Comments:  

This is KC-600 (aka Quiex II) audiophile quality vinyl. Dark purple when held up to a light source. 

Deadwax both sides reads Europadisk (pressing) - The Mastering Lab (TML-S) so you can be sure the mastering is just right too. The Mastering Lab is a mastering studio established in 1967 by audio engineer Doug Sax in Hollywood, CA. The Mastering Lab used three different lathes to cut records: two Scully lathes indicated by the letters TML-M and TML-S, and a Neumann lathe indicated by the letters TML-X.

The vinyl is awesome - just some really light sleeve marks and virtually no noise. 

The cover is a hair off this, with some really light signs of age around the opening, but square, flat and glossy like new. Really nice overall.

Very hard to find in this country.

 *********************
I use the Goldmine Price Guide to determine the grade of all my records. I strive to PLAY grade all records as accurately as possible

The following is Goldmine's description of grades:

Mint (M) = No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains, labels or writing, tears or splits; nothing!

Mint minus (M-) = one tiny problem, not major. Hard to find unless you look very hard.

Near Mint (NM) = A record or cover that is otherwise Mint but has one or two tiny, inconsequential flaws that do not affect play, and don't look too bad.

Very Good Plus (VG+) = Record or cover has been handled and played either infrequently or very carefully. That is an item obviously not perfect, but not too far from it.

On a disc, this could mean that there are light paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a paper sleeve, or the vinyl may have lost some but not all of it's original luster. Cover will have light ring wear, or tiny splits, or bends, but not all three!

Very Good (VG) = Record and cover will display visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface scratches, groove wear, and spindle trails from countless spins on the turntable, or the cover will have bends, tears, splits, marks, ring wear or a combo of three or more of these. A VG record looks like it will have some audible surface noise when it is played, although any such noise should not overwhelm the musical experience. The cover will still look OK overall and one you would be proud to display, despite it's flaws.
