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.
News Of The World lot on vinyl! LP is a rare original Nick Webb mastered PRC Richmond gatefold first pressing from November 3, 1977 on Elektra with die-cut inner sleeve with complete lyrics!!! LP is a beautiful VG++ with a few light paper scuffs. Cover is a beautiful VG++ as well with barely a hint of ring. It's Late 45 is a MEGA RARE original PRC Richmond first pressing from April 25, 1978 on Elektra's caterpillar label with the bludgeoning Sheer Heart Attack on the B-side!!! Vinyl is VG++ with a tiny nick on the outer edge on the B-side at 2:00 that does not affect play and no scratches or scuffs whatsoever. Sleeve is VG- with a small 1" split at the bottom middle and some moisture waviness. Incredibly hard to find a caterpillar pressing with the original sleeve.
I USE GOLDMINE GRADING~ MINT (SEALED) NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++: VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE 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
