Visual Grade: One of the cleanest vintage records I’ve ever seen. This record looks like it used a time machine to get to the present. Early 70s black B labels.

Grading Notes:

All records have been recently play-tested, start to finish. I provide both a visual grade and a play grade since vintage vinyl can often play better than it looks. I use Goldmine standards to the best of my ability. However, I’ve found that, as with most things in life, grading can be subjective. I’ve done my best to accurately represent each item in my auctions. Everything has been cleaned and put into a new, upgraded inner sleeve. If you have a question, just ask! 

Shipping Notes:

All items are shipped via USPS Media Mail and packaged carefully. Media Mail is $5 and $1 for each additional LP. If you require a shipping upgrade or insurance, please let me know after the auction and I'll make the adjustment. Due to the pandemic USPS shipping times are a little slow right now and might just a little longer than expected to arrive.
