AN ORIGINAL U.S.A 1ST PRESSING AFL1-2522 WITH LYRIC SHEET LOOKING AT THE ALBUM THERE ARE NO SCRATCHES OR MARKS AND NO DEFECTS AT ALL , AND ALSO LACK OF SPINDLE MARKS INDICATES THAT THIS RECORD HAS LIMITED PLAY SO WOULD RANK ALBUM AS NEAR MINT.

AS THE BOTTOM RIGHT OF ALBUM INDICATES THAT ITS AN IMPORT DUE TO SNIPPING OF COVER ( see pictures)

LYRICS SHEET BAG IS EXCELLENT

COVER EX EVEN WITH SNIPPING

VINYL ,NEAR MINT

OVERALL A BRILLIANT ALBUM THAT HAS BEEN WELL LOOKED.


All Records are Cleaned with Oki Nokki and then Art du son cleaner.


Records are graded using the Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide.


The Grading System takes into account that many records are over 50 years old


MINT (M) : The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover is in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.


NEAR MINT (N/M):The record appears new but is known to have been played . The cover and /or labels are near perfect


EXCELLENT (EX) : 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. The labels may have light spindle marks


GOOD.The record has obviously been played many times, with several scratches visible under a strong light, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable


GOOD (G) : The record sound quality has noticeably deteriorated , with many scratches visible. The cover suffers from folding, scuffing of edges , spine splits, discolouration ect...


FAIR (F) : The record is still just playable but displays considerable surface noise . The cover will be torn , stained and/or defaced


POOR (P): The record will not play properly with bad surface noise ect...The cover will be badly damaged or partly missing .


BAD (B): The record is unplayable and only good as a collection filler .


For Records that appear to fall between accepted grades then + or – are added to the grading .


Also if a record or cover falls generally in one of the above grades except for a noticeable defect , then I will mention that defect .


On all packages I will always send 2nd class recorded delivery to track each package ( unless bargain basement ) and every record will be taken out of sleeve unless sealed to prevent seam splits to outer or inner sleeves.


I will try and send 2/3 records combined to save on postage for you and for me .


Also , if you are an international buyer please DO NOT BID unless you are prepared to pay Ebays Global Shipping centre charges, Thanks.


I always try and play test all records .


If you want anymore information do not hesitate to contact me.




I will be selling more great records in future so keep looking




Thanks for Looking
