Lp's are visually graded as VG+. Shiny and glossy with deep grooves. A few light surface marks and minor sleeve scuffs, but nothing that will affect play.
Random inner sleeves from the era included (Columbia and Verve).
Outer gatefold sleeve is in VG+ condition with minor surface corner and edge wear but no seam splits, no ring wear, and , no water damage. It has a name written inside. It has original sticker advertising "Miracle Surface" anti static.
We use Goldmine's grading scale for reference as follows:
VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale marks around the center hole, but repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.
VG+ covers should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some very minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom, the most vulnerable location. Also, a VG+ cover may have some defacing, such as a cut-out marking. Covers with cut-out markings can never be considered Near Mint.
