Original cover with Kakubushi frames in cover, thin spine and 767 Lexington Ave address at bottom of back cover. Record has 2 very light sleeve scuffs and some marks on the first track on side one that look like a small bit of something got in there. As a result, side one has 8 repetitive clicks near end of 1st track, 7 clicks on the 3rd track and the rest of the side plays with light surface noise in a few spots. Side 2 has light surface noise at the beginning, repetitive light ticks toward the end of track 3 that also go into just the beginning of track 4. The rest of the side plays cleanly. Cover has light shelf wear, 1 1/2 inch bend at the bottom right corner, rounded bottom left corner, 4 inch split in the middle of the bottom seam and seam wear on the bottom seam only.

We do not play grade MOST of our records so we guarantee our visual grading with a money back guarantee that includes shipping.All records are visually graded under bright light (200 Watts of truth!). If we do play grade a record, we will let you know about any noise or flaws in detail in our description. You may or may not agree with our grade or grading system but our description will be complete and accurate for you to make your own grade assessment. Generally, we do not list records below EX- condition unless it is exceptionally rare. We do not recommend audiophiles bid on records in less than NM condition. Our grading standard is as follows.

Mint is only used for sealed records or records that we are certain have never been played.

NM or Near Mint is for the most part as good as it gets! No marks and will play clean with no noise unless inherent in the pressing.

EX+ Will generally have minor flaws like sleeve scuffs, but will overall be near mint.

EX or Excellent will have light surface marks and some light background noise in spots and/or a couple light clicks or ticks.

EX- Overall an Excellent copy with light surface marks, but with something that distracts, like a small scratch that makes a few pops or a few light repetitive clicks.

VG+  Consistent background noise or a few pops. No skips or sticking. Still a playable copy.

VG will have problems. Noise will dominate. May have quite a few pops and possibly a quick skip. Groove distortion possible.

VG- Will probably have a skip or two and will be noisy throughout.

G = Our lowest grade and is actually a poor record.

Cover grading -

Mint = perfect!

NM = Damn near perfect, at most a minor corner impact.

EX+ = Overall near mint but with up to 3 minor flaws such as a minor corner impact, small amount of writing like a name or date or less than 1/2 inch split or very slight shelf wear.

EX = May have one split up to 3 inches, light shelf wear, corner impact up to 1/2 inch or light shelf wear.

EX- Splits up to 3 inches or one split up to 5 inches, light to moderate shelf wear or ring wear.

VG+ = Possible full length split on one seam, moderate shelf wear but still holding together plus other flaws.

VG = splits, wear, a filler cover.

VG- or below = rough! All cover flaws will be well described.
