Black Sabbath LP 1st album First pressing on vertigo with large swirl label and 'a Philips record product' on the label Cat. no. VO 6 847903 VTY Matrix side A - 1Y*1 420, side B - 2Y*1 420

Vinyl has many light marks and scuffs. One small but deeper mark is on side A track 2 which causes a few pops. Audio is otherwise fine with only minor surface noise on the quieter sections and no sticks or jumps. VG Labels have no writing tears or stickers. Moderate spindle marks. VG+ Gatefold sleeve is clean both inside and out with some shelf wear to the edges. Spine intact and solid. No writing or stickers. VG Also includes original vertigo swirl inner which has a couple of small tears and has yellowed with age, but is intact and unsplit. VG

Overall an Very good playable example of this rare record.

Mint: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition.

Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

Very Good: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

Good: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration etc..

Fair: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise: it may even jump. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Poor: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc.. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Bad: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
