All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if purchased.

This record is in near mint condition. It has no damage to the labels with all text legible and no pen marks or scuffing. There is just one 1cm spindle mark on the label of side 1, with none showing on side 2. There is little to no wear to the centre holes and overall the labels are in superb condition.

As for the vinyl itself both sides are beautifully clean, have a vivid lustre and show next to nothing in normal light. There is still little evident when viewed under bright light with just a few of the most minor wispy lines showing. Overall both sides have little evident and are in wonderful, rarely played condition.

I carefully play tested the record(on a revealing good quality system) and it played really well. It produces audio of A1 quality on both sides, with even the run in/out near silent. There was nothing audible that should not be there on either side, with even the slightly more mellow intro to side 2 playing with excellent clarity. Overall it produces near mint audio on both sides with no unwanted interference whatsoever.

The only thing to mention as far as the record goes is that it plays with the most minor fractional raise or 'bob' to the record arm. This is far, far from major or extreme however. It lays flat on the deck, but upon playing it has the most slight amount of upward movement on both sides. I can supply a video of this if required, but it is again very slight. Other than most minor and slight raise it plays superbly with top audio as mentioned.

The sleeve is in excellent condition. It has no splits, scuffs or pen marks and is clean and bright. It does have incredibly faint ring marks showing however and also a few things to mention. It has a little creasing and a faint line to the front top right corner(see pics). It also has two small 'dings' to the edges and light rubbing all round. As for the 'dings' there is one on the rear top edge(just right of centre) and another 2" up from the rear left corner. There is also light creasing around the second of these.

Overall the sleeve is excellent with no major issues but it does have the slight signs of age and two small dings as mentioned.

It also includes its original plain white inner which is in excellent condition with no splits, tears or pen marks and just light signs of age/storage.

It will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement sleeve however to protect the original from any unwanted issues. 

It will also come with a brand new plastic outer sleeve, and will sent within 24hrs of receiving payment to try to ensure a swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.

Many thanks for looking.
