BILLIE HOLIDAY  Gloomy Sunday / Night and Day  1947 Columbia 38044
Condition: play grades a nice VG looks VG+/ E via the vjm scale virtually scratch free but it does have some small white-fish lines going in the direction of the grooves probably from a cleaning.  Sleeve: In nice shape I added this so I'm not at all sure it was the sleeve it was released in. It is a Columbia sleeve from approx. the time it was released
VJM 78 GRADNG SCALE

N-:Nearly New, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.

E+:Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny

scuffs from being slipped in and out of sleeves.

E : Excellent. Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.

E-:Still shiny but without the luster of a new record, few light scratches.

V+ :is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled

the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from

distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced.

V : Very Good Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.

V- :Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level.

G+: Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.

G : Good Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.

G- ; F ; and P The VJM system has these designations for records in extremely poor condition.
