Condition (refer also to notes at bottom):
VINYL: EX. Superbly clean on visual inspection. No scuffs, hairlines or marks on either side – and no deep scratches. Played just pre-listing and sound clarity is fantastic throughout. Run-ins are clear with only the lightest of static/the odd click. Plays with no skipping, jumping or sticking. A very enjoyable listen to these film soundtracks on a reissue LP.
OUTER SLEEVE/COVER: VG+. Colours are unfaded on gloss front and back. Light wear to corners. Spine in great shape but with just a few nicks. Edges have only a few minor scuffs. A few dents/marks across front but nothing major. Residue rectangles in top right where labels once were. Just a few light creases in from spine and a few nicks to aperture. Back cover in super condition with just a few surface marks and more light creases in from edges. A great sleeve overall.
INNER SLEEVE: VG. White paper with curved corners. Clean and intact with no rips or splits. A nice example.

ITEM CONDITION - items are graded according to Record Collector definitions - see below:

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.

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.
