Matrix #s/Identifiers: Side 1 run-out: RCR 1017 A-1   ARC 6-17-70   Pete Huthich(?) (all etched) Side 2 run-out: RCR 1017 B-2   ARC 6-17-70  Pete Huthich(?) (all etched) The name that is etched in the run-out area appears to be Pete Huthich but, not 100% sure. It is very small and hard to make out all the letters. 6-17-70 most likely refers to the date this record was pressed.
Condition: The LP has been carefully inspected under bright light and graded based  on the Goldmine Records grading scale. It has  also been play tested. Vinyl: (VG) Both sides have several light marks but nothing too deep.  The  vinyl has excellent original gloss. Labels: (E+) Both sides of the label have light wear around the spindle hole. Cover Sleeve/Artwork: (VG) Both front and back have ring wear and some light surface loss. The front has small initials(CK) written in ink at the bottom right corner. All edges have rubbing and surface loss. All corners are worn  through with some bends. The bottom edge has a indent near the sleeve opening. There are about 4 small light surface creases on the spine's edge. The bottom edge at the sleeve opening has a 1 1/2" seam split. The top corner edge at the  sleeve  opening has a 1 1/4" partial seam split. The center bottom edge has a 2"  seam split.  The bottom of the spine has a 2 3/4" partial split. All artwork and  lettering is intact. Inner Sleeve: This LP does not have its original inner sleeve. An alternate paper sleeve was with the LP.  Playback: Both sides play continuously through with no overpowering interference.  Playback is  nice and clear with excellent sound quality. Light crackle  can be heard  during  playback, mostly during quieter passages. A few light occasional  ticks can  also be  heard during playback. The last track on Side 2 jumps slightly forward near  the ending  of the song. I looked carefully for the cause of this, but not sure what it is. There could be a stubborn particle stuck in the groove. The vinyl was cleaned  with  distilled water and  a soft  microfiber cloth only. A deeper clean would most likely help  clear  up the crackle and  maybe  even the light ticks. Overall sound quality  is  excellent.
