Title: The Lionel Hampton, Art Tatum, Buddy Rich Trio

DJ/Promotional Copy?: No

Label: Clef Records

Catalog #: MC C-709

This record has been part of my family's collection for decades. The record itself looks to be in very good condition. I can only see a very few scratches or smudges. It includes the inner sleeve.  The jacket has very minimal wear on the edges, and all the seams look good. The jacket is covered with a plastic cover (I have one pic with it on and one with it off).

Grading: VG++

Please note: I try to grade a little lower because I would rather rate it 1 rating under what I feel the grading to be - then you get it and be happy that it's in better shape than you thought - then to over-rate the grading and have you disappointed.

Records are graded using the grading system from Ebay as follows:
Mint    Perfect, flawless. Legitimate sellers seldom use this grade. When a record is truly
Mint, it deserves (and receives) a large premium over other grades.
 
M- or NM (Mint Minus or Near Mint) – Usually the highest grade. Records from the
1950s & 60s in this condition are truly rare.
 
VG++ (Very Good Plus Plus) – Beautiful collectible condition. Only the slightest of
wear, certainly no deep scratches.

VG+ (Very Good Plus) - Great condition. Well cared for.
 
VG (Very Good) – Still good condition, but more wear than VG+.
 
VG- (Very Good Minus) - Generally not collectible condition, unless it’s a super rare
record. Most dealers avoid records in this shape or below.
 
G (Good) – Lots of wear, but still playable. The most confusing grade! Good really does
not mean good. It is actually quite poor condition.

Thank You Very Much!
