Planet of the Apes (Soundtrack) 1963 ORIGINAL (EXCELLENT) LP

Label: Project 3

Released: 1968

Format:  33rpm

Catalog #: PR-5023 SD

Cover Sleeve: (Excellent)

Record: (Excellent)

Description:  This is an original Stereo release.

The gatefold cover is in great shape with only a few dings but the color, shine and internal images of the gatefold are in great condition. 

The LP plays very well.  Between the 3rd and 4th song there is a vinyl nick that causes 2-3 pops between songs and 1 pop and extremely light surface noise at the start of song 3.  The nick is well placed and causes very little interference.  If not for this one record flaw, the LP would be close to NM-.  The record plays extremely well, even with the pops between these two songs.

Aside from the grading (scale below) I'll provide additional notes for each record, as necessary (see above).

Feel free to send me an email if you have any questions.

Grading:

NM Record: I rarely use this grade.  If I grade a record NM, it will be near mint!

NM Cover: I rarely, if ever, grade a record cover as NM since almost every cover has some type of wear to it.  If I grade a cover as NM, it'll be in fantastic shape!

NM- Record: A near mint minus (NM-) record looks brand new and has no visual or sound/playing issues unless otherwise noted.  The labels, vinyl and sound will be in great condition!

NM- Cover: A NM- cover will look practically brand new with a few exceptions including very lite bending near the opening and a few minor stress lines.

VG++ or Excellent Record: A VG++ record will play extremely well.  It will have great labels, a good center hole, high gloss and great overall sound.  It may have a small number of visual scratches and/or blemishes or minimal surface noise that is extraordinarily faint and/or intermittent.   

VG++ or Excellent Cover: A cover with VG++ is generally in overall great condition.  Some elements that might be included in this description are lite general wear such as seam and corner wear or extremely lite record impression on the cover.  This might also include a couple of tiny stress lines, minor bends and folds and general overall ageing. 

VG+ Record: A record graded VG+ still plays well enough to enjoy the overall sound of the music.  It could include issues such as lite to medium surface noise that can, at times, interfere with the music but doesn't significantly overwhelm the record as a whole. It could also include lite to intermittent surface noise, have visible surface scratches and lite general wear but will not have any skipping. This may also include slight imperfections in gloss, a number of surface scratches and possibly a slight warp.

VG+ Cover: A record cover graded VG+ may include seam splits, loss of color, cover scratches, stains, significant record impressions, writing on the cover (front or back) and significant bends/folds to the cover.  That said, the front cover is still in generally good shape and can serve as the record holder.

*I’m not a professional grader, but I buy and sell a lot of records and try to be conservative in my grading. Unless sealed, I listen to all the records I sell before grading them.
