VISUAL GRADING

Side A: M-

The playing surface looks rarely played, and retains nice gloss.

There are NO visual blemishes, so visual grade is M-

No scuffs, NO marks, NO scratches, NO hairlines!

Perfect!

Side B: M-

Same as Side A, No scuffs, NO marks, NO scratches, NO blemishes of any kind.

Four extremely light hairlines which absolutely do NOT sound are to mention, otherwise perfect in everyway.

Beautiful!

AUDIO GRADING: M-

Plays perfect on both sides with NO noticeable acoustic imperfection of any kind!

NO tics, NO pops, NO clicks. NO surface or background noise.

This LP sounds superb (the CAST is really great) and is fully playgraded, so bid with confidence!

You'll receive beautiful High Fidelity sound!

COVER GRADING: VG+

1st original laminated front cover displays in beautiful condition with sharp corners, tight seams and spine fully readable.

NO ringwear, NO tears, NO stains.

Rear jacket is a little yellowed due to age, fully readable, the seams and spine and corners have light abrasions (see pics).

There is seamsplit on the upper side for 5 inches from the opening.

Would be easy to repair from inside of this FRAMED COVER, but I'll leave that to the new owner.

Cover address on back: 47 West 63rd St. New York 23

Comes with the original inner sleeve which is unprinted.

NOTE:

- cleaned on a Loricraft PRC 6 record cleaning machine with use of 'L'Art du Son' cleaning liquid.

- playgraded on a Linn System with use of mono or stereo cartridge

- graded by Goldmine Standard.

- all records will be shipped in very sturdy cardboard mailers,

additional protected by double bubble wrap.

Vinyl will be put outside the cover, hosted in a new antistatic inner sleeve (after cleaning) to prevent seamsplits during shipping process.
