Description

From a stock of records recently bought from a small one-stop in Memphis that closed in 1975:  Still Sealed in original factory shrink. There is a 3 inch bit of shrink missing from the front and a larger piece from the back. Minor shelf wear on the shrink itself. Factory shrink has the two breathe holes-one each front and back.
Minor corner dent/wear on lower right and upper left corners. NO dirt particles in the shrink.
If you only collect pristine please note this is 50 years old & again, will show minor shelf wear-See pics.
First press(I THINK): No bar code, no club issue, no anniversary edition, no reissue.

Since I cannot see the matrix numbers or, "So mote be it" title indicating 1st Press....that was later changed to "So mote it be" the only fair way is for the record to be unsealed before shipping to prove it is a first press.

All Records conservatively graded by the VJM Record Grading System(vjm.biz)

VJM GRADING DEFINITIONS

N (78) M (LP). As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).

E+ (78) VG+ (LP). Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets. E+ is the highest grade I use. 

E (78) VG (LP). Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.

E- (78) VG- (LP). Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches. LP: Some wear, scratches and scuffs, but no skipped or repeat grooves.

V+ (78) G+ LP. V+ is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced. LP: Below average with scuffs and scratches on fewer than half the tracks. No skips or repeat grooves.

V (78) G (LP). Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.

V- (78) G- (LP). Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level. LP: Lowest Grade. Audible scratches, etc. on more than half the tracks. Listening uncomfortable.

G+ (78). Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.

G (78). Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.

G- (78). Music still prominent, but wear and scatch damage extensive.

F (78). Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.

P (78). Unplayable.
