GRATEFUL DEAD, EUROPE '72, ORIGINAL 1972 1ST US PRESS, TRIPLE VINYL LP, RARE
Details. From my own personal collection.
Rare original 1972 US pressing, triple vinyl LP in tri-fold sleeve. Released on Warner Bros 3WX 2668. Bargain price for this original pressing
Condition as per the UK Record Collector grading system. I also use +/- if I think a record falls between two grade levels
Vinyl Condition:- VG. Machine cleaned and test played. Numerous small scratches but they are all shallow and not audible. Occasional soft background surface noise in the the odd brief quiet part but nothing major. A playable cheap rarity. Sleeve Condition:- FAIR. Well worn on all faces, heavy wear on the spines and various marks. Very common for this sleeve. All clearly photographed. The original Warner 'loss leaders' inner sleeves are all tatty, and have all sides split and taped. Label Condition:- EX

Mint: 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.
Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
Very Good: 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: 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.
Fair: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise: it may even jump. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
Poor: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc.. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
Bad: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
