THE SLEEVES

THE TWO HEAVY FRONT-LAMINATED  PICTURE SLEEVE, WITH THREE REAR FLIP-BACKS, ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH SOME SLIGHT WEAR AND A FEW TINY WRINKLES IN THE LAMINATE. THERE IS SOME MINOR TANNING TO THE BACK. THERE IS ONE TINY NICK TO THE OPENING OF THE FIRST SLEEVE. OTHERWISE THE EDGES ARE ALL NICE AND STRAIGHT AND THE BLACK TEXT ON THE WHITE SPINES IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

THE VINYL

VISUALLY THE HEAVY GLOSSY BLACK VINYL APPEARS TO BE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT I CAN ONLY SEE A FEW TINY HAIRLINE MARKS OVER THE FOUR SIDES. I HAVE FULLY PLAYED ALL FOUR SIDES AND I CAN CONFIRM THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPERB THROUGHOUT . 

THE LABELS

THE FOUR RED HIS MASTER'S VOICE LABELS, WITH WHITE SEMI-CIRCULAR 'HIS MASTER'S VOICE' TEXT AROUND THE LARGE NIPPER LOGOS, ARE ALL IN NEAR MINT CONDITION WITH NO SPINDLE MARKS.

ALL RECORDS ARE REMOVED FROM ANY PICTURE SLEEVE TO PREVENT KNIFING. I DO NOT USE “ENVELOPE STYLE” MAILERS. INSTEAD I USE SPECIAL MAILERS DESIGNED TO PROTECT YOUR RECORDS AND ENSURE SAFE ARRIVAL.

I HAVE DESCRIBED THIS RECORD STRICTLY ACCORDING TO RECORD COLLECTOR MAGAZINE GRADING SYSTEMS SO THERE WILL BE NO NASTY SURPRISES FOR THE WINNING BIDDER. THIS RECORD HAS BEEN CAREFULLY VISUALLY & FULLY PLAY-GRADED.

RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM

MINT (M) 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.

VERY GOOD (VG) 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 (G) 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.
