This vinyl release is described at the DISCOGS website - link as follows: https://www.discogs.com/Matching-Mole-Matching-Moles-Little-Red-Record/release/435761
I use the Record Collector Vinyl Grading system, which can be viewed at: http://www.ebay.co.uk/gds/RECORD-COLLECTOR-VINYL-RECORD-GRADING-GUIDE-/10000000001916909/g.html I use the refinement of "+" and "-" grades as it is a more informative way of describing the condition when it sits between 2 grades.
The vinyl is visually in superb MINT- condition, with no scratches or marks.
During play test it also played superbly, apart from a brief soft fizz that can be heard in the background during track 1 of side 1. (There are no marks on the vinyl, so this might possibly clear with professional cleaning). The vinyl is hence rated as EX+
The cover was not a laminate finish, but is in excellent shape, with an excellent spine, with only minor wear and ageing on the corners and outer edges.
The rating for the cover is EX+.
The inner sleeve is the CBS original orange sleeve.
The record will be posted in a MusicMAX STRONG LOCKTAB RECORD MAILER.
