The Chaneys Out of Time into Eternity Astara 1961 RARE Metaphysical LP VG+

Vintage 1961 Religious / Metaphysical LP entitled "Out of Time into Eternity" performed by Robert and Earlyne Chaney, both former Spiritualists and the founders of the Astara Foundation. Pressed and distributed on the Astara label. LP is pressed on Dark Purple Vinyl (Vinyl appears almost black until held up close to bright light). LP also appears to be later reissue as the first pressings were distributed and copy written in 1960 on a different label variant.
Sleeve is graded as VG+ with some bumping and shelf wear along the sides and edges with faint marking on the back cover. Sleeve is overall clean and intact.
Record has been thoroughly cleaned and visually graded conservatively as a strong VG+  with mild surface wear on both sides. Vinyl is bright and reflective and looks to be in overall very good playing condition with mild surface flaws.

-GRADING SCALE-
NOTE - Records with gradings "P" through "G" are only listed for sale if the Record is of considerable rarity and value.

P (Poor) - 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. 

F (Fair) - Record will have slightly less surface and/or label wear than a P grade. Vinyl is slightly reflective and the record will be visually in acceptable playing condition. Background noise ie. Static/Pops/Clicks are certain.

G (Good) - 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/VG+ (Very Good - Very Good Plus) - 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 (Very Good Plus / Near Mint) - 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 scuffs / 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.
