25

Clean, 1st US press of Rush's Hemispheres with Masterdisk and G.K. initials in deadwax.  Record is visually graded as VG+and Side Two is visually VG+.   No spindle marks.  A few wispy hairlines.   Nice cover overall with no seam splits, no ringwear.   A cover scratch on the lower right and few nicks are only blemishes. Some wear on spine at top and along edge.  Original Mercury insert is clean with no wrinkling.  It does have a 2" seam split on right side and 3" seam split on bottom, common for 80s paper sleeves.

All used records cleaned prior to shipment on my new Degritter 2 ULTRASONIC record cleaning machine.  Will be shipped with archival inner sleeve to protect original printed inner, with record placed outside of the jacket to avoid seam splits and everything is contained and protected in an outer plastic sleeve.  Comes from smoke-free, climate controlled home.  Shipped securely in premium record mailer (Mighty Music Mailers) with corner protection to ensure safe arrival to your home. 

If you buy more than one item, I will combine shipping to save you money whenever possible for multiple items purchased at same time.  Just send me a request before paying and I will submit an invoice to you for the new total to pay.

New/Sealed

Jacket sealed in shrink wrap; Record unplayed.  Disc sold ungraded or "as is".

NM

Under bright light, appears unplayed or only played with great care and looks quite pristine/like new.   Only the very finest examples make this grade.

EX

Under bright light, may have one or two slight, but visible imperfections (i.e. sleeve scuffs, faint ‘hairline’ scratches, or other superficial marks) that will not affect play.  Overall, very clean.   May play as good as a Near Mint record, but visibly has minor imperfections.

VG+

Several visible imperfections. Has seen more wear and play than the higher grades, but still overall a very nice record. May have a few more sleeve scuffs or light unfeel-able scratches, or other superficial marks than an EX-graded record.

VG

VG will show signs of improper care or frequent play and handling, and will possibly have some deeper, feel-able scratch(es) that may make audible noise upon playback.  Generally meant to be either a starter copy or purchased to get a sense of sound quality of a particular pressing.
