Vinyl has some sheen in places and plays through with no skips, sticks or jumps. Obviously with a record of his age there is play wear, there is clusters of hairlines, surface marks and scuffs in places, there are visible scratches in places one small feel able on side A. Side B has more visible surface scratches including one large feel able one right across side B. Couple of other lightly feel able on side B. Scuffs and hairlines also. There is some light clicks in places and occasional background noise but testimony to 60’s mono pressing the audio shines through and is generally strong throughout so although there is visible flaws this is still a very serviceable LP with plenty of play time left. Labels have no stickers, small initials in the magic notes trade mark logo, spindle wear to the centres. Plain white inner sleeve which is of a later era. Outer front laminated G&L sleeve with rear flip backs has no splits or stickers. Readable thin spine with scuffs to the corners and wear along the edges in places. Small initials on rear top right corner and small pen mark to bottom rear left corner. Age related yellowing to rear of the sleeve. Laminate creases and laminate scuffs to the front.

General U.K. record collector grading of

Vinyl: G visually audio is much better

So as stated this is not a minter however plays through with generally strong audio so is still a serviceable LP to play and enjoy.

All records are properly play tested through headphones unless otherwise stated or still sealed.. All vinyl is inspected under a bright halogen lamp.. I use the standard UK record collector grading system appreciating that opinions differ. I never add more than one + or - to my gradings and never grade a record as M unless its new or sealed.

ANIMAL TRACKS

Plenty of play wear and visible marks so as stated this is not a mint record. However the audio is still generally strong throughout so is still a serviceable LP and rare filler.
