Here is a vintage vinyl Santana Self Titled Album on Columbia Records from 1969 CS 9781. I believe the vinyl to be in very good+  condition. The cover is in very good+ condition as well with some edge wear on the edges and spine but no edge splitting. The album does have the the original inner sleeve. Please see photos for condition and message me if there are any further questions. Make sure to check out my store for more albums, collectibles and goods. Thanks for your interest and Enjoy! 


Here is how I grade:

 

MINT- To me, Mint is in perfect condition, so it’s never been played or opened.  I only have used vintage original albums that are 30+ years old so I will not list anything as Mint.

 

NEAR MINT-Looks and sounds like new. Near perfect record with at most a couple light hairline scratches or scuffs with no crackling or skips when played. May have a hint of surface noise.  Inner sleeve may have a small crease on corner, no fading, very, very light wear on corner/edges, or no splits over a ½ inch.  Jacket may have very light edge/corner ware, no fading, or ring wear.  

 

EXCELLENT-Near perfect sounding record with very few light scratches or scuffs. May have very light crackling/few pops/surface noise when played between songs or intro. Inner sleeve may have small creases on corners, very light fading, very light wear on corner/edges, or small splits, but overall in excellent condition.  Jacket may have very limited markings or very light ring wear with corners/edges slightly scuffed/dinged.  

 

VERY GOOD-Record shows some signs of wear with surface scuffs and light scratches, but surface noise/pops can mainly be heard when playing in between songs, intros, or in soft spots. If slightly warped I will leave details. Inner sleeve has some creases, light tears, light ring wear, or have splits (some may have been taped).  Jacket shows some wear, light fading, light ring wear, or small creases, but overall looks very good.

 

GOOD-Record plays just fine but has some surface noise and scratches or is slightly warped. May have a couple pops or skips.  Inner sleeve has multiple creases, tears, ring wear, or splits on more than one side (some have been taped). Jacket is faded (but readable), may have larger scuff marks, ring wear, corners bent, creases, or some tearing. 

 

FAIR/POOR-No albums will be sold in this condition. Only inner sleeve or cover may be in this condition.
