Description
This is the Original 1st ever UK 1971 UK Issue of this classic album by UK prog rock pioneers `Yes`
Vinyl Grading (NM) under bright LED lights I can hardly see any of the usual sleeve removal scuffs/swirls just a couple of small scuffs, it played through great with no sticks/jumps or feelable scratches (a real nice player)
Label - Lovely Clean labels - just a couple of visible spindle lines
Sleeve Grading (EX+) Lovely Matt finish `McNeill Press, London` Gatefold sleeve, the condition is amazing as these matt finish sleeves usually look very worn when found today, booklet still soundly attached, some small indentations, hardly played in it`s 50+ years (Please see photos for complete overview)
Packing Details – Every record will have the following:
Records placed separate from sleeve to avoid knifing
Sleeve and Vinyl placed in Polythene outer
2x 12” Card stiffeners to protect from bending
Sealed in bubble wrap for extra protection
Corner protection
placed in cruciform professional record mailer
Gradings: I use the standard UK gradings as set out in UK Record Collector Magazine 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 surfacemarks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
Near Mint, EX+, VG+ etc are acceptable additions to help `fine tune` descriptions for the buyer
