Cover Condition: VG / Vinyl Condition: VG+.
Some separation along the spine of the cover but still very much intact. A few scuffs at the edges. Records are in very nice shape. I don't have a turntable capable of playing 78s to test these on but there are not significant scratches visible.
2x 10" album. Decca Records – 134

Firstly
I want to mention that I have been selling records for over 20 years
(both at records shows and on ebay) so you can feel confident that
all my records are strictly, accurately and CONSERVATIVELY graded,
guaranteed.
All records are vacuum cleaned and are shipped with poly sleeve in a specially designed record mailer box with protective filler. I have a number of records up for auction so please check to see if there is anything else you are interested in.
GRADING KEY:
Records are graded Cover/Vinyl (i.e. a record graded NM/VG++ would have a NM cover and VG++ vinyl) NM ---- Close to perfect, this is the highest grade I give to a non-sealed record. VG++ --- May have a few very minor flaws. Sleeves will have minor edge or corner wear. Vinyl will have light paper scuffing or possibly a light inaudible scratch. VG+ ---- Will show signs of handling but still in better than average condition. Covers may have light ring wear or a little heavier corner or edge wear than a VG++ record but nothing that will detract from the cover art. The vinyl may have paper scuffing or one or two light scratches but nothing audible. VG ---- About average condition for a used record. Covers have more obvious wear, but no real damage. Vinyl will have scratches, some may be audible, but still quite listenable.
