For sale is my second, and last, copy of Lillie Bryant 45 "Meet Me Halfway/Mama" on the Tay-Ster label, white label DJ copy, TS 6016. Dead wax runout matrix 1257/1258.
While I found the one I sold last week in a sleeve and it looked like it was largely untouched, this one I found in the same collection but without a sleeve. Because of that, it has some signs of wear from rubbing up against other unsleeved 45s.
Some writing in blue ink on "Meet Me Halfway" side, some light staining/toning otherwise. Vinyl on "Meet Me Halfway" side rates in the VG to VG+ range... some noise in dead wax at beginning and end (hear sample), but plays very well otherwise. I'm going to be extra conservative and call it VG. "Mama" side rates VG- with some clicks and pops. There is a tiny chip at the edge of "Meet Me Halfway" side, which is inconsequential to playback.

My grading scale:
STILL SEALED : Jacket imperfections, if any, will be described. Vinyl guaranteed to be in unplayed condition.
M : I don't use this grade, on the assumption that no record or jacket is truly flawless.
M- : Vinyl appears unplayed, jacket bears no signs of wear. I rarely, if ever, use this grade.
NM : Like M-, with possible scintilla/whiff of an imperfection
VG++ : May have a couple very minor imperfections. (sleeve scuffs, faint scratches or other superficial marks that have little or no bearing on sound.) Jacket may have a couple very minor flaws.
VG+ : Like VG++, but with a few more light imperfections
VG : Several light imperfections, and possibly one or two more serious ones, such as small feelable scratches. Still plays well.
VG- : Will display numerous minor imperfections and/or feelable scratches that affect playback quality. Between you and me, you could do better.
GOOD : What I consider pretty poor... numerous major imperfections. I generally don't sell items in this range unless they are of major significance.
