THIS IS THE RARE 3rd PRESSING THAT MISTAKINGLY INCLUDED AN EXTRA 33⅓ ON BOTH SIDES OF THE LABEL. REALISING THEIR MISTAKE THE ALBUM WAS WITHDRAWN AND THE NEXT PRESSING EXCLUDED THE SMALL 33⅓.     IT HAS HAIRLINES, A FEW MINOR SCUFFS AND SCRATCHES, BUT THESE HARDLY SOUND (EXCEPT IN BETWEEN TRACKS), AND IT PLAYS EXCEPTIONALLY WELL WITH NO STICKS OR JUMPS, IT DOES HOWEVER HAVE OCCASSIONAL VERY SOFT CLICKS AND SOFT CRACKLES ONLY PROMINENT IN QUIETER SECTIONS. NO WRITING ON THE LABELS. HAS A LABEL REMOVAL MARK, SPINDLE MARKS AND SOME SPINDLE WEAR OR LABEL SCRATCHES.

THE COVER:    VERY GOOD

THIS THE ORIGINAL SLEEVE WITH THE CORRECTLY ALIGNED 'Photo: Angus McBean' WORDING ON THE FRONT. HAS NO MAJOR DAMAGE. MINOR CREASES. SOME AGEING /STAINING ON REAR SLEEVE, NO RING WEAR, SOME CORNER WEAR /BUMPS, A LITTLE EDGE WEAR MAINLY TO BOTTOM EDGE. VERY LITTLE SPINE WEAR AND IT'S COMPLETELY READABLE. SLIGHTLY GRUBBY (AGE WEAR AND STAINS) ON THE REAR (see photos), THE FLIPBACKS ARE ALMOST COMPLETE (EXCEPT BOTTOM EDGE (see photos) AND SECURE. NO SELLOTAPE, NO WRITING BUT HAS A LABEL REMOVAL SURFACE TEAR. 

THE INNER SLEEVE:   EXCELLENT

Emitex plastic lined inner sleeve is clean and unmarked. No edge splits. No tears. No sellotape. No stains. Has no writing.

Strictly Graded Using RECORD COLLECTOR Grading System

Grading System:  I have used Record Collector magazine set of standards for the condition of second-hand records. I have added a (+) or (-) to my gradings where applicable.

MINT:   The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as sealed or unplayed should be Mint.  (NOTE: As far as I am concerned MINT will never apply to second hand vinyl records).

EXCELLENT:   The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD:   The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD:   The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR:   The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR:   The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD:   The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.

I grade all records in accordance with the Rare Record Price Guide (see above). However, if you feel I have graded your record incorrectly please email me ASAP so we can resolve the problem amicably.

Post & Packaging - I recycle all packaging so you will get your goods in recycled packaging. All items over £20 are sent ‘Tracked' and I always obtain 'Proof of Posting' for cheaper items. All items are securely and properly packaged and vinyl is sent using double corrugated cardboard stiffeners or similar.
