SEE LAST FRAME OF PHOTO GALLERY FOR TRACK TIMES, CREDITS, ANY MATRIX RUNOUTS OR OTHER IDENTIFIERS.

ORIGINAL PICTURE SLEEVE EX:  Original semi-glossy paper "picture" sleeve is in VG+ to EX condition. No side or bottom edge splits.  Mouth edge has normal light wear, but no rips or tears, and only some very minor wrinkling.  No graffiti, very light wear along the edges, and minor bent corners (no nasty creases).  Virtually no ring/shelf wear on either side.  Not a lot of negatives to declare, but the sleeve just has some light roughness about it in spots.  Very nice shape for being almost 50 years old.

LABELS EX:  Both labels are in fantastic shape overall, just not quite perfect.  No ring/shelf wear noticeable, no scratches or graffiti on either side.  Background and foreground color is brilliant, and quite bold.  Near zero wear around the spindle hole.  A little bit of rub wear on the "B" side, but very minor.  All aspects of the labels are in very nice condition.

VINYL RECORD NM:  The vinyl is still very shiny on both sides, with little evidence of any wear. Both sides sound terrific, and there are no noise issues on either side.  Both sides are scratch free with no scuffs or marks.  The visual appearance is beautiful, almost perfect.  Vinyl is not quite mint, condition wise, but its extremely clean.  It plays back nicely with no skips or hangs, and has no noise issues.

BOTH SIDES OF THIS 45 WERE GRADED AUDIBLY,  "LOUD" IN STEREO MODE SO THAT ANY AND ALL NOISE COULD BE DOCUMENTED FOR THIS DESCRIPTION.  NO HEADPHONES GRADING!

SIDE "A" Try It:  Near zero noise in the lead in groove area.  Excellent overall sound and separation. No surface noise noticeable during the track.  Very light to near zero noise in the dead wax trail off area.  I gave side "A" an "A-" audibly.  Great sound, and very clean, almost perfect.

SIDE "B" Poor Shell Of A Man:  Zero noise in the lead in groove area.  Again, very nice overall sound.  No noise or popping during track play, but a tiny bit of "wear noise" on a few occasions throughout the track.  This noise is almost inaudible and a very minor issue.  Very light to near zero noise in the dead wax trail off area.  Nothing during playback to warrant any kind of a downgrade beneath side one.  Not perfect, but clean enough that I gave side "B" an "A-" grade audibly also.

SUMMARY:  The picture sleeve has a few minor rough spots as described above, but the vinyl is squeaky clean, and has near zero noise issues during tracks play on both sides. The record is, "in my opinion", easily qualified for re-recording to another audio medium.  The record has virtually no visible wear and is still very shiny in appearance.  This record package has been well cared for overall, and is a one owner.

Questions regarding this record will be answered honestly and as promptly as possible.

I am not a dealer, nor will I pretend to be an expert on grading records. I'm just a guy that's been buying and collecting records for over 50 years. I use Goldmines price guide as a tool when either buying or selling an album or 45. My listing procedure is: to clean the record (if necessary), visually inspect record and album cover for obvious imperfections, and to play each record in its entirety to check for sound quality. I try to simply give my honest opinion of the record's condition without the technical gobbledygook. I believe that grading a record can be as subjective as judging Olympic figure skating, therefore, my opinion may well differ from yours as a prospective buyer, either in a positive or in a negative way. I simply offer a full money back guarantee + shipping cost on any record that I sell, if you are not 100% satisfied with the purchase. I do not want negative feedback in the event that I overlook an egregious flaw or if my opinion of the record is beneath the buyer's expectations. If you are the end buyer and are dissatisfied in any way, please contact me immediately and return the record in the condition you received it within 10 days of the purchase date. I ship same or next business day after payment is received. All records with a purchase price of $25.00 or more will be insured (included in the shipping price).  Records are shipped in custom fitted record shipping cartons with protective plastic covering.

Please do not ask me to discount shipping on single item purchases. In order to get buyers their items as quickly as possible, I ship same or next business day upon confirmation of receipt of payment. I live out in the sticks. It is 17 miles round trip to the nearest mailing center and my old truck gets crummy mileage, so I must consider fuel when calculating shipping costs. Multiple items purchases will be bundled and a discounted shipping fee negotiated, based on type(s) of items purchased. Thanks for your consideration.

 INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE NOTE: Import duties, taxes and charges are NOT INCLUDED in this item's price or shipping charges. Also, law prohibits devaluing the actual purchase price, and/or stating that this item is a "Gift".
