From my uncle Bob's estate. His hobby was collecting records, thousands of them, many he never played, and if so, once out of curiosity. A big asset to his hobby: his best friend was a distributor in the record industry. Always stored in his dry, air-conditioned, no smoking home, in a room just for record storage. This Cream "Fresh Cream" album, Atco Records SD 33-206, is in nice condition. The cover has no splits, holes or bent corners and still has a nice sheen, ( there are a few light stains on the cover back).  The vinyl is  EX with hard to see spindle marks and it still has a new record sheen. Includes original correct Atco sleeve with album advertising. (the sleeve has some light fading and 2 small tears on the top edge).  The Matrix side 1 reads: ST-C-66957-A , LW, AT , Side 2 : ST-C-66958-A , AT , both sides have a "M" with 1 dot on top and 3 dots below it, all hand scribed. This indicates it's a first pressing.    A very collectible version of this rare album.  A must have for any Cream/Clapton  fan.
 Please note that all vinyl is inspected under bright lighting using a 5X opti-visor magnifier.
Record Grading:
Mint: The record looks like it just left the manufacturer; no flaws. It looks like it was never handled. No scuffs, scratches, blotches or stains or spindle marks.
Near Mint: This record appears flawless, very minor, hard to see scuffs from removing from sleeve, no scratches, new record sheen, may have small hard to see spindle marks.
Excellent: Minor scuffs,  these blems should not be heard when playing, good sheen,  may have minor spindle marks.
VG+: Plays essentially clean, but may have a few spots with very minimal surface noise, may have very light scuffs, still has some sheen, may have some spindle marks.
VG: Handling and wear more visible, still plays fine, with occasional  surface noise, not as much sheen as VG+, may have some spindle marks.
I won't sell records that are at least VG.

Covers and sleeves will be graded on an individual basis.
All records will be shipped in a padded, heavy cardboard container. All used albums will be shipped with the vinyl out of the original sleeve (in a new white acid free sleeve) to preserve sleeve spine and cover integrity.
No hassle returns; my goal is 100% satisfied record buyers. It's all about the music!
I do combined shipping discounts.
