THIS ONE IS NOT!!! THE COVER/SLEEVE IS IN A FANTASTIC CONDITION AND THE VINYL PLAYS EXCEPTIONALLY WELL.

       QUALITY VINYL                                 EXTENDED PLAY 45 RPM.

PROFESSIONALLY GRADED AS.... 

VINYL ~ EXCELLENT-  THIS RECORD PLAYS EXCELLENT- TO EXCELLENT OR BETTER THROUGHOUT, WITH ONLY LIGHT SURFACE NOISE WHEN PLAYING. NO POPS NO CLICKS NO SKIPS OR JUMPS. VISUALLY IT DOES HAVE A NUMBER OF SURFACE MARKS OF WHICH MOST ARE VERY LIGHT AND THEY HAVE LESS EFFECT ON SOUND QUALITY THAN ONE WOULD INITIALLY EXPECT.

 LABELS ~  EXCELLENT+   THERE ARE  NO TEARS, NO STAINS, NO WRITING, NO PEN MARKS, NO WEAR, OTHER THAN A LITTLE SLIGHT WEAR TO THE SPINDLE HOLE ON SIDE 2. NO STICKERS HAVE EVER BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE LABELS. THERE ARE ONLY JUST A FEW VERY LIGHT AND HARD TO SPOT SPINDLE MARKS.

SLEEVE / COVER ~ EXCELLENT   NOT OFTEN IS A COVER/SLEEVE  OF THIS 1957 EP TO BE FOUND IN SUCH GREAT CONDITION. THE REAR IS LAMINATED AND HAS CLEANED UP GREAT. THERE IS LITTLE FADING WITH AGE. THE FRONT IS LAMINATED AND IS AS BRILLIANT AS THE REAR. THERE IS NO LOOSE LAMINATE ON FRONT OR REAR AND THE LAMINATE IS TOTALLY INTACT. THERE ARE ONLY SOME SMALL MINOR CREASE MARKS BOTH FRONT AND REAR. SMALL MINOR CREASES ONLY. GENERALLY GREAT ALL ROUND WITH ONLY SLIGHT WEAR, ALL THE EDGES, CORNERS AND THE SPINE ARE STRAIGHT, TRUE, FIRM AND SOLID. THERE IS VERY LITTLE WEAR OR SCUFFING TO THE EDGES AT ALL, OFTEN THE OPENING EDGES ARE PRETTY SOFT AND NOT STRAIGHT THESE ONES ARE NOT, THEY ARE FAIRLY CRISP. IN FACT THE EDGES AND SPINE ARE MORE OR LESS NEAR MINT WITH ONLY VERY SLIGHT WEAR /SCUFFING TO THE CORNERS. THERE IS ONLY A VERY LIGHT/SLIGHT RING MARK. THERE ARE NO PEN MARKS, NO WRITING IN INK OR PENCIL. THERE IS A SLIGHT INDENT ON THE FRONT TOP LEFT FROM A SMALL P BEING WRITTEN ORIGINALLY BUT THE INK OR PENCIL IS NO LONGER PRESENT AND IT IS BARELY NOTICABLE. THERE ARE NO TEARS, NO SPLITS OF ANY KIND. THERE ARE NO MAJOR OR SIGNIFICANT CREASES. IF AGE WAS A FACTOR IN THE GRADING OF THIS SLEEVE (INCREDIBLY BEING VERY CLOSE TO 50 YEARS OLD) IT WOULD THEN GRADE EXCELLENT++.

As Always The Record Collector Guidelines Have Been Used.

I HOPE TO MAINTAIN A REPUTATION FOR HONEST GRADING AND ACCURATE  DESCRIPTIONS, SO I AM CAREFUL  NOT TO OVERGRADE. 

 I ALWAYS TRY TO TAKE THE BEST PHOTOS I CAN.
