                                1st Issue Rare blue 1963 Fan Club compliment slip Brookdale Freda Kelly

                                          1964 February Fabulous magazine goes all Beatles

                      Record cleaned using a Loricraft PRC record cleaning machine using L'art du son fluid

                      Play Grade on a Technics SL 1210 turntable SME 1V arm AT440ML cartridge

                      users of Spherical or Elliptical will likely hear less surface noise that is described below 

                     The record has a ZMT tax code XEX 421-1N & 422 - 1N matrix 1GA - 1GAstampers

                     with some scratches and marks on the record there is some surface noise throughout in parts

                      there are some rotational clicks on tracks 6&7 side 1 but no jumps on either side this record  

                      displays the hallmark of a record played many times on an older heavy tracking 60s record player

                      Factory sample not for sale and Archive labels on side 1 in my opinion these have been added

                      by the previous owner which could be a bonus for the purchaser if I was wrong

                      Nice shiny thick vinyl that has retained it's strong sound throughout it's 56 year life 

                      in my opinion will grade V-  side 1  G+   side 2

GRADING: All of our records are graded using the standard UK Record Collector Grading system as follows:

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as sealed or un-played should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, 
spine splits, discoloration, etc.

 FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

 POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
