All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if purchased.
This record is in very good+ condition. It has some spindle marks visible on each label but there are not loads. There is also no pen marks, scuffs, stains or major issues. There is some light wear around the centres but nothing extreme and they are not loose. Overall the iconic yellow and black Parlophone labels are in good shape with all text legible and no really major issues to report.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides show some general and light signs of use and age but have no deep, nasty or major marks/scratches. There is light lines showing, minor scuffs and general handling marks/signs of use/age. Overall a used vintage lp that has signs of play and use but is also not trashed. It still has a nice lustre and is in good playable condition overall.
I play tested the record and it played nicely. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no arm movement. The audio produced is a strong grade of VG+ with no skips, sticks or annoying tics. There is some light surface noise in the run ins and a little between tracks but the vast majority of the audio of good clarity and nice quality. Overall a very enjoyable listen throughout with no major faults and generally nice tidy audio.
The front laminated sleeve(Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd) is in very good+ condition. It is generally tidy with no major faults but does have a few things to mention. Firstly there is a pen mark to the rear top left corner area. There is also some general age related discolouring/grubbiness to the rear. There is also some light creases to the laminated front, mild ring marks showing and some slight bruising to all four corners. Overall a solid and generally tidy sleeve but one that has some general signs of its age and the pen mark as mentioned. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.
It includes its original 'Use Emitex' inner which is solid and generally tidy with no splits, tears or major issues. It does have some signs of age however with minor creasing and light discolouring. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure it is clean and ready to play.
I hope my photos are comprehensive enough(can provide more of any marks/wear on vinyl if required but could not upload any more due to 12 photo limit reached) but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
