THE SUPERB ROBERT STACE SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION. THE LAMINATED FRONT IS STUNNING WITH NO FLAWS. TWO OF THE CORNERS HAVE MINISCULE SCUFFS. THE BACK HAS SOME VERY MINOR DISCOLOURATION .

THE ORIGINAL "FFSS" POLY-LINED DECCA INNER SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS HEAVY AND STILL RETAINS IT’S FULL GLOSS. UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE ONLY SOME LIGHT HAIRLINE MARKS. I HAVE FULLY PLAYED GRADED THIS AMAZING ALBUM AND CAN CONFIDENTLY SAY THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPERB THROUGHOUT. I WOULD GRADE THE VINYL AS BEING IN NEAR MINT CONDITION.

RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM
MINT (M) THE RECORD ITSELF IS IN BRAND NEW CONDITION WITH NO SURFACE MARKS OR DETERIORATION IN SOUND QUALITY. THE COVER AND ANY EXTRA ITEMS SUCH AS THE LYRIC SHEET, BOOKLET OR POSTER ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION. RECORDS ADVERTISED AS SEALED OR UNPLAYED SHOULD BE MINT.
EXCELLENT (EX) THE RECORD SHOWS SOME SIGNS OF HAVING BEEN PLAYED, BUT THERE IS VERY LITTLE LESSENING IN SOUND QUALITY. THE COVER AND PACKAGING MIGHT HAVE SLIGHT WEAR AND/OR CREASING.
VERY GOOD (VG) THE RECORD HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN PLAYED MANY TIMES, BUT DISPLAYS NO MAJOR DETERIORATION IN SOUND QUALITY, DESPITE NOTICEABLE SURFACE MARKS AND THE OCCASIONAL LIGHT SCRATCH. NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE COVER OR EXTRA ITEMS, WITHOUT ANY MAJOR DEFECTS, IS ACCEPTABLE.
GOOD (G) THE RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED SO MUCH THAT THE SOUND QUALITY HAS NOTICEABLY DETERIORATED, PERHAPS WITH SOME DISTORTION AND MILD SCRATCHES. THE COVER AND CONTENTS SUFFER FROM FOLDING, SCUFFING OF EDGES, SPINE SPLITS, DISCOLOURATION, ETC.
