Watch video of actual playing of this album Battle of the Saxes
Vinyl: VG+ looks beautiful and clean on both sides, with very minimal wear, some light scuffs and hairlines under a light. The Aladdin pressings are known to have some light noise but you will be hard pressed to find a cleaner copy of this original pressing!Very nice!!! (please see video link).
Cover: VG++ A beautiful example of the front cover, it's sharp with minimal wear and just "pops" when you see it. You will not find a cleaner original copy. This is the real deal. No splits. Still has the original pencil price on the back for $3.15. Little more wear showing on the back part that is white. Extremely hard to find in this condition.
Labels: Labels look sharp and clean with minimal wear (see detailed pics). They look very nice
Feel free to ask if there are any questions or additional pics.
Note I use LP cardboard shippers for safe transit and also included the LP will be in a 10" rice paper inner sleeve and 10" outer resealable sleeve for preservation.
I have been a seller on Ebay since 1998 and my credit rating and feedback is excellent.
Vinyl
Near Mint (NM or M-): Near perfect record and cover. No visible flaws or defects (any manufacturing scuffs should be noted). No unexpected surface noise or other audible issues at normal listening volume.
Very Good Plus Plus (VG++): Only a very small number of minor flaws present (ex. a couple of faint hairlines, a light scuff). No unexpected surface noise or other audible issues at normal listening volume. Cover shows no significant ring wear, nor seam splits.
Very Good Plus (VG+): More slight signs of wear but still an excellent condition record that plays well. Any surface noise is very minimal and the record is still an enjoyable listen. No groove wear. Cover may show minor defects including very light ring wear.
Very Good (VG): More obvious wear. Surface noise evident on playing, especially in soft passages, and during a song's intro and fade but never overpowers the music. Ring wear and other defects evident.
Good (G): Worn. Significant surface noise throughout, scratches that produce noise, but will play through without skipping.
Poor (P), or Fair (F): Worn out. Won't play through without skipping or repeating.
