VJM 78 GRADING SCALE

N:As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can

categorically be claimed to be unplayed).

N-:Nearly New, 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 sleeves.

E : Excellent. 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 luster of a new record, few light scratches.

V+ :is 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 : Very Good 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 : Good Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.

G- ; F ; and P The VJM system has these designations for records in extremely poor condition.

Grading

NM (Near Mint): Record and cover appear virtually unmarked.

EX:  Plays just under near mint, may have just a very few visual marks 

VG+ :  Used but not abused. Will likely have some relatively slight audible imperfections.

VG : Many only surface lines or may have a minor scratch .Some background sound but still enjoyable.
