CONDITION of RECORD: E-
NOTES: Interesting find for collectors of unusual records or vintage Las Vegas items. The photo of The Hitching Post is not part of auction but shows what chapel used to look like around this time. The labels are starting to come unglued, but record in nice shape.
PACKAGING: I know how to pack 78's. I place the record between 2 cardboard inserts, then wrap with bubble wrap. I use a deeper box and fill with packing peanuts.
GRADES I USE: All 78 grading is visual and very conservative. I use the VJM grading system as follows:
N-. Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
E+. Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
E. Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
E-. Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.
V+. An average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced.
V. Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.
V-. Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level.
G+. Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
G. Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.
