BILLIE HOLIDAY rare early LP on COMMODORE mono deep groove beautiful
Billie Holiday - same - Commodore
Original U.S. Pressing
Catalog No: FL 30,008
Label: deep groove, maroon/silver label
vinyl: EX (just a few light hairlines, full gloss, beautiful)
cover: VG+ (strong. just some corner dings and slight ringwear, otherwise quite nice)
Grading as follows:
NM (Near Mint): Record has been opened, and probably played, but is in impeccable condition. I do not use "mint".
EX (Excellent): Has signs of use or storage, but still considered top collection quality. Jackets may display some very light wear; vinyl may have a few light sleeve marks only visible in the highest light. Sound will be full and clear, with very little (if any) noise.
VG+ (Very Good Plus): Still a great copy but has a bit more wear. Vinyl may have some light scuffs or scratches, but nothing deep. Jacket may have some ringwear or seamwear. Sound should be great, with minimal background noise.
VG (Very Good): A great play copy but clearly used. Vinyl will display many hairline scuffs or scratches, but will play with a tolerable amount of background noise. Jacket may have splits and wear but will not be falling apart.
VG- (Very Good Minus): A used or worn copy, that has not been taken good care of. Vinyl will have many scuffs or scratches, but play through enjoyably despite audible background noise. Covers will have tears, splits, writing, or other issues.
Fair, Poor: A very rough copy. Will play through without skipping unless otherwise noted, although records of this grade are sold AS-IS.
