Up for auction is a The Beatles "In Italy" released on EMI-Parlophone Records (PMCQ-31506 // xx9009 // 13765). Grading as follows:
Jacket: EX  :: Were it not for a light crease near the opening of the jacket (wouldn't show in pictures), jacket would grade NM. All edges are crisp and clean, no yellowing or staining on the jacket. Ringwear is virtually non-existent. No seam splits, or cut-out marks. 
Vinyl: VG+/VG+ (Play-graded EX/VG+) :: Vinyl plays wonderful, with clarity and dynamic range on both sides. Side 1 is near flawless playback, with virtually no surface noise. Side 2 has some light noise, not overpowering or distracting from the listening experience. Both sides of the record are extremely glossy, with no scratching or groove wear. There is what I could only describe as pitting on the first track on both sides of the record that drops this down a grade from EX or NM though. At first I thought it was a visual defect, because there was no noise upon playback, but this can be felt with your fingernail (lightly, of course).
