Sleeve is in very good condition. One small crease that goes asros the pound £ sign front bottom right. Flipback nice and clean for age. As they say as age-related marks. See picture. Spine is very good and intact, the word soul has a bit of a scuff.

Have play the record all the way through with no skips or jumps you can hear some crackles in between tracks but really nothing. But you know what it's like it has to be mentioned. record as only had a quick wipe over I do not have a turbocharged flux capacitor record cleaners I just use a good old fashioned record cleaning pad.

Visually the record looks nice and clean with only one light scuff Mark that goes across but doesn't not seem to affect play I have taken a picture . Apart from that the record is very clean.

Overall a nice example of this STEREO early pressing VG+/VG

Condition (Sleeve/Disc): VG+/VG 
See below for grading definitions 

Mint (M): 

I only grade as mint where the record is brand new and sealed with no visible damage to the sleeve. 

Near Mint (NM): 

Sleeve: Will only show very minor signs of storage/handling wear. It may have slight corner bumps/rub, ring wear and maybe very minor creasing. It will have no rips or splits.

Record: We be in a new like condition. Very Clean. It may have very, very minor defects such as no more than a couple of very light wispy hairlines and a couple of spindle trails around the centre holes. Basically a record in NM condition will look like you have just got it back from the record shop or at worse only had a couple of plays. 

Excellent (EX): 

Sleeve: As NM but the signs of wear will become a little more pronounced. There may be signs of stress at the seams maybe the beginnings of a split. It may have a cut out hole indicating that it was taken out of print. There may be a little graffiti on the sleeve or label. 

Record: Will show signs of play but has been well looked after by the previous owner. It may show a few more light marks/scuffs than a NM. These marks won't be deep enough to be felt. There may be the odd click or crackle upon playback. Slight warps are that don't effect the sound are OK.  

Very Good (VG):  

Sleeve: A VG sleeve will have many of the defects found in a EX but more pronounced. Seam splits may be more obvious or may be taped or show residue. There may be small rips. It may show some age/handling discolouration. Laminate may be bubbled, may be marred with writing.

Record: Wear and defects will be more obvious with marks/scuffs deep enough to feel with a fingernail. Groove wear will be more noticeable. Sound deterioration and surface noise will become more likely especially during quieter passages. 

I don't sell records with a lower grade than VG unless it is incredibly  rare.

Over the years I have had too many records going missing whenever I send abroad. I always end up out of pocket. ( losing out ) And then it is a mala de testa.
