PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER).  OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP



BEAUTIFUL original Robert Ludwig mastered Specialty first pressing from May 13, 1985 on Warner Brothers with EAST embossed around the center hole on the side 2 label and glossy printed inner sleeve with complete lyrics!!!  LP is a beautiful VG++/NM-.  Cover is still in the original shrink wrap.  Even has the original yellow circular $6.99 Montgomery Wards (R.I.P.) price sticker on the cellophane in the top right hand corner on the front cover.  A high grade copy with impeccable provenance.  THIS is what collecting is about.



I USE GOLDMINE GRADING~
MINT (SEALED) 
NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED
VG++:  VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF US
VG+:  AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL
VG:  STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE
POOR:  FILLER COPY ONLY.  LOTS OF SCRATCHES
