All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if purchased.

This record is in near mint condition. It has only a few very faint spindle marks visible on the labels and there are no pen marks, stains or fading. There is no scuffs anywhere and overall the 'red spot' labels are clean, bright and in very nice condition.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are very clean with a beautiful lustre and nothing at all serious showing in normal light. There is maybe the odd most minor and light wispy line or sleeve mark showing but nothing at all sinister. So overall the record is in really nice condition(especially considering its age) with a lovely lustre and just very minor signs of use.

I play tested the record and it played well throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no arm movement. The audio produced is excellent from start to finish with no distortion caused by excessive use and no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was maybe the most minor trace of surface noise but certainly nothing at all disruptive and overall it was a very enjoyable play test with nice clarity and no serious issues at all. 

The front laminated sleeve is in near mint condition. It has next to no rubbing or wear to the edges and corners with the writing along the spine all legible. There are no splits, and no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There is hardly any creasing with just a small amount to the top of the spine(front top left corner area). There is only very slight ring marks and just a hint of discolouring or age spots to the rear. Overall the sleeve has remained clean and bright and shows just very light age related wear. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original poly-lined inner which is in excellent condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks but has some light discolouring and general signs of age/storage.

The record will be packaged in between cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to try to ensure a swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
