This is the first of many forthcoming auctions from a fastidious collector. Nearly every record in his collection appears to be unplayed, and most the covers look nearly untouched. Of the 20 or so records I played from this collection, every single one played M- or very close to it. Each one will be graded individually, and I assure you these are some of the cleanest records you will ever hear.

NM- THE RECORD SURFACE RETAINS A HIGH GLOSS, PERHAPS ONE OR TWO EXTREMELY FAINT MARKS, STILL EXTREMELY CLEAN
EX ESSENTIALLY A NM- SOUNDING COPY, BUT
MIGHT SHOW A SMALL NUMBER OF VERY FINE SURFACE MARKS. STILL VERY CLEAN
VISUALLY AND DYNAMIC AUDIBLY.
VG++ THE RECORD RETAINS MUCH OF ITS ORIGINAL SHINE, FEW LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND OR LIGHT SCRATCHES MAY BE NOTED ON FAIRLY CLOSE EXAMINATION
VG+ THE RECORD STILL RETAINS SOME SHINE,
SURFACE MARKS & SCRATCHES MAY OCCUR BUT ARE LIMITED AND TEND TO BE
MODERATE TO LIGHT. RECORD WILL PLAY VERY WELL WITH VERY LIGHT SURFACE NOISE MOSTLY HEARD DURING A QUIET PASSAGE.
VG AVERAGE USED RECORD FROM HEAVY ROTATION, MAY HAVE STARTED TO LOSE ORIGINAL SHINE, SOME OBVIOUS SURFACE MARKS AND/OR SURFACE SCRATCHES WHICH MAY CAUSE SURFACE SOUNDS, ESPECIALLY IN SOFT PASSAGES
VG- THE RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED SEVERAL TIMES, THE VINYL MAY APPEAR DULL, MAY HAVE LOTS OF TINY MARKS OR SURFACE SCRATCHES WHICH MAY BE FELT, SURFACE MARKS MAY BE HEAVY AND SURFACE NOISE MAY BE NOTICEABLE THROUGHOUT
