Vintage Gospel / Devotional LP entitled "The Wayfaring Stranger". Record is a regional interest LP performed by the minister of The First Baptist Church in Gatlinburg, Tennessee Charles Maples. Pressed and distributed on the Souvenir Records label.

Sleeve is graded as VG+/NM. Sleeve is clean and tight with very minor bumping and minor wear on the back cover. Sleeve is overall clean and intact with an autographed message from Maples on the middle back cover (see photos).

Record has been cleaned and visually graded conservatively as a strong VG+. Both sides show minor surface wear. Vinyl is Black and reflective and looks to be in overall very good / near excellent playing condition with minor surface flaws.

OUR GRADING SCALE IS AS FOLLOWS:

G - Record will have noticeable to heavy surface and/or label wear (deep groove scratches, torn labels, multiple hairlines etc). Record is still playable, but heavy background noise ie. Static/Pops/Clicks are certain.
G+ - Record will have slightly less surface and/or label wear than a G grade. Vinyl is slightly reflective and the record will be visually in acceptable playing condition. Background noise ie. Static/Pops/Clicks are certain.
VG - Record will have moderate surface wear and/or minor label wear (medium hairlines, minor marking on labels, light scratches etc.) scattered background noise may be present.
VG+ - Record will have minimal surface wear and/or minor label wear (Small hairlines, minor label wear, faint scratches etc.) The record has definitely been played but has been well stored and cared for. A medium amount of background noise may or may not be present.
VG+/NM - Record will have little surface wear, but not enough to have a true NM grading. Vinyl will be reflective and visually in overall very good playing condition with minor surface wear to vinyl and/or labels (handful of minor hairlines, small amount of general surface wear etc.) A small amount of background noise may or may not be present. A majority of records in our stock carry this grade.

NM - Record shows almost no surface wear with clean labels and reflective vinyl (one or two small hairlines but no less). Record has been very well stored and cared for and is in almost like new condition with very little to no wear.
M - Our highest grading. This rating is reserved for sealed, unplayed records in brand-new condition
All of our records are cleaned and visually inspected under bright fluorescent light to ensure accurate grading.
