THE SLEEVE
THE FRONT LAMINATED, FLIPBACK SLEEVE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. THERE IS WEAR TO BACK & FRONT. THERE IS ALSO DISCOLOURATION TO THE REAR. THERE IS SOME DAMAGE TO THE TOP FLIPBACK AND SOME FEATHERING TO TH EOPENING.
THE INNER SLEEVE
THE POLY-LINED, BLUE & WHITE INNER SLEEVE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS HEAVY AND STILL RETAINS IT’S FULL GLOSS. UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE SOME VERY LIGHT MARKS. I HAVE FULLY PLAYED THIS SUPERB ALBUM. THE SOUND QUALITY IS EXCELLENT THROUGHOUT, WITH JUST OCCASIONAL BACKGROUND NOISE. I WOULD GRADE BOTH THE VINYL AND THE AUDIO QUALITY AS BEING IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
THE LABELS
THE GROOVED BLACK & SILVER "FFSS" DECCA LABELS, WITH THE WIDE SILVER BAND, ARE BOTH IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. THERE ARE NO SPINDLE MARKS.

I HAVE DESCRIBED THESE RECORDS STRICTLY ACCORDING TO RECORD COLLECTOR MAGAZINE GRADING SYSTEMS SO THERE WILL BE NO NASTY SURPRISES FOR THE WINNING BIDDER. THESE RECORDS HAVE BEEN CAREFULLY VISUALLY GRADED.
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.
THE USE OF PLUS (+) OR MINUS (-) ALLOWS FOR ITEMS THAT FALL BETWEEN THE ABOVE GRADES.
