FRANCK/DEBUSSY VIOLIN SONATAS KYUNG-WHA CHUNG/RADU LUPU (DECCA/CAT NO.: SXL 6944/MATRIX NO. ZAL 16557 1G/ZAL 16558 1G)

I WOULD GRADE THE RECORD OVERALL AS NEAR MINT. THERE ARE THE SLIGHTEST TINY SLEEVE REMOVAL MARKS AND I REALLY DO MEAN SLIGHT. THE RECORD HAS BEEN IN STORAGE FOR MANY YEARS AND THEREFORE HAS GATHERED SOME DUST ETC.. WOULD RECOMMEND A GOOD HIGH-END CLEAN AS WHEN I PLAYED A SMALL PART THERE WAS A BIT OF CRACKLE - I FEEL SURE THIS IS JUST STATIC AS THE RECORD LOOKS IMMACULATE. THE LABEL IS PRETTY MUCH PERFECT AND THE RECORD IS NOT WARPED AT ALL.
I WOULD GRADE THE COVER AS NEAR MINT. THERE ARE NO MARKS, WRITING ETC. THE SPINE IS FULLY INTACT. THERE IS NO MAJOR FADING ETC.. THE INNER SLEEVE IS ALSO NEAR MINT.  ALL IN ALL A LOVELY EXAMPLE.
