Cover: Garrod & Lofthouse 1st pressing fully laminated mono cover with the inner flip-backs at the top. Excellent. No writings, doodles or seam splits. Light corner/edge and spine wear - see photos.

 

 

Cut-Out Insert: Mint - see photos.

 

 

Flame/Fools Inner Sleeve: Near Excellent - a few small marks/stains but no seam splits - see photos. 

 

 

Vinyl: Play tested. Heavy duty 1st UK pressing vinyl. Looks 

Excellent with a lovely sheen and barely a mark to be seen. Lightly played and well cared for. No skips or jumps. There is some background crackle in places (mainly on the run-in & in some quiet passages) - less of it on Side 2. Playback rates as VG+ on Side 1 and Excellent on Side 2. I played this through twice on both sides to help clear out some of the dust/fluff in the grooves that had built up in the many years since it was last played. Might  benefit from a clean to reduce further any residual static fluff/dust that might be causing some crackle. 

 

 

Labels: Near Mint - no writings, doodles or stickers. Mispressing with extra dot in "SOLD IN.U.K." text on Side 1.

Gradings.......

 

Mint - The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.

Excellent - The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality.

Very Good - The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality despite noticeable surface marks and occasional light scratches.

Good - The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and more significant scratches.

Fair - The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise, it may even jump.

Poor - The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc

Bad - The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
