THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1962 PRESSING ON THE YELLOW TAMLA LABEL WITH BLACK PRINT #TM-231 RECORDED IN HIGH FIDELITY! THIS HAS THE GLOBE/RECORD SYMBOL ON TOP.

THIS WAS RELEASED IN 1962 THE SAME YEAR AS THE WHITE LABEL AND VALUED THE SAME ACCORDING TO GOLDMINE

VISUALLY,THE 53 YEAR OLD THICK VINYL PLATTER IS IN VG- TO VG CONDITION! I HAVE EXAMINED THIS UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT AND DO SEE THAT THE RARE PLATTER HAS RETAINED MUCH OF IT'S DEEP RICH LUSTER!

I DO SEE MANY LIGHT SCUFFS/HAIRLINE SCRATCHES WITH PORTIONS OF SEVERAL THAT I CONSIDERED TO BE JUST BARELY FEEL-ABLE. NOTHING DEEP ENOUGH TO SERIOUSLY AFFECT THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE TO THE POINT OF BEING UN-ENJOYABLE!

THE LABELS ARE FREE FROM ANY WRITING OR STICKERS. THEY SHOW VERY MINOR WEAR AND ARE IN VG TO EX CONDITION!

THE COVER PRESENTS PROUDLY! THERE IS NO SPLITTING, TAPE, WRITING, OR STICKERS ANYWHERE!  BOTH SEAMS ARE UN- SPLIT, STRONG & TIGHT! THE SPINE IS VERY STRONG, TIGHT AND  PERFECTLY READABLE WITH LIGHT WEAR AT THE CORNERS. THERE IS MINOR RING/SHELF WEAR TO FRONT SIDE AND VERY MINOR TO THE REVERSE. THE REVERSE SIDE LINER NOTES ARE EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN, INFORMATIVE & PERFECTLY READABLE! 

BASED ON THE ABOVE IMPERFECTIONS THE COVER GRADES EX!

I HAVE PLAY GRADED THIS AND THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE WAS EXCELLENT! THERE WAS SOME  MINOR NOISE UNDERNEATH THE MUSIC. IT WAS PRESENT THROUGHOUT BUT MORE PREVALENT IN THE QUIET PASSAGES.  A FEW VERY SOFT TICS HERE & THERE BUT NOTHING I CONSIDERED TO DISTRACTING OR OVERWHELMING IN ANY WAY!

THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE WAS AWESOME...WHAT A GREAT SELECTION OF TUNES!

THERE WERE NO SKIPS, STICKS, OR LOUD DISTRACTING POPS, HISSES, CLICKS, TICKS OR BURPS!

THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE GRADES EX!

OVERALL, CONSIDERING ALL OF THE ABOVE THIS ROCKIN' LP GRADES VG

ALL THAT BEING  SAID, IF YOU TEND TO BE ON THE FUSSY SIDE AND FIND YOURSELF RETURNING LP'S OFTEN, THIS IS MOST LIKELY NOT FOR YOU!!

IT DOESN'T LOOK REAL PRETTY BUT THE MARVELETTES STILL SOUND LOUD AND PROUD! AN AWESOME RECORD TO TAKE TO A PARTY AND WILL SERVE WELL UNTIL THAT NRMT ONE COMES ACROSS YOUR PATH!

WE USE GOLDMINE AS GUIDELINE FOR OUR GRADING SYSTEM.

ALL RECORDS ARE VISUALLY INSPECTED UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. I TRY TO PLAY GRADE WHEN POSSIBLE OR AT LEAST IN ANY AREAS IDENTIFIED AS QUESTIONABLE FROM THE VISUAL INSPECTION.

MINT

Mint records are in most cases sealed in original shrink wrap. The only wear permissible is to the shrink wrap itself.

NEAR-MINT

 NM records have glossy vinyl. There are no visible defects such as writing, tape, or stickers on the labels. The labels should not contain any spindle marks (from someone blindly trying to put the record on the turntable) The vinyl may have a few extremely fine hairline scratches or light scuffs that do not affect the sound quality. The vinyl will "appear" to have been unplayed (It may very well have been played and well-cared for) The album cover will have NO writing, tape, creases, folds, seam splits ,stains, ring wear or Promo holes or cuts!

VG+ (EXCELLENT)

VG+ records have glossy vinyl. Slight signs of wear, including light scuffs, very light scratches or slight warping that does not  seriously affect the listening experience is permissible. Very slight intermittent background noise mostly in the quiet passages is acceptable. 

The album cover will have no more than three of the following imperfections: light writing such as initials or name in one area, minor creasing, seam splits not larger than 1".  Neatly taped seams of 2" or less. It may also contain very slight ring wear or discoloration, a promo stamp, punch hole or cut-out as originally sold.

VG

VG Records have more obvious flaws such as more pronounced scratches & lack of gloss. Groove wear and scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail are common. When played there will be surface noise but it should not continuously overpower the music. There are NO skips permissible with no more than 1.5 grahams of tracking force. It is common to hear crackling and pops especially in the quiet passages. The labels may contain writing such as a persons name or initials or it may contain a piece of tape or sticker with or without writing. The cover may have some seam splits, writing, tape, stickers, ring wear and scuffs.

VG-

VG- All of the defects listed VG category would be more pronounced. The record will play through without skipping WITH NORMAL tracking force. A quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of tracking force are permissible. The record will have many obvious flaws but still enjoyable to listen to. Generally if the record is rare, it is still highly collectible.

G/G+

Good (G), Good Plus (G+) Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping WITH NORMAL tracking force. A quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of tracking force are permissible. It will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white). A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.
