This thick, heavy vinyl retains its fine original sheen and looks carefully played a few times

  Visual

Excepting rare, extremely light , hardly visible under a strong bulb lamp sleeve scuffs, the playing surface looks free of other noticeable signs of handling as marks, scratches, groove wear

    Audio grade

Side A : EXCELLENT++ to NEAR MINT

With just one short, occasional, mostly insignificant episode of extremely light background cracklin', softly feelable well below the music level in a quieter passage, not affecting the listening experience whatsoever. With NO skips, NO surface or background noise

Side B : EXCELLENT++

Plays loud and clean with NO noticeable blemishes. With only rare, short, occasional, mostly insignificant episodes of light background cracklin', softly feelable below the music level in quieter passages, not affecting the listening experience whatsoever. With NO skips, NO surface or background noise

 Cleaned with CLEAR AUDIO VACUUM MATRIX using its PURE GROOVE professional solution

COVER : EXCELLENT

Original solid framed cardboard jacket 

 The front side retains its striking, glossy original shape with NO shelf wear

one tiny impact to the opening edge

a couple of light "hairline" wrinkles near the bottom left corner

Tight seams and fully readable spine almost INTACT

  With NO ring-wear, NO dog-eared corners, NO seams splits, NO tears, NO writings, NO stamps, NO holes
