Record has been graded visually and has been played through to assess quality.
Visual Grading- GOOD-.
Side 1. GOOD+ Vinyl looks well played with lots of surface marks but no deep scratches. Minimal spindle wear. K.T. tax code embossed on centre label.
Side 2. GOOD Vinyl has many noticeable surface scratches and some quite deep scuffs. Spindle wear evident.
Acoustic Grading GOOD
Side A: GOOD. The record is warped but plays through without jumping or sticking. The surface scratches are mainly noticeable in quieter passages and between tracks. There is some evidence of groove wear in sound quality.
Side B GOOD. Plays through without skipping or jumping. Clicks and ticks evident throughout especially in quieter passages. There is some evidence of groove wear in sound quality.
Sleeve-GOOD- The Garrod & Lofthouse laminated gatefold cover has the flipback glue-tabs on the inner spread). The laminate on the front has two small areas where it is lifting but has not pealed and there are few creases. The back has more extensive creasing but the laminate is shiny and intact. The inside of the sleeve is in good condition. There is a name written in faded ballpoint pen on the flipback glue tab. The spine and edges are splitting.
NOTE: The card insert and original red inner sleeve are missing
OVERALL- According to Discogs- in mint condition, this recording has sold for in excess of £249. This record is by no means mint (I wish) so prior to bidding please bear in mind the grading above and below. To conclude, the record has obviously been well played over the last 50+ years and is showing signs of its age. However it is playable, collectible and is available here at a realistic, low starting price.
Returns accepted if you are not happy. (Buyer must pay for return of the item in same condition it was received)

Discogs Grading Good (G)
Vinyl
Generally worth 10-15% of the Near Mint value. A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be played through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise, scratches, and visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear, or other defects will be present. While the record will be playable without skipping, noticeable surface noise and "ticks" will almost certainly accompany the playback.
