THE SLEEVE
THE UN-LAMINATED, ROBERT STACE PRINTED, GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS IN VERY GOOD+ CONDITION. THERE IS SOME WEAR AND THERE IS SOME LIGHT RUBBING TO SOME AREAS ALONG THE EDGES. THERE IS A SMALL WHITE AREA ON THE FRONT WHERE THE GREEN COLOUR APPEARS TO HAVE RUBBED AWAY. THERE IS SOME MINOR BRUISING TO THE CORNERS AREAS. OTHERWISE THIS SLEEVE LOOKS NICE. THE EDGES AND CORNERS ARE ALL STRAIGHT AND THE TEXT ON THE SPINE IS STILL LEGIBLE.
THE VINYL
VISUALLY THE HEAVY BLACK VINYL APPEARS TO BE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. EVEN UNDER BRIGHT HALOGEN LIGHT I CAN ONLY SEE A FEW TINY HAIRLINE MARKS. I HAVE FULLY PLAYED THIS GREAT ALBUM AND I CAN CONFIRM THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPERB THROUGHOUT EVERY AMAZING TRACK.
THE LABELS
THE DECCA LABELS ARE BOTH IN NEAR MINT CONDITION WITH JUST ONE OR TWO TINY SPINDLE MARKS.

RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM
MINT (M) 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. RECORDS ADVERTISED AS SEALED OR UNPLAYED SHOULD BE MINT.
EXCELLENT (EX) THE RECORD SHOWS SOME SIGNS OF HAVING BEEN PLAYED, BUT THERE IS VERY LITTLE LESSENING IN SOUND QUALITY. THE COVER AND PACKAGING MIGHT HAVE SLIGHT WEAR AND/OR CREASING.
VERY GOOD (VG) 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 (G) 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.
THE USE OF PLUS (+) OR MINUS (-) ALLOWS FOR ITEMS THAT FALL BETWEEN THE ABOVE GRADES.
