Notes

Record

VG

Some minor surface noise can be heard but not persistent or overpowering.  There is a handwritten "S" on each disc that served to differentiate my records from room mates' collections.

Cover

VG

Some corner dings, ring wear and creasing on the left side from handling as shown in pictures.  Also has a pen mark in the gate fold, also shown in pictures.

Other Notes



Goldmine record grading guide:
VG records have more obvious flaws than their counterparts in better shape. They lack most of the original gloss found on factory-fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail. When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and ending. But the noise will not overpower the music otherwise.

Minor writing, tape or a sticker can detract from the label. Many collectors who have jukeboxes will use VG records in them and not think twice. They remain a fine listening experience, just not the same as if it were in better shape.

VG covers will have many signs of human handling. Ring wear in the middle or along the edges of the cover where the edge of a record would reside, is obvious, though not overwhelming. Some more creases might be visible. Seam splitting will be more obvious; it may appear on all three sides, though it won’t be obvious upon looking. Someone might have written or it or stamped a price tag on it, too.
