Fully play tested.
Ultrasonically cleaned.
Special Printing (SP), Masterfonics Pressing, Electra 6E-237, Curb Records 6E-237, First Pressing.
LP rating VG+ - I would rate this LP Excellent if not for two quick snaps on side two in "Come and Go Blues". Some light scuffing visible (in the right light).
Outer Sleeve is rated Excellent - slight wear on corners & edge - no splits (pictured).
LP Sleeve is rated Very Good - has discolored due to age, no splits. Will ship in a Mobile Fidelty Original Master Sleeve (pictured).
Vinyl Grading Criteria Used:
Mint (M) – Absolutely perfect in every way. Never been played and usually sealed. Near Mint (NM) – The record has been on a shelf between other records. The vinyl looks glossy and clearly has only been played a few times. There are no marks on the vinyl and the whole package is complete. Excellent (E) – Same but with only very light marks where the vinyl has been in and out of the inner sleeve a few times, or tiny signs of use generally. Very Good Plus (VG+) – A few further faults are acceptable, but nothing that really compromises the record visually or audibly A little rub, light inaudible marks, a little background crackle. Very Good (VG) – It’s seen a bit of life, but it is still usable. Light pops and clicks, an edge split, light visible scratches. You can still listen to it and enjoy looking at it, but it is visually and audibly USED. Good (G) - A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.
