Elvis Presley 
‎ Frankie And Johnny / Please Don't Stop Loving Me 

1966 RCA Victor RCA1509

Condition
Record: Looks Fair but they all seem to be light scuffs (and there are lots of them!) Unbelievably plays close to VG on a decent deck (tested Technical SL1200 with ortofon concorde elipitical and was pleasantly surprised/.
Sleeve:   Correct period RCA 

I use record collector grading but also add a + and - where necessary since their grading standard can be too simplistic.

Mint (M): The record 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 Unplayed should be Mint.  Please note I normally use Near Mint since unless sealed there will always be a minor imperfection!

Excellent (EX): 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 (VG): 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 (G): 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 (F): 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 (P): The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Bad (B): The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
