78 RPM Grading System:

• NM = near new condition
• E = barely played, extremely close to near new condition
• VG = played, but not abused condition, should play very well, may have light scratches, scuffs
• G = well played, but should play pretty well, will have deeper scratches, scuff; may have some background noise, scratches, scuffs, wear
• P = well used, pretty bad condition, lots of background noise

• SS (New Still Sealed) = New store stock or otherwise unopened, factory fresh product
• NM = Essentially new or near new with only one or two small insignificant visual anomalies
• E = Still a very nice record with all or nearly all of its original gloss but may have a few more light surface marks, hairlines, needle tracks or the like which won't materially effect play
• VG+ = A really nice specimen, but used record that may have a series of light scuffs or scratches.  It may play with a few pops, but has no serious problems. Still glossy with a lot of life left in it
• VG = An acceptable, well-played record that still should sound good, but may have moderate surface noise, pops, etc.
• G = Not actually good at all but probably will play through but with much in a way of surface noise, pops, crackles, etc. Still, will have no cracks, chips or the like

Record grades VG. Both sides play through fine with surface noise as heard above. There are light marks and scuffs...no digs or deep scratches. Please magnify pics (click on 'Actual Size') and listen to both tracks to help you decide. Dead wax matrix number etchings are handwritten style.

This record will be very securely packaged for shipment. Please let me know if you would like your records insured.
