Description

Black Sabbath 'Master Of Reality' US - 1971 1st Pressing

Matrix Side 1) BS-2562 39928-1 (Artisan Logo) Side 2) BS-2562 39929-1 (Artisan Logo)
Vinyl Play Back: NM- Terrific playing copy. The occasional quick passive tic.  Audio Play Grade is a solid: 9+/10
Cover: NM- Still in shrink. The embossed cover is nearly perfect.  The spine is straight with the text fully legible. Residual shrink is seen under the wrap.  This occurred during manufacture and does not impact the cover in any way. No other issues of concern are seen.  The cover is gorgeous.
Vinyl Visual: EX+ ~ NM- Some minor superficial spider lines. No scratches. In normal room lighting it appears near mint.
Labels: NM Perfectly clean.  No spindle lines are seen.
Original Inner: EX+ Clean and flat, w/neat side seam splits.
Poster: EX+ ~ NM- No tears. Shows minuscule signs of aging if at all.
INV: 194
Additional photos are available upon request. Returns are accepted up to 10 days after delivery. Thank you for looking!
Grading endeavors to be conservative. (Please see below for grading scale)
All open vinyl is shipped in a new poly-inner, and the album cover in a poly-sleeve.
Vinyl is cleaned on a VPI 16.5 machine and test played 'start-to-finish' prior to listing, unless otherwise noted.
'Vinyl Playback' will always address egregious audible concerns.   If you encounter any issues with your purchase, please contact me prior to leaving negative or neutral feedback.
My goal is your 100% complete satisfaction.

Vinyl Play Grades
M: Still sealed
M-: An opened item that appears 'M'. Virtually perfect playback.
NM: A few minor visual imperfections with virtually no audible impact. Top quality play.
EX: A few more surface marks than NM with very few audible imperfections. Quality play.
VG+: Surface scuffs and lines. Some light surface noise or a few tics or pops. Enjoyable play.
VG: Defined scuffs, lines, and scratches. More surface noise, tics, and pops than VG+. Acceptible play.
G: Heavy wear, deep scratches, with egregious surface noise, clicks, and pops. Poor play.
Hybrid Example:    Vinyl which is VG in appearance but plays NM. = Visual Grade: VG  Playback Grade: NM
The reverse may also occur.  = Visual Grade: NM  Playgrade: VG
Album covers are graded on a case by case basis given the myriad of issues which may impact each.
All grading is completely subjective and provided to the best of my ability.
