All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if purchased.

This record is in excellent+ condition. It has some spindle marks visible on the labels but no pen marks, scuffs, fading or staining anywhere. The centres show next to no wear and are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in good shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a vivid lustre and show only light signs of use in normal light. There is a few very light surface lines and very minor light 'sleeve marks' in places but overall it is excellent and has nothing remotely nasty or serious showing. So overall a used vintage record which has no nasty scuffs or serious marks and has a lovely vivid lustre. It does have some light signs of use and minor lines in places but these are really minor. 

I play tested the record and it played very well. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is next to no arm movement noticeable. The audio is excellent throughout with no skips, sticks or tics and little to no surface noise. I noted next to nothing during the play test other and a few of the most minor splutters in the really quiet intro to side 1. Overall the audio is very clear and sounds great even the mellow parts.

The sleeve is in very good+ condition. It has only light wear to the edges and corners with the writing along the spine all still legible. There are no splits and the sleeve is still strong all round. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks but there is a few minor creases in places. There is also light ring marks showing to each side and also grubbiness/discolouring throughout. The grubbiness/discolouring is the main reason for lowering the grading as other than this there is no major issues. Despite the discolouring and the ight wear it still strong all round however and has no really serious issues. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

Its original picture inner seems to be missing and so it will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement.

The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to try to ensure a swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
