CONDITION

SLEEVE: (G) FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK SLEEVE PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE LTD IS TATTY WITH HEAVY WEAR & CREASING FROM HANDLING AND STORAGE. NOTICEABLE RINGWEAR AND CORNER CREASING. THE BACK TOP RIGHT CORNER HAS HEAVY CREASING AND LOOKS LIKE IT HAS COME UNSTUCK AT SOME POINT AND POSSIBLY BEEN RE-GLUED. SCUFFING/ROUNDING TO CORNERS. NO WRITING NO STICKERS NO RIPS & NO SPLITS. 

SPINE: (VG-) CREASING AND ROUGHNESS IN PLACES WITH HEAVY RUBBING TO CORNERS. WEAR TO A FEW OF THE LETTERS BUT ALL THE TEXT IS CLEARLY READABLE.  NO SPLITS.  

INNER: (VG+) ORIGINAL PAPER INNER WITH ONLY DISCOLOURATION FROM AGE AND STORAGE. NO SPLITS NO RIPS NO WRITING.

LABELS: (EX+) BOTH LABELS ARE SUPERB WITH ONLY A FEW LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS AROUND THE CENTRE HOLE. THE LABELS ARE VERY CLEAN WITH NO SCUFFING NO WRITING NO STICKERS. STUNNING LABELS!

VINYL VISUALLY: SIDE 1 (VG-) SIDE 2 (VG) BOTH SIDES ARE FLAT & GLOSSY AND WHEN VIEWED UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT BOTH SIDES HAVE LOTS OF LIGHT PAPER SCUFFS AND A FEW HAIRLINES (MORE ON SIDE A) FROM USE AND POSSIBLY INCORRECT CLEANING. SIDE B HAS SCATTERED MISTING WHEN ANGLED UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT AND A COUPLE OF SMALL SCRATCHES THAT CAUSE THE POPS MENTIONED BELOW. NOTHING SERIOUS. VIRTUALLY ALL THE MARKS CAN ONLY BE SEEN WHEN ANGLED UNDER BRIGHT. VERY STRICT GRADING! PLEASE LISTEN TO THE WHOLE ALBUM BY CHECKING THE LINK BELOW THE PLAYING GRADE.

PLAYING GRADE: SIDE 1 (VG) SIDE 2 (VG-) BOTH SIDES HAVE BEEN CAREFULLY LISTENED TO ON BEYER-DYNAMIC DT-150 HEADPHONES ON A COUPLE OF SYSTEMS WITH A SHURE WHITE LABEL CARTRIDGE & STEREO NEEDLE AND OVERALL BOTH SIDES PLAY AT LEAST VERY GOOD IF NOT HIGHER WITH SUPERB CLEAR SOUND AND NO DISTORTION. LIGHT BACKGROUND CRACKLE NOTICEABLE IN PLACES DURING THE QUIETER PARTS AND BETWEEN TRACKS (MORE ON SIDE B). A FEW ISOLATED LIGHT/MILD POPS ON BOTH SIDES. THIS VINYL HAS BEEN STORED UNTOUCHED FOR 40 YEARS SO MAY BENEFIT FROM A PROFESSIONAL MACHINE CLEAN. I AM BEING HIGHLY CRITICAL AND MY PLAY GRADE IS ALWAYS BASED ON WHAT I CAN HEAR ON BEYER-DYNAMIC DT-150 HEADPHONES WITH THE TREBLE TURNED UP FULL! EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION ESPECIALLY AS A GENUINE EARLIEST UK 1ST PRESSING ON THE BLACK AND SILVER PROBE LABEL! THE PRODUCTION ON THIS ALBUM IS SIMPLY AWESOME AND IS FAR SUPERIOR TO ANY DIGITAL REMASTER OR VINYL REPRESSING. A PRESENTABLE AND GREAT SOUNDING COPY OF AN INCREDIBLY RARE PLUS UK 1ST PRESSING NOT TO BE MISSED! JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AND LISTEN TO THE WHOLE ALBUM - CHECK THE LINK BELOW!!

GRADING

All records are graded using the Record Collector Grading System with (+) or (-) to show a slightly higher or lower grade.

M (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 lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition.

EX (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.

VG (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.

G (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.

F (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.

POSTAGE & PACKAGING

I always charge less postage than what it actually costs me. If the actual cost of postage is less then I will refund the difference. All records are posted fully insured. In the UK they are sent via Royal Mail 1st Class Recorded delivery (Special Delivery at no extra charge if the record is £50 or over). Overseas all records are posted via Royal Mail International Tracked & Signed, tracked or signed depending on what options are available. All vinyl is posted using correct card record mailers/cruciform boxes with at least 4 cardboard stiffners. The sleeve is always sent in a new poly outer and the vinyl is put in a new polylined paper inner outside of the sleeve to avoid splits/damage during transit. 7" vinyls sleeves are sent in a new PVC outer and the vinyl is put in a new card inner outside of sleeve. I will always do everything I can to guarantee that your record arrives in the same condition it leaves me.
