Description: -See photo below for selections. Wide Band Gooved label.
Condition: -Not a expert on grading records, I will describe best I can. See photos below. I examined this and the other records I've listed under a bright halogen light.
Record: There is some background noise on both sides, I believe most, if not all of this noise can be cleared up if record properly cleaned with a good cleaning machine or system. I am not able to do this. I heard only static-y dust noise, no popping or ticking. A few spindle marks on both sides, see label photos below. Music itself sound great.
Side one has four light lines on it, not scratches that effect play, I played through them, no pops or ticking, they don't effect the sound. (You cand make out the biggest of the marks in the 6th photo blow on last band of side one)
Side two has a sleeve scuff mark and one light line, these do not effect play, no ticks or popping.
Sleeve: Cover has some wear, on font side, a couple of light 1/2 inch creases, bumped corners, smudges, on back side some ringwear and smudges. See last photos below of cover. Comes with original lined inner sleeve, also slight wear.

PLEASE READ THESE PARAGRAPHS ABOUT SHIPPING AND POSTAGE COST:
As you may have noticed lately, the shipping costs you see in auctions has really gone up! This is because in the last year the Post Office has not only raised its prices, it has also changed the way it determines how much it will cost to ship a package. The old way was based on the weight of the package, not the size of the box (unless it was very large). But now both the weight AND size of the package determines the cost of shipping.
As an example: Take the Priority Mail cost of sending from California (where I am) to New York two packages that each weigh exactly 2 pounds. The first box measures (in inches): 12x12x12, the second box measures 13x12x12. It will cost $7.50 to send the 12x12x12 inch box, but it will cost $25.05!!! to send the 13x12x12 inch box, even though they both weigh the same! Yikes! And if the box were bigger it could cost even more!
The reason I write this is to reassure you that I will always do my best to find the least expensive way of getting you your item. I will list the best shipping options available and I will use the smallest box that I can SAFELY package an item in, if it will save you money. (I pride myself on my packing, and I won't cut corners when it comes to careful packing. Check my feedback). This goes for foreign buyers as well as those in the USA.
And you pay ONLY the actual postage cost. I never charge for packing materials or charge a handling fee. And if I do happen to make a mistake in how much it costs to ship an item and you overpay on postage, I will ALWAYS refund the overcharge.
