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 successful.
This record is in near mint condition. It has no spindle marks visible on the labels and no pen marks, scuffs or fading. The centre is tight and other than some cracking/wear around these the labels are immaculate.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are absolutely spotless in normal light. There are even just a few incredibly light minor wispy lines visible under very bright white light. The record has no scuffs or major blemishes and has a beautiful vivid shine. It is in remarkable condition, has been very well cared for and cant have been played much if ever.
I did play test the record however and it plays near enough perfectly. It lays completely flat and there is no movement in the record arm. The sound produced is stunning. Its crisp, dynamic and so clear with barely even a trace of interference audible in the run in! It has near enough no background noise or interference at all, it is remarkable. There are obviously no skips, sticks or clicks and no other serious musical issues. Its an audio experience of the highest possible quality and was an absolute treat to play test.
The gatefold sleeve is in near mint condition. It has only extremely light wear/rubbing to the edges and corners and these are strong and rock solid. The writing along the spine is all clearly legible and it is clean, bright and has a strong spine. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere and there is even next to no discolouring inside the gatefold on the white areas. It really is in great shape all round and other than the faintest possible ring marks imaginable and some extremely faint fading in places I cant see anything else to mention. It does however have an import 'nick' on the top edge but even this is sharp and gives the impression it was done last week not over forty years ago!
It contains its original plain white inner in excellent condition, with no splits, tears, pen marks or other damage but slight age related discolouring and ring marks.
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 ensure 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.
