This record is in excellent condition. It has just a few faint spindle marks visible on the labels and there are no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in really nice condition.

As for the vinyl itself both sides are nice and clean overall with a good lustre and no heavy sign of use. It has some faint and superficial blotchy/streaky marks in places however and a few minor light handling marks/lines. There is nothing remotely deep, serious or major however and overall it is nice condition for 50+ years old.

I play tested the record and it played well with nice clarity throughout. It lays flat on the deck and there is little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. The sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use and no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. Overall it was a pleasure to play test and produced audio of nice quality and good clarity throughout.

The laminated sleeve is in excellent condition. It has no serious issues such as tears, scuffs or pen marks and is solid all round. It has mild wear on the edges and corners but the spine is all clearly legible. It does have a little age related discolouring to the rear, a few minor creases and light signs of age to both sides but there are no major issues and overall it is a tidy and solid sleeve. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.

It includes a plain white poly-lined inner which is in very good condition. This has no splits or pen marks but has tears to the central window, creasing, ring marks and discolouring/grubbiness. The original will be included but the record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure it remains clean and ready to play.

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.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
