Condition Report (Please Read Before Bidding)
This record is being sold in as-is, vintage condition. Please review the high-resolution close-up photos carefully to evaluate the condition yourself.
• Vinyl Condition: Good Plus (G+) to Very Good (VG)
• Visual: The vinyl surface shows a noticeable amount of light surface scratches, paper scuffs, and hairlines across both sides.
• Audio Note: Due to the scuffs, expect some light surface noise, ticks, or crackle during playback, typical of a well-loved vintage jazz record. There are no deep, feelable gouges that should cause skipping, but it is a player copy rather than a pristine archive piece.
• Labels: The center labels remain relatively clean with bright turquoise color, showing light spindle wear around the center hole.
• Jacket (Sleeve) Condition: Fair (G) / Poor
• Seams & Edges: The jacket exhibits heavy vintage wear. The top and bottom seams have significant splitting that has been previously repaired/stabilized with clear tape.
• Corners: Heavy corner wear, fraying, and minor cardboard loss.
• Surfaces: Visible ring wear, staining/foxing spots on the white back cover, and clear tape aging along the spine and opening edge.
• Spine: Fragmented text due to splitting and heavy edge wear.
