VISUALLY, THE 53 YEAR OLD THICK VINYL PLATTER IS IN NRMT- TO NRMT CONDITION!

I HAVE EXAMINED THIS UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT AND SEE THAT THE  THICK RARE PLATTER  HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS DEEP RICH ORIGINAL LUSTER! LOOKS AS IF IT WAS HARDLY PLAYED AT ALL! I DO SEE SOME EXTREMELY LIGHT  PAPER SCUFFS NONE OF WHICH WERE EVEN CLOSE TO BEING FEEL-ABLE. NOR DID THEY EFFECT THE INCREDIBLE LISTENING EXPERIENCE!

THE LABELS ARE FREE OF ANY WRITING OR STICKERS, PRESENT VERY NICELY AND GRADE NRMT- WITH LITTLE TO NO VISIBLE SIGNS OF WEAR!

OVERALL I GRADE THE VINYL AS NRMT-!

THE COVER PRESENTS DECENTLY! THERE IS NO WRITING OR STICKERS ANYWHERE! THERE WERE UPPER & LOWER SEAM REPAIRS DONE A VERY LONG TIME AGO BY A PREVIOUS OWNER TO PROTECT THIS VALUABLE BABY. MOST OF THE OLD TAPE HAS SINCE BEEN REMOVED BUT SOME EVIDENCE REMAINS, MOSTLY ON THE REVERSE SIDE WHERE YOU CAN SEE THE TAPE WAS PEELED OFF THE SLICK. THE SEAMS WERE THEN VERY NICELY REPAIRED WITH SUPER CLEAR TAPE THAT IS HARDLY NOTICEABLE TO PROTECT THIS VALUABLE BABY. 

THERE IS SOME EVIDENCE OF  RING/SHELF WEAR MOSTLY TO JUST THE FRONT SIDE. THE REVERSE SIDE LINER NOTES ARE INFORMATIVE & TOTALLY READABLE. THE SPINE IS HEAVILY WORN.

THERE ARE SOME MINOR DINGS/CREASES/SCUFFS & SOILING AS SHOWN.

BASED ON THE ABOVE IMPERFECTIONS THE COVER GRADES VG- TO VG BUT STILL PRESENTS  PROUDLY!

I HAVE  PLAY GRADED THIS MOMENTS AGO AND THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE WAS  OUTSTANDING! YOU HAVE TO LISTEN VERY VERY CLOSELY, TO EVEN FIND SOME EXTREMELY MINOR SURFACE NOISE UNDERNEATH THE MUSIC HERE AND THERE. CERTAINLY NOTHING I WOULD SAY WAS  DISTRACTING OR OVERPOWERING IN ANY WAY!

OVERALL THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE GRADES NRMT!

CONSIDERING ALL OF THE ABOVE I GIVE THIS LP AN OVERALL GRADE OF EX+

ALL RECORDS ARE VISUALLY INSPECTED UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. I TRY TO PLAY GRADE WHEN POSSIBLE OR AT LEAST IN ANY AREAS IDENTIFIED AS QUESTIONABLE FROM THE VISUAL INSPECTION.

MINT

Mint records are in most cases sealed in original shrink wrap. The only wear permissible is to the shrink wrap itself.

NEAR-MINT

NM records have glossy vinyl. There are no visible defects such as writing, tape, or stickers on the labels. The labels should not contain any spindle marks(from someone blindly trying to put the record on the turntable) The vinyl may have a few extremely fine hairline scratches or light scuffs that do not affect the sound quality. The vinyl will "appear" to have been unplayed (It may very well have been played and well-cared for)The album cover will haveNO writing, tape, creases, folds, seam splits,stains, ring wear or Promo holes or cuts!

VG+(EXCELLENT)

VG+records have glossy vinyl. Slight signs of wear, including light scuffs, very light scratches or slight warping that does not seriously affect the listening experience is permissible. Very slight intermittent background noise mostly in the quiet passages is acceptable.

The album cover will have no more than three of the following imperfections: light writing such as initials or name in one area, minor creasing, seam splitsnot larger than 1". Neatly taped seams of 2" or less.It may also contain very slight ring wear or discoloration, a promo stamp, punch hole or cut-out as originally sold.

VG

VG Records have more obvious flaws such as more pronounced scratches & lack of gloss. Groove wear and scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail are common. When played there will be surface noise but it should not continuously overpower the music. There areNO skips permissible with no more than 1.5 grahams of tracking force. It is common to hear crackling and pops especially in the quiet passages. The labels may contain writing such as a persons name or initials or it may contain a piece of tape or sticker with or without writing. The cover may have some seam splits, writing, tape, stickers, ring wear and scuffs.

VG-

VG- All of the defects listed VG category would be more pronounced. The record will play through without skipping WITH tracking force. A quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of tracking force are permissible. The record will have many obvious flaws but still enjoyable to listen to. Generally if the record is rare, it is still highly collectible.

G+

Good (G), Good Plus (G+) Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping WITH tracking force. A quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of tracking force are permissible. It will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white). A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.
