All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if successful.

This record is in excellent condition. It has just a few light spindle marks visible on the labels and no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. The centre holes are not loose and overall the labels are in good shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything serious and have just a couple of very light lines/marks visible in normal light. There is as I say nothing remotely serious on either side, but there are a few more light wispy lines evident when viewed under bright white light, as to be expected with a record of this age. The record has no serious scuffs or blemishes and has a lovely vivid shine. 

I play tested the record and it plays really well. It lays flat, there is next to no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is great. Its crisp, dynamic and really clear with little to no surface noise or interference audible. There is a miniscule trace in the run in and between tracks but as I say very little indeed other than this and next to nothing during the actual audio. There are no skips, sticks, clicks or any other serious musical issues. Its a quality audio experience and was a pleasure to play test. 

The sleeve is in very good condition. It has some light wear to the edges and corners(pics), but the writing along the spine is legible. There are no scuffs anywhere but there is a pen mark on the back in the top right corner area and a 1cm tear to the back left edge(record entry). There is also some age related grubbiness to the back and some creasing to both sides, but mainly the laminated front. So overall the sleeve is strong and solid all round with no major issues and it is holding up pretty well considering its age but does have some minor issues as mentioned.

It contains a plain white inner(replacement) in excellent condition with no splits, tears or pen marks.

The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to ensure swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my Ebay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
