Visual "78 RPM Record" Grading Standards as follows:

• Near Mint- (NM-) ~ The pressing looks glossy and clearly has only been played a few times (if ever!). It has been carefully handled and cared for. 
• Excellent (EX) ~ Will show some slight evidence of having been played and handled.
• Very Good Plus (VG+) ~ Will show a few faults. A little rub, scratch, or background crackle may occur. Record sheen may have diminished.
• Very Good (VG) ~ The 78 has seen a bit of life but is still usable. Light pops, clicks, and/or light visible scratches may be present. Label wear is often present. You can still listen to the 78 and enjoy looking at it; but it is visually and audibly "USED".
• I will rarely offer an 78 that would grade below these standards. When I do, it is strictly because of the collectability of the particular 78.
