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 excellent+ condition. It has just a couple of spindle marks visible the labels and there are no pen marks, stains or scuffs anywhere. The centres show no wear and overall the labels are clean, bright and in great shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are very clean and have nothing remotely serious visible. There is a couple of very minor and faint thin light lines showing on side 1 but these are incredibly minor and only really visible when angled. Other than these there is just very slight signs of handling and certainly nothing at all obvious. Overall a very clean record with minimal signs of use. 

I play tested the record and it played really well throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. The audio is of very nice quality from start to finish. There was a trace of surface noise in the run ins on both sides but the intros to each side are loud and clear. There is then little to report with obviously no skips, sticks or tics and little to no interference of any sort. Overall a really nice sounding lp which was a pleasure to play test. 

The sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It has no major wear or rubbing to the edges and corners but there is some along the bottom edge. The other edges show little however and the sleeve is all clearly legible. There is no obvious ring marks on the sleeve and just a few minor creases in places. There is a hint of age related grubbiness around the front top right area but this is pretty minor. It has its original sticker present and overall is a tidy sleeve with just light signs of its age. 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.

The original plain white poly-lined inner is included and is in excellent+ condition with just minor signs of age. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement to ensure it remains clean and no damage occurs to the original.   

Also included is its large fold out poster which is in excellent condition. This has no tears, pen marks or serious issues and just light creases where is has been folded. 

The record will be packaged in between cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to try to ensure a swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough 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.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
