The Jazz Messengers Columbia CL 897 mono LP. Original deep groove pressing with six-eye logo labels.
Condition - Grading is Visual Under Bright Light
The cover is a solid VG+. The front cover graphics are beautiful, vivid, and striking with some light surface wear. The corners show some wear, rounding, and dinging. Seams are nice with no splits. The printing on the spine is clear. The back cover has some light surface wear but is overall pretty bright and sharp. A very pretty cover.
LP is a solid glossy VG+ with some light sleeve, hairlines, and some light brush marks. Nothing feelable or serious on either side. Labels are beautiful with a few faint marks visible under angled light on side 2, side one is clean. Includes clear Stereo Fidelity sleeve.
Overall not perfect or NM but a solid collectable copy of a rare jazz LP, several notches above average. Check out my other auctions for more rare and interesting records. Winning auctions may be combined to save postage cost. Check out my feedback for results of recent rare record auctions.
Grading
Grading is SS (still sealed), NM, VG+, VG. The myriad of grading systems on Ebay is a good indicator of the subjective nature of grading. In my opinion NM is close to perfect with one or two very minor flaws, VG+ is above average and collectable and VG is average used condition but probably the best choice for playing. I'm a collector and try to describe LPs as accurately as possible, the way I would want them described to me. The pictures should at least give a good indication of the condition of the covers and labels. Please see my seller feedback for comments on my grading. If you don't agree with how I'm calling a record that is your privilege but with all respect please don't bid.
