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 purchased.

This record is in excellent condition. It has only a few faint spindle marks visible on the labels and no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. The centres are not loose or worn and overall the labels are clean, bright and in excellent condition.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a nice lustre and have no heavy marks or major signs of use. There is some faint lines and minor marks evident in places however with these showing faintly in normal light and under bright light. Overall the vinyl is excellent with no serious marks or major marks but with some light ones in places due to age and handling.

I play tested the record and it played tidily with enjoyable audio but audio that was not pristine or crystal clear.

It lays flat on the deck and there is little to no movement in the arm upon playing. The audio has no skips, sticks or loud disruptive tics but there is some spluttering in places, light surface noise in parts and general mild interference in places. None of this is hugely disruptive but due to the mellow nature of the audio it does sound lightly in places. Overall I would say side 2 played better than side 1 with audio closer to a grade of EX+. Both sides were still enjoyable however with no major levels of interference but some in places as I say.

The sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It has no major wear or damage to the edges and corners with the writing along the spine clear and fully legible. There are of course no splits and no tears or scuffs. There is however a faint sticker removal mark on the front in the top left corner. There is also a few faint age spots to the laminated front and a minor ring mark. The rear has also got some light grubbiness/discolouring in places and also has a few small pencil marks(ticks) next to the track listings. There is also a sticker on the top right side area where the previous owner has added the optimal settings for bass/treble etc. Overall a nice tidy sleeve for over 50 years old. It is not factory fresh but is still in excellent condition with just some mild signs of age and handling in places. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original plain white/blue poly-lined inner which is in excellent- condition. This has no splits or tears but has some creasing, general signs of age/handling and pen/pencil marks to one side.

The record will be packaged in between 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.
