Due to the overwhelming response to the Blind Blake and Blind Lemon Jefferson records, we thought it would be necessary to go into more detail on the grading.  As stated in Goldmine Magazine:

VERY GOOD or VG: The Very Good Grade does not mean Very good at all. At least not in the visual sense. A Very Good (VG) record will appear well played but still have some luster. The vinyl may be faded, slightly grayish, yet appears to have been handled as carefully as it could have been helped. Records that get continuous playing time will start to deteriorate. More and more surface scuffs and scratches, and audible sound defects WILL be heard. They should not overpower the dynamics of the music. With VG records, the surface noise will be minor crackle or a slight hiss, but should only be heard in between tracks or in low musical passages.

Along with the description above as well as my own visual inspection, there is a tiny nick (outside the playing area) on the edge of the Blind Blake (Tootie Blues) side.  On the "That Lovin I Crave" side there is a scratch (as shown in the picture).  The scratch is not deep and does not cause the record to skip.

On the Blind Lemon Jefferson, there are a couple nicks on the edge of the "See that my Grave Is Kept Clean" side.

Paramount records have been known to have a higher surface noise at the begining of the song.
