 VERY RARE STEREO DECCA SXL 6322, from 1967. Cover very good (minor tear, repair to rear) otherwise in VG++ shape, with no names or dirt/stains. Only some paper aging here and there & slight expected crease for the age. Nice glossy front. Intact spine with a little squeeze, but no splitting or record push through.

Highly glossy & very, very clean surface of the vinyl. No scratched marks or feelable surface issues. Plays as EX minus with only some slight background/built up static surface noise at the beginning of sides or in some of the very quiet played parts, which should clear after a couple of plays. Record itself is in EXCELLENT shape at worst!! a stunning looking item from 1967, hardly played. It will only benefit from a professional clean on a machine or other method. NO ingrained dust or warping of the actual disc, no needle thrashing or heavy use here. See pics!! LARGER VIEW available of exact item on offer.

Labels are DECCA unboxed, and the matrix carries the first pressing from 1967 on labels, of matching 1W/1W stampers. Unworn and no signs of heavy spindle wear. Very, very nice condition. EXCELLENT!!

Original inner sleeve, still has poly liner attached to the inside & has no splitting, only some expected paper aging process. I shall also provide a new spare lined inner for transit. I deliver fast same day if possible or following from payment received & pack properly. Please see the type of mailers used here in 'payment & shipping box' below. A very rare record at a very low starting price, with no reserve set. Please see my other items here. Thanks

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 condiition. Records marked 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 displayes 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 notceably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc

Fair (F) The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

Poor (P) The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing Bad (B) The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler

CD's and CASSETTES As a general rule CD's and Cassettes either play perfectly - inwhich case they are in Mint condition - or they don't, in which case their value is minimal. Cassette tape is liable to deteriorate with age, even if it remains unplayed, so care should be taken when buying old tapes. CD's are difficult to grade visually; they can look perfect but actually be faulty, while in other cases they may appear damaged but still play perfectly. Cassette and CD inlays and booklets should be graded in the same way as record covers and sleeves. In general, the plastic containers for cassettes and CDs can easily be replaces if they are broken or scratched, but card covers and digipaks are subject to the same wear as record sleeves
