    CONDITION Details:

    The LP jacket is in near mint minus condition. The jacket is tight and clean, with NO seam splits. It has "clarifoil" on the front of the jacket, not back. The corners are solid. The colors on the jacket are sharp with NO discoloration on the front or back. The corners and seams show very little shelf wear due to the age (see pictures with this listing for more detail as they are of the actual item). 

    The LP is in near mint minus condition! There are no serious marks on the vinyl. There may be some very light spider marks on the LP which are caused by sliding the LP in and out of the inner sleeve. Most of the time, these types of marks are not audible, but it really depends on the sensitivity of your audio gear. This is not a new audiophile LP....some extraneous sound is inevitable and should be expected for a vintage LP. A record from the 1960s is rarely perfect. The LP retains much of the original gloss and sheen! There are NO serious spindle marks on the record labels either. That said, acquiring a vintage LP like this is for the performance and rarity of the LP, not necessarily just for the sound quality.

    A Short Note About LP GRADING -

    • Mint = Only used for sealed items.
    • Near Mint = Virtually flawless in every way.
    • Near Mint Minus = Item has some minor imperfections, some audible.
    • Excellent = Item obviously played and enjoyed with some noise.
    • Very Good Plus = Many more imperfections which are noticeable and obtrusive.

    For best results, always thoroughly clean your LPs before playing them.

    LPs can be audiophile quality pressings (any collector of fine MFSL, half speeds, direct to discs, Japanese/UK pressings etc., can attest to the difference a quality pressing can make to an audio system).

    Don't let this rarity slip by!!!
