Instant Queen mini collection! This is lot of 3 vintage, original US pressings of Queen albums. Includes "A Day At The Races", "Jazz" and "The Works". Using Discogs grading, I would rate all 3 records in VG condition. All 3 have been washed in a Spin-Clean and tested to play without skipping. In general, records are all clean with some light marks. The jackets vary from VG to VG-. See photos for details. From a smoke-free home.

"A Day At The Races" released on Elektra 6E-101 in 1976. According to Discogs, this is a Specialty pressing. Playing surfaces are glossy with a fair amount of paper scuffs and some cue marks. Both labels are clean and free of damage. Sounds great, with just enough clicks and pops during the quiet songs to keep it from being VG+. Jacket is in nice shape, with a little ring wear on the front. There are a few light creases in the spine and edge wear, heaviest on the top and corners. Includes original printed inner sleeve which has a water stain running through both sides. Two edges have seam splits, with the start of a split on the third edge.

"Jazz" released on Elektra 6E-166 in 1978. This is a Columbia House Santa Maria pressing. Visually could almost pass for VG+ except for the amount of light hairline marks and paper scuffs. Actually plays like VG+, with some surface noise between tracks that doesn't detract from the music. There are a few small spindle marks on both labels, which are otherwise clean. Jacket is pretty rough around the edges, with lots of wear on the spine and corners. Both sides have ring wear. Front cover has "JM" written in pen. Includes original printed inner sleeve, which has edge wear and seam splits on all 3 sides.

"The Works" released on Capitol Records ST-12322 in 1984. This is a Jacksonville pressing. Record has a mild inaudible warp. Both sides are glossy with a fair number of hairline marks, paper scuffs and a rash pattern near the outer edges. It sounds really nice but has some clicks and pops throughout the music as well as during quiet passages. Both labels are in excellent shape with no damage. Jacket has strong colors with a fair amount of edge wear but no seam splits. Right front has water damage where it appears to have been stuck to another jacket and covered up with clear tape.

Albums will be shipped via Media Mail packed tight in a sturdy cardboard LP mailer box. The albums will be stored in plain white sleeves outside of the jackets to avoid seam splits.
