I've listened to the LP from start to finish. My cartridge is an Ortofon 2M Black on a Music Hall 5/1 turntable. Running through a tube preamp and power amp loaded with cork-sniffer tubes.
The LP is essentially VG. It has some crackles that are, of course, more pronounced in the softer passages like the beginning (and when the "drum solo" starts) of "Saucerful Of Secrets" and "Set The Controls". The crackles tend to disappear in the louder tunes like "Corporal Clegg" and "Let There Be More Light". "Jugband Blues" plays nicely with minimal noise. "Remember A Day" has minimal noise with "See Saw having a little more. Over all the LP crackles the most at the beginning of Saucerful.
The cover is solid showing some wear but no splits or separation. The opening edges are a little soft. Some creases. See pics.
The labels show some spindle marks. See pics.
The original inner sleeve looks good.
So by looking at the Goldmine grading standards, I'd feel good grading this a VG LP with no skips or hang ups in a VG+ sleeve.
Media Mail in THE USA ONLY is $4.00
