THE KINKS - Arthur or the decline and fall of the British Empire

Original U.K. stereo LP

Pye LP (NSPL 18317) Rare original Stereo pressing on the blue Pye label in front laminated gatefold sleeve. record is a deep red colour when held up to a strong light. Comes with the rare Queen Victoria insert with the "pull" tab for removing the album inside the insert. The vinyl on this copy is really nice, still in great collectable condition with practically no spindle wear, has had few plays. However, the sleeves on these were so thin & this one has suffered like most, especially along & around the spine. It is not torn or written on but suffers from a fair amount of creasing. It is also the Mono sleeve which many Stereo pressings were sold inside at the time of release.

Condition

Sleeve: VG (No writing or tears, a small splt on the bottom of the spine, otherwise some bends & laminate creases & spine wear with some slight laminate loss)   Record: Excellent + (Still has its original sheen with few signs of being played, No scratches or hairlines)  
Our grading is strict so as not to dissapoint, we have been selling on ebay since 1998 & know how important this is. Grading of records is done with the record angled under a 100 Watt bulb. Scans are of actual item up for auction. All records are packed securely & most importantly packed outside of the picture sleeve (in a plain inner sleeve) so as to avoid seam splits during shipping.

Near Mint

Almost mint.Very minor paper scuffs and very little else can appear on the vinyl. This will most likely have occurred during packaging, or removing the record from the inner sleeve but obviously it had been handled with extreme care.Any flaw should be very hard to see. The cover should look as close to perfect with only minor signs of wear and/or age. Minor impressions to the cover (due to the outer edge of the vinyl resting inside) may be acceptable, however the artwork should be as close to perfect as can be.

Excellent

An excellent condition for vinyl will allow minor scuffs (Scuffs lay on top of the grooves) which are visible but only slightly.The wear should be minimal.The play should be close to perfect as well. Some impression to the cover (minor outer ring wear) but no ink wear. Some slight creases to the corners, but not wrinkled and obtrusive to the eye. The corners can show a little white, meaning slight wear. No seam splits or writing on the cover or taped repairs.

VG++

As Excellent but with a larger number of scuffs, maybe a couple of hairlines (very light scratch that can't be felt) or a couple of marks. Sound quality should still be very close to that of an Excellent record with only minor crackle in quiet segments only, NO scratches that can be felt. Cover as Excellent but there may be a small seam split on the cover, or a very minimal amount of writing like a name written in small writing or a number. A VG++ record should be an acceptable record to live with if you aren't looking to pay the price of a Near Mint copy.
