IGGY & THE STOOGES 'Raw Power' 
A super copy - Fully play graded - 13 photos below

UK FIRST PRESS ON CBS; S 65586
ORANGE LABELS; A1 / B1 MATRIX
 FIRST PRESS SLEEVE WITH NO NAME TO THE FRONT
COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL PRINTED INNER SLEEVE
*FULL RELEASE DETAILS CAN BE FOUND BELOW THE PHOTO GALLERY
CONDITION REPORT & PHOTO GALLERY AUDIO VERY GOOD(+); this has been completely play graded from start to finish at volume and both sides played through really nicely. The clarity of the audio was great throughout; bright and crisp without a hint of distortion.
There was some light crackle in places which was, on the whole, only noticeable between tracks and in the run-ins of tracks. Very occasional isolated pops/clicks. 
Nice audio throughout; sounded really nice.
VINYL (VISUAL): VERY GOOD; the vinyl retains a nice shine but is covered in light hairlines. Looks reasonable. 
LABELS: Both look great; bright and clean with just the very lightest of spindle marks and a mild touch of wear to the spindle hole. No scuffs, tears or writing.
SLEEVE: VERY GOOD(+); the sleeve is a nice example with the only real flaw being some strange marks/nicks to the front across Iggy's chest and arms (see close up photo below). I really have no idea what has caused this. Otherwise just very minor wear; the spine is firm and straight with all text still clearly legible. Looks nice overall.
INNER: EX/EXCELLENT(-); the fragile inner is very prone to wear, but this one is a nice example. Some light creasing and ring indentations but no splits or tears. Looks really good.

GRADING

Unless otherwise stated, all of my records have been play tested before listing using a Rega P3-24 turntable with Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge & stylus. I describe honestly and accurately but please bear in mind that I am only human and such things are always subjective. I tend to grade records conservatively and believe that my feedback speaks for itself. 

 Please take confidence from the fact that I have been a collector myself for over 20 years (please check my feedback as a buyer) and know only too well how disappointing it is to receive an inaccurately described record.

I also grade visually using a strong halogen lamp.

I use the Record Collector grading system as shown below.

POSTAGE / SHIPPING

I post worldwide and pack all records in custom made (stiff) card mailers and add extra packaging inside to ensure a safe delivery. I will provide a protective polythene sleeve and the record and inner will be removed from the outer sleeve to prevent seam splits in transit. I want your record to get to you in the condition that it was when it left me.

For any records that come with printed inner sleeves, I will also provide an additional plain inner.

As a general rule, shipping will be discounted ie. I lose money on the costs of buying my packaging. I do not profit from this; please remember that my costs are not simply those shown on the stamp!

Please send me a message if anything is unclear and I will be happy to help.

RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

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