VISUALLY, THE 50 YEAR OLD THICK VINYL PLATTER IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION!

I HAVE EXAMINED THIS UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT AND SEE THAT THE VERY THICK RARE PLATTER STILL HAS MOST OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTER. I DO SEE MANY EXTREMELY LIGHT PAPER SCUFFS/HAIRLINES. (MOSTLY THE SWIRLY VARIETY) NONE OF WHICH WERE FEEL-ABLE NOR DID THE EFFECT THE OUTSTANDING LISTENING EXPERIENCE!

THE LABELS ARE FREE OF ANY WRITING OR STICKERS BUT DO SHOW SOME SPINDLE TRAILS AND IT APPEARS THERE WAS A LABEL REMOVED FROM SIDE 2 BY A PREVIOUS OWNER. VERY LITTLE DAMAGE (WHERE IS SAYS BIGTOP)

OVERALL I GRADE THE VINYL AS EXCELLENT!

THE COVER PRESENTS EXCEPTIONALLY WELL! THERE IS NO SPLITTING, WRITING, TAPE OR STICKERS ANYWHERE! THE SPINE IS STRONG & TIGHT PERFECTLY READABLE! BOTH SEAMS ARE UN-SPLIT AND TIGHT! THERE NO REAL EVIDENCE OF ANY RING/SHELF WEAR TO EITHER SIDE! THE COVER HAS RETAINED MOST OF IT'S ORIGINAL GLOSS! THE REVERSE SIDE LINER NOTES ARE EXCEPTIONAL CLEAN & TOTALLY READABLE & CLEAN. THE CORNERS DO SHOW SOME VERY MINOR WEAR

THERE ARE SOME MINOR DINGS/CREASES/SCUFFS & SOILING AS SHOWN.

BASED ON THE ABOVE IMPERFECTIONS THE COVER GRADES  EX+ TO NRMT- AND PRESENTS VERY PROUDLY!

I HAVE  PLAY GRADED THIS MOMENTS AGO AND THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE WAS  EXCELLENT! THERE WAS SOME VERY MINOR SURFACE NOISE UNDERNEATH THE MUSIC HERE AND THERE, MOSTLY NOTICEABLE BETWEEN THE SONGS. A COUPLE OF EXTREMELY LIGHT  TICKS THAT YOU REALLY HAD TO LISTEN FOR, CERTAINLY NOTHING I WOULD SAY WAS  DISTRACTING OR OVERPOWERING IN ANY WAY.

OVERALL THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE GRADES EX+!

ALL RECORDS ARE VISUALLY INSPECTED UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. I TRY TO PLAY GRADE WHEN POSSIBLE OR AT LEAST IN ANY AREAS IDENTIFIED AS QUESTIONABLE FROM THE VISUAL INSPECTION.

MINT

Mint records are in most cases sealed in original shrink wrap. The only wear permissible is to the shrink wrap itself.

NEAR-MINT

NM records have glossy vinyl. There are no visible defects such as writing, tape, or stickers on the labels. The labels should not contain any spindle marks(from someone blindly trying to put the record on the turntable) The vinyl may have a few extremely fine hairline scratches or light scuffs that do not affect the sound quality. The vinyl will "appear" to have been unplayed (It may very well have been played and well-cared for)The album cover will haveNO writing, tape, creases, folds, seam splits,stains, ring wear or Promo holes or cuts!

VG+(EXCELLENT)

VG+records have glossy vinyl. Slight signs of wear, including light scuffs, very light scratches or slight warping that does not seriously affect the listening experience is permissible. Very slight intermittent background noise mostly in the quiet passages is acceptable.

The album cover will have no more than three of the following imperfections: light writing such as initials or name in one area, minor creasing, seam splitsnot larger than 1". Neatly taped seams of 2" or less.It may also contain very slight ring wear or discoloration, a promo stamp, punch hole or cut-out as originally sold.

VG

VG Recordshave more obvious flaws such as more pronounced scratches & lack of gloss. Groove wear and scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail are common. When played there will be surface noise but it should not continuously overpower the music. There areNO skips permissible with no more than 1.5 grahams of tracking force. It is common to hear crackling and pops especially in the quiet passages. The labels may contain writing such as a persons name or initials or it may contain a piece of tape or sticker with or without writing. The cover may have some seam splits, writing, tape, stickers, ring wear and scuffs.

VG-

VG- All of the defects listed VG category would be more pronounced. The record will play through without skipping WITH tracking force. A quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of tracking force are permissible. The record will have many obvious flaws but still enjoyable to listen to. Generally if the record is rare, it is still highly collectible.

G+

Good (G), Good Plus (G+) Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping WITH tracking force. A quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of tracking force are permissible. It will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white). A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.
