While this acetate is in a VERY NICE  state of preservation, we do expect bidders to understand that the aluminum-based, shellac-coated acetates can never be graded by using the exact, same stringent standards used by collectors for modern long-play, hi-fi LPs or singles. The buyer – if not familiar with acetate (reference) recordings - should be cautioned that these discs were intended for brief, limited use only; they were meant to be played only a few times, then discarded or destroyed. In view of this, the surface layer of the disc is manufactured in such a manner that it will wear off pretty quickly, even under normal conditions -- and specially if not handled with due care. Each subsequent playing increases wear and tear of the disc’s surface layer and diminishes the disc’s playability. This disc appears to have been unplayed recently and the grooves are still well-formed and fully visible.

This acetate is in VERY GOOD++ (VG++-) condition, with some superficial but visible   scuffs on the surface . Absolutely NO part of the shellac (surface layer) of the disc is  missing, and the surface layer is NOT dented, chipped, broken or otherwise compromised.  The disc plays beautifully, with only a sporadic light crackling noise (nothing dramatic), and in full frequency and dynamic range and without any distortion whatsoever.  PLEASE NOTE: the acetate lacks intro groove on both sides, which may result in stylus "sitting" impassively on the disc and refusing to move to the groove area. In order to force the disc to play, please position your tonearm as close to the first groove on the groove area.

ON A SCALE FROM 1-10 (where 10 is the best), WE GRADE THIS ACETATE AS  5.1/2

·       SLEEVE : This acetate comes without any custom or picture sleeve and will be shipped in a plain white poly-lined sleeve (not separately graded)
