Description:
Up for your consideration is the next in a series of unique discs, this one by Child. The record plays well.
Several unique things about this item:
Firstly, this disc retains the original shine with some very light marks grading by sight in normal room light. I feel it is also slightly dished. I'm sure if you took this and put it under a 1000 watt bulb, you'd probably find something that makes it less than mint. If you're that kind of collector, let me suggest this auction is not for you.
I took the time to play it and found the tracks to audibly average close to half way between VG+(excellent) and Near Mint. Side 1 played better than side 2. You can assign your own grade based on my comments and the grading scale shown below. A track-by-track detailed analysis is provided below.
So this is your chance to own a unique item at a reasonable price. Bid early and often so you don't miss out on this item!
It is further described below, please take the time to read before bidding.

I am using the Goldmine scale of G=Good(1), VG = Very Good(2), VG+ = Very Good Plus(excellent)(3), NM = Near Mint(4) when grading the disc(s).
Here is a summary of the record(s):
Artist: Child Title: Self-titled Record: Black vinyl with the original shine with some very light marks, maybe slightly dished, grading by sight in normal room light
Cover: (SEE SCANS!) Light general/ring wear front and back. Corners are creased and there are a couple longer up to 3" light creases on the bottom spine corner. No stickers. There is a magic marker small square on the front inside cover, upper left corner (see scan). Some very light seam wear. This is a gatefold cover (it opens up). The inside right cover is unglued along the bottom edge about 3/4 of the way. Rate the cover VG.
Labels: Black with silver print, white "Jubilee", multi-color around Jubilee. No pen/pencil marks, some spindle marks. Some center hole wear on side one. Inner sleeve: A generic, white sleeve with a folded corner. Trailing wax: Side 1: "JGS 8029A-1 LW Bistway". Side 2: "JGS 8029B-1 LW Bell Sound Bistway". Using a magnifying glass as best I can make it out!
Comments: I found the tracks to audibly AVERAGE around half way between VG+(excellent) and Near Mint. You can assign your own grade based on my detailed track analysis below. An unusual and rare addition to your collection.
Side 1: Comments: Hold on I'm comin' - Some very, very light pops and very, very light surface noise (3.4). Little light - Some very light pops (3.45) Aunt Millie - Some very, very light surface noise (3.8) You'll never walk alone - Some very, very light surface noise (3.8)
Side 2:Comments: Soft rocks - Some very light to light pops and some very light surface noise (3.0) Exodus - A very light to light surface noise witih some very light pops (3.1) A child begins to cry - Some very, very light surface noise (3.7) Ol' man river - Some very light to light pops. One heavy pop towards the end. Some very light surface noise (2.9)
Additional criteria I use when audibly grading records for people:
NM(4) = absolutely nothing wrong at all (very rarely happens--I've even opened sealed records and they don't play Near Mint) 3.5-3.9 = very, very light surface noise 3.1-3.4 = very light surface noise, very light pops VG+(3) = up to light pops and light surface noise (below this, one's enjoyment is affected, very subjective) VG(2) = up to medium pops and moderate surface noise G(1) = up to heavy pops and heavy surface noise
