Fold out laminated (gatefold) sleeve
A very nice 12" vinyl release celebrating Robert Johnson on Philips
Vinyl is in NM condition and looks hardly played. This piece of vinyl still carries a beautiful sheen and good lustre. The original textured black labels are excellent and there is no spindle wear, surface wear, dirt or warps.
The part laminated gatefold sleeve is graded VG++/EX. The laminate is still Excellent throughout apart from some lifting towards the spine area. The colours are still bright and bold. The rear and inner gatefold of the sleeve are clean and have retained their whiteness well. These sleeves are notoriously flimsy but this one is still in excellent condition. Nice.
A genuine and collectable classic Blues LP, in general Excellent condition.
Please check my other auctions for many more classic original UK and US Jazz and Blues records from a large and well looked after collection.
I have used photographs and description to show the record condition to the best of my ability - However please contact me with any questions that you may have
Records will be mailed in a strong corrugated cardboard cruciform style mailer.
I use the UK record collector grading guide as detailed below.
Records are visually graded unless stated as play graded
Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.
As well as the above grades, Near Mint is often used as well; this is really for a record that appears new but is known to have been played because the label has light spindle marks or because it has come from a previous owner and is assumed to have been played by them. For records which appear to fall between the accepted grades, + and - are also often added to the grading.
