even see a blemish on the playing surface, any that could possibly be seen angled under a strong light bulb would be sleeve removal hairlines only. The vinyl lays perfectly flat on the turntable and is free of any warping.

(Playgrade is M-)

Cover conditions : EX+

Description: laminate front and back gatefold sleeve, squared spine cover, 2 corners are bumped otherways near perfect. (see last 2 photos)

Label conditions : M

Description: Perfect, no spindle hole lines visible.

Payment must be made within 6 days from the end of listing except you are watching more items of mine so let me know about it.

I ship in strong cardboard mailers with two pads and record accurately separated from cover to prevent splits during shipment.

Read accurately for shipping and payment infos before sending payment!!!!
If in doubt ask for an invoice especially for multiple items purchases.

Record Collector Magazine Grading System

MINT The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. 


NEAR MINT (NM OR M-)
A good description of a NM record is “it looks like it just came from a retail store and it was opened for the first time.” In other words, it’s nearly perfect. Many dealers won’t use a grade higher than this, implying (perhaps correctly) that no record or sleeve is ever truly perfect.

NM records are shiny, with no visible defects. Writing, stickers or other markings cannot appear on the label, nor can any “spindle marks” from someone trying to blindly put the record on the turntable. Major factory defects also must be absent; a record and label obviously pressed off center is not Near Mint. If played, it will do so with no surface noise. (NM records don’t have to be “never played”; a record used on an excellent turntable can remain NM after many plays if the disc is properly cared for.)

NM covers are free of creases, ring wear and seam splits of any kind

EXCELLENT The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. 

VERY GOOD The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. 

GOOD The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc. 

FAIR The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. 

POOR The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing. 

BAD The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
