All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if purchased.

This record is in very good condition. It has spindle marks visible on each label but there is no pen marks scuffs or really major issues. There is a small section of sticker/glue residue on side 1(lower section) but this is pretty discreet and not hugely noticeable. Overall the labels show obvious signs of use and age with the spindle marks and light wear to the centres but are also not heavily worn and have all text legible.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything deep or major but do have marks, lines, scuffs and general signs of use and age. There is nothing that is obviously nasty or serious however and there is nothing that can be felt. It still has a nice lustre and although it has marks and lines in places it has nothing life threatening or serious.

I play tested the record and it played tidily and produced enjoyable audio throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. The audio has no skips, sticks or tics and I didn't note one single pop. There was some traces of surface noise in the run ins and a little between some tracks but the audio itself has little surface noise or interference audible. There was also no serious distortion caused by excessive use with just a minor amount in some places. Overall it plays with solid VG+ audio on each side with no nasty issues and was a very enjoyable play test.

The front laminated flipback sleeve is in very good condition. It has general signs of age with some wear on the corners and a patch of wear to the top edge(right side). There are no splits or weak areas however and the sleeve is strong all round. It does have some creasing to the laminated front, mostly around the top left corner and right central area. There is also age related discolouring to the white rear and a large pen mark/message to the rear top edge area. Overall a solid sleeve with no major issues but with general signs of age/handling and the pen mark as mentioned. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It contains its original HMV rice paper-lined inner but this is grubby and shows its age and so the record will be send in a brand new plain white replacement.

The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to try to ensure a swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
