Artist: Queen
Title: Hammer to fall 12"
Cat No.: 12Queen4
Label: EMI
Year/Country: 1984 UK
Vinyl Condition: VG+ graded vinyl. A number of non feelable sleeve removal hairlines and whisps to be seen under direct light.
Sleeve Condition: Withdrawn sleeve. Very rare. Only 79 people have this in their collection on Discogs. Sleeve has a corner crease on the bottom left front, and some edge wear. There are no tears or splits.
There was a name on the front when i got the record (under the Q). Because it's a laminated cover i have managed to get rid of 99% of the ink with no damage to the cover. If you hold the sleeve at arms length, unless you tilt it in the light, you can not see anything at all. When you tilt it you can see the in-print of the name. This is on a dark background though so it's not something that you would naturally see. Price reflects this. The only one for sale on Discogs right now is £266. I'm asking a fraction of that

The Boring bit ;
Most of the records I sell have been stored for many years, even decades. Some will have dust that can be seen by the eye, some may look clean but have deep seeded dust from being 40 or 50 years old. This may initially affect the playback quality. I work full time and have a young family so I don’t have time to play every record I list, so if you receive a record and it doesn’t sound as you think it should, please have it properly cleaned (with a good, well known record cleaner) and replay. Unless I have stated that I have, then I will not have play tested the record myself. If you want me to playtest the record and feedback to you before buying, I can do this. Please don’t click buy it now and then ask.
Please do not contact me asking for a part refund. I’ve had a few chancers simply looking for an excuse to claw some money back on their purchase, usually dealers (looking to maximise their sell on profits). Needless to say, this is not how I operate.
I am willing to post abroad.
Please find below a grading system that I tend to go by. Hopefully with this there will be no confusion. Thanks
Very Good (VG)
A VG-rated vinyl has experienced a lot of use. It’s still useable, but it’ll carry a few distortions. Ranked above a G-rated record, a VG-rated record often carries pops and clicks. It might have light visible scratches, and it may have split edges. For the most part, a VG-rated record is undamaged. Upon closer inspection, however, its use will be apparent—both visually and audibly.
Very Good Plus (VG+)
The next step up, a VG+ record has little faults. A VG+ record may have several inaudible marks and a little rub. Fine needle lines are acceptable, however none of these should be felt by touch. Its audio will likely have slight background crackle. As with a VG record, however, close inspection may reveal its age.
Excellent (E)
An Excellent record is similar to a VG+ record. Its light marks will be difficult to spot, however, as will be its audio distortions. A lot of Ex-rated records have been in and out of their sleeve only a few times. A handful or less of hairlines may be present. Their minute signs of use, generally, reflect high-quality care.
Near Mint (NM)
A Near Mint record is a fantastic investment. It looks glossy, and it’s clearly only been played several times. NM vinyl has little to no markings, and its package is either untouched or nearly untouched. Don’t expect to find any distortions on a NM record. In essence: A NM record is imperfect only in its one-or-two-time use.
Mint (M)
A Mint record is perfect. It’s never been played, and it might’ve never been removed from its package. It’s fully sealed, and it has no blemishes or audio distortions.
