For sale is a super rare early single by Small Faces front man Steve Marriott 
Give Her My Regards / Imaginary Love 
Matrix: F.11619 Date: 1963 Record Company/Label: Decca 

Condition Notes:
General
This rare record comes in great condition for age. Firstly the sleeve is the original for the record and would grade around VG. There are no pen marks on the sleeve. There are general creases and wear around corners and fraying around opening.  The record has a very slight warp - this can be seen in the video listed above - this does not affect play back but wanted to make it clear.
Side A
Side A has very clean labels, no spindle marks or any form of writing etc.  The record has a few very light marks from being entered and removed from its sleeve - none of which are feelable or made by a needle scratching across the record.  The most notable mark is across the record starting from the Matrix number running across the song - this is very very light and does not affect play at all.  There are maybe 2 other similar marks but are around 2mm in length - again very light and do not affect play back.  The record playback on side A is great - the record starts off with some crackle on the run in however when the song begins this is not noticeable at all. 
Side B
Side B, similar to side A has very clean labels however does have a few spindle marks.  Side B of the record has approx 10 marks, again like side A these are very very light from the sleeve - none are deep made by the needle. There are 3 marks just above the D of Decca which run across the whole record. There are a few other marks just like this around the record playing surface.  Again none of these marks deteriorate the song quality of the record - like side A, the record plays with slight crackle at the beginning on the run in but once the song begins the crackle has gone. 
To summarise, I would grade this record as a conservative VG+ due to the marks however the play back is much better. 
The record I will be packaged in a strong card mailer then pack that into a strong cardboard box with padding to avoid any damage in transit. 
If you require more photographs please message me and I will be happy to help.

Packaging
Singles are packaged between two very thick pieces of cardboard then packaged in postage paper. The singles are very secure between the cardboard with an overlap of roughly 1cm from each corner so your record will arrive safely to your door. 

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask! 

Will be very well packaged for postage.

Thanks for looking! 

RECORD COLLECTORS GRADING SYSTEM
Mint (M)
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 condiition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
Excellent (EX)
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 (VG)
The record has obviously been played many times, but displayes 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 moajor defects is acceptable
Good (G)
Te record has been played so much that the sound quality has notceably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc
Fair (F)
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 (P)
The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing
Bad (B)
The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler
CD’s and CASSETTES
As a general rule CD’s and Cassettes either play perfectly – inwhich case they are in Mint condition – or they don’t, in which case their value is minimal. Cassette tape is liable to deteriorate with age, even if it remains unplayed, so care should be taken when buying old tapes. CD’s are difficult to grade visually; they can look perfect but actually be faulty, while in other cases they may appear damaged but still play perfectly. Cassette and CD inlays and booklets should be graded in the same way as record covers and sleeves. In general, the plastic containers for cassettes and CDs can easily be replaces if they are broken or scratched, but card covers and digipaks are subject to the same wear as record sleeves.
