Grading
Visually grade vinyl as VG "minus", there are marks and scratches on both sides. It plays on my Linn Sondek with no skips or jumps, however there are crackles and pops in places. There is a mark on label of side 1 and two patches on wear on the label of side 2 (see photos). The sleeve is in VG plus condition, some creasing and wear to the opening.
Note that record will be posted in a cardboard record mailer. Record and inner sleeve will be in a card sleeve.
