Description
The vinyl is a pleasure to hear but has some surface noise, mostly on the run-in and between the tracks. Surface noise rarely is heard during the music. The vinyl is rated VG. The cover does not show ringwear, but has some scuffs on the front and a water mark on the back. See the photos. The top and bottom seams have been rubbed but they are intact. The spine is intact and handsome. No clipped corner, notch, or cutout hole. No writing, tape, or stickers. The cover is graded VG, could arguably be VG+. Records are play-graded, but when visual grading is different from the sound, the record is marked at the lower grade.
Liner notes by Studs Terkel.
You can save on shipping by combining several items. Please see our other records. Order two records at the same time with NO INCREASE in shipping charge for domestic shipping. Records are removed from the cover before shipping to save the seams. Both are packed in a plastic sleeve, bubble-wrapped, sandwiched between cardboard, then packed in a box designed for shipping records.
If you have a question or a problem, please contact me. I will resolve it. I accept returns with full credit, though the buyer pays return postage. Please see our other records.
The following Goldmine descriptions were used for grading:
· NM (Near Mint) ---- A nearly perfect record. The disc looks as if you just got it home from a new record store. Many brand new discs do not meet this standard. The jacket should show no obvious signs of wear with no creases, folds, seam splits or cut-out holes.
· VG+ (Very Good Plus) ---- A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some slight signs of wear such as slight scuffs or very light scratches that don’t affect the listening experience. The label may have some ring wear or discoloration but it would be barely noticeable. The jacket may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or corner indicating it was sold at a discount.
· VG (Very Good) ---- Surface noise will be evident, especially in soft passages, but will not overpower the music. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as will light scratches that will affect the sound. Labels and the jacket may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers attached. Ring wear, scuffing, or seam splitting may be present on the jacket. Many of the defects in a VG+ jacket will be more pronounced in a VG one. The jacket will not have all of these problems at the same time.
· G (Good) ---- Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put on a turntable and will play through without skipping or sticking. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear. A jacket 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.
