· CONDITION:
· RECORD
(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)
(a) WE GRADE THE VINYL AS STRONG VG++, just a notch below NEAR MINT. A few light abrasions (probably just sleeve scuffs inflicted in storage over the years) ARE VISIBLE, but they appear fairly insignificant relative to the overall condition of the vinyl, and are only moderately visually distracting. For most part, the vinyl looks impeccable, without any MAJOR visual flaws or imperfections. Much of the original luster is intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.
(b) The records are pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!
(c) The records come in the original stock inner sleeves.
(d) Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
(e) Mono copies of this album are NOT known to exist.
· COVER
THE COVER IS ABOUT VERY GOOD (VG).
The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:
- Cover has some visible ring wear; On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and 10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 6
- Cover has two corners slightly worn / dinged / bent.
- Visible shelf wear noted on the seams
- Cover has a few tiny wrinkles along the spine
- Cover has a small, rectangular, sticker residue (small yellowish discoloration from the removed price sticker)
- Cover shows JUST A HINT of yellowing on both sides, apparently from aging.
- Back cover has a few yellowish dust speckles scattered here and there on the inside gatefold
- Back cover has circular tarnish (grayish, dust-covered sections, which closely follow the contour of the record), probably caused by friction or by rubbing against other covers during the storage. The tarnish is similar in appearance to a common ring wear, but, UNLIKE ring wear, these grayish areas may be possible to clean up with a minor effort and with a right cleansing solution.
NO OTHER IMPERFECTIONS ON THE COVER:
- No split seams (yet)
- No cut-out (drill) holes.
- No cut-out corners
- No saw-marks or indents
- No wrinkles or creases
- No yellowing from aging
- No writing
- No stamps
- No peel-off marks
- No stickers or labels
- No water damage
- No razor marks, scratches, pressure marks, lines, streaks, or cuts.
- No warping
- No wax, glue, paint or liquid drops on the cover
- No glue traces or wax residue.
- No bar codes
- No RIAA stamps or stickers.
