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.

These records are in excellent- condition. There are a few very faint spindle marks on each of the the labels but not loads and there are only really visible when viewed under bright light. None of the labels have pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere and overall the all look great. The centres show minor wear in places but are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in great shape with nothing serious to report. 

As for the vinyl itself, all four sides are free from anything serious, have a vivid shine and other than one light scratch on side 3 there is just light surface lines and 'sleeve scuffs' visible when angled. These are all very minor and light and overall both records are in good shape. They are both free of nasty marks, serious scuffs or blemishes and both have a vivid shine. They do both have these light lines and signs of use however which clearly show under bright light. There is again nothing sinister evident however, just wispy lines and minor sleeve scuffing.

I play tested both the records and they played very well and produced very enjoyable audio which has no serious issues at all and only minor amounts of surface noise in parts. They both lay flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm on either. The audio produced is excellent and overall very clear with only a minor amount of light surface noise in places. This is not massively disruptive however and overall it was a thoroughly enjoyable play test which has no major issues such as skips, sticks or clicks. So a used vintage UK 1st press which plays well and produces very enjoyable audio that is still of good quality but not completely pristine.

The 'cut out' sleeve is in excellent- condition. It has some wear and rubbing to the edges and corners, but these are all strong with no splits or weak areas anywhere. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks and the text on the left edge is still all legible. All the windows remain tear free or undamaged and overall the sleeve is in good shape. It has little creasing and no real ring marks showing. There are a few indentations to both the front and back but nothing major. Overall a nice clean example of this iconic sleeve which has no major issues to report. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It contains both its two original picture/window inners which are both in excellent+ condition with no splits, tears or pen marks and only minor wear. There is next to no creasing evident and only the faintest possible ring marks. I will send both the records in clean, plain white replacements to ensure the originals remain in this excellent condition.

Also included is its original lyrics insert. This is in excellent condition with no tears, pen marks or serious issues. It have some light grubbiness or discolouring in places but nothing severe.

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 try to ensure a 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.
