LP catalog # LPEM 19089
CONDITION Details:
The LP jacket is in Excellent plus condition. The jacket is virtually completely intact, with NO seam splits, and shows only mild shelf wear - primarily the rounding of corners and weakening of seams. The spine of the jacket is beginning to wear. The colors on the front of the jacket are clean, vivid and bold (see picture below for more detail).The LP is in Near Mint minus condition! The vinyl has one light mark on the Saint-Saens side, but this is a superficial scuff which did NOT sound when we played the LP on our audio system. The LP is clean and shiny with perhaps a slight spider mark or two (caused by sliding the LP in and out of the inside record sleeve)! Overall, a lovely and heavy slab of collectors grade vinyl! We spot play graded the LP on our audio system and found it to be in near mint minus condition throughout.
A Short Note About LP GRADING -
Mint = Only used for sealed items.
Near Mint = Virtually flawless in every way.
Near Mint Minus = Item has some minor imperfections, some audible.
Excellent = Item obviously played and enjoyed with some noise.
Very Good Plus = Many more imperfections which are noticeable and obtrusive.
Please understand that this is a vintage LP record - as such, one cannot expect the record to sound like a brand new, audiophile pressing! Some noise is inevitable - for best results, always properly clean your LPs before playing them (even new records).
The LP is an audiophile quality pressing (any collector of fine MFSL, half speeds, direct to discs, Japanese/UK pressings etc., can attest to the difference a quality pressing can make to an audio system).
