Description
Vinyl has one forward skip on Whole Lotta Love, but no other skips. Surface noise is audible throughout the record to varying degrees, most noticeable in the quieter songs/passages, still there is some popcorn bacon sizzle at times. It's subjective of course, but in my opinion most of the time it does not overpower the music. *The power of this mix is still VERY evident.* Nonetheless the skip makes it G+. Otherwise it would be in VG territory. Visually shows a good number of hairline scuffs.
Jacket has a 5" split at the top and a 1" split at the bottom (please see pics). The letter J is written on the back. Some damage to inner gatefold (see pics).

Grading:
M: Mint. We don't grade anything mint unless it's still sealed, and even then we'll probably grade it "Near Mint" just to be safe.
NM: This is the closest to "Mint" that we will grade any record that is no longer sealed. Vinyl will be near flawless. There will be no scuffs or hairlines, and play as new.
EX: Vinyl will be extremely clean and glossy. There may be very light surface marks, but they will not effect playback at all.
VG+: Vinyl will still be very clean and free of skips or deep scratches, but may include mild surface marks, which may sound slightly, but do not detract from the overall listening experience.
VG: Vinyl may show wear, hairline scuffs, light scratches, etc., but will play through without skipping, and may play with some degree of surface noise.
G: Vinyl will most likely be well loved and show a good degree of wear. Obviously used. Playback will most likely have a good degree of surface noise.
