The Velvet Underground & Nico on Verve V-5008 Mono L.P. This is the 2nd jacket version, non-torso back cover. Gatefold. The banana is completely peeled. 1/8" drill hole lower left all the way through jacket. There are a couple of sharp creases on the back of jacket, in the laminate, these are not cuts. These appear to be from the manufacturing process. No writing, rips or tears, overall Vg+ condition.
The vinyl is a very clean Vg++ condition. I believe this to be a 2nd pressing, from the late 1960s

L.P. and 45 Grading Standards
Mint-
(M-) Almost New. Might have a slight paper scuff or hairline. Plays,
with no noise that is due to visible imperfections. Highest grade I use.
Very
Good++ (Vg++) Very Clean Records, Well taken care of. Some light
scuffs and hairlines, a few light marks. Plays extremely well.
Very Good+ (Vg+) Well taken care of. A few scuffs, possibly a few light scratches and marks. Minimum of distracting noise.
Very
Good (Vg) Not especially well taken care of, but not abused either.
Light scratches, scuffs and marks. Plays with some background noise but
is still enjoyable and collectible. Some gloss. Probably not kept in
sleeve.
Very Good- (Vg-) Light scratches, scuffs and marks which are more numerous than Vg. A bit more noise. Not much gloss.
Good+
(G+) Light to moderate scratches and marks, dirtier looking with
little or no gloss. Plays through with moderate noise, distracting to
some, but below level of music. May not be good enough for Dee Jaying.
Good
(G) Still plays through without jumps or skips. Noise approaching, but
still below level of music. Probably has seen some some time on floor,
and I don't mean dance floor.
Poor-Fair- Excellent sanding disc.
If a record's audio differs substantially from it's visual grade, I will make note of it.
