Here I have for sale the original UK-only LP of the 1981 soundtrack to BBC TV’s Playschool and Play Away, featuring vocals by the presenters of the children's shows, arranged by various artists.

Brian Cant, Johnny Ball, Floella Benjamin, Don Spencer, Lucie Skeaping – 'Hello! Songs From BBC TV's Playschool & Playaway' (1981)

Condition (refer also to notes at bottom):
Vinyl – VG-EX. Looks very clean on visual inspection except for a couple of marks through tracks 1 and 2 on side B. Played just pre-listing and sound clarity is superb. The odd click/static, especially through the aforementioned marked cues.
Cover – EX. Colours remain vibrant and unfaded. No damage to the edges. Some slight corner nicks and three or four long vein-like creases, notably in top right corner. Overall, a fine example.
Sleeve – EX. Original. White ‘window’ paper with angled corners. Clean and intact.

ITEM CONDITION - items are graded according to Record Collector definitions - see below:

MINT: 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: 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: 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: 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.

FAIR: 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: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
