Miles Davis and the Modern Jazz Giants Prestige #3 16 RPM mono LP. Deep groove pressing with black and white fireworks labels, 446 W. 50th St., N.Y.C. address, and RVG on the trail-off wax.

Condition - Grading is Visual Under Bright Light

The cover is a solid VG+. The front cover graphics are beautiful, and subtle. The corners show wear and rounding, the upper right corner more so and the bottom corners are digne. Seams are nice with a little wear on the lower edge and no splits. The printing on the spine is sharp and clear. The back cover slick has some light age toning and some light staining on the lower left edge. A pretty cover despite the flaws.

LP is a glossy VG+ with some light sleeve wear and hairlines and a long thin scuff on side A, nothing feelable or serious on either side. Labels are clean and beautiful. A solid example of this very rare early Prestige.

Overall not perfect or NM but a solid copy of a rare jazz LP. This copy should make some collector very happy. Check out my other auctions for more rare and interesting records. Winning auctions may be combined to save postage cost. Check out my feedback for results of recent rare record auctions.

Grading

Grading is SS (still sealed), NM, VG+, VG. The myriad of grading systems on Ebay is a good indicator of the subjective nature of grading. In my opinion NM is close to perfect with one or two very minor flaws, VG+ is above average and collectable and VG is average used condition but probably the best choice for playing. I'm a collector and try to describe LPs as accurately as possible, the way I would want them described to me. The pictures should at least give a good indication of the condition of the covers and labels. Please see my seller feedback for comments on my grading. If you don't agree with how I'm calling a record that is your privilege but with all respect please don't bid.
