CONDITION Details:

The LP jacket is in near mint minus condition! The jacket has NO seam splits. The corners and seams are solid, with very light shelf wear noticeable at the corners and seams. The colors on the jacket are sharp - in super condition especially since it was made in 1951 (see pictures with this listing as they are of the actual item).

The LP is in near mint minus condition! We found that the vinyl looked excellent on this vintage LP, especially since it's from the 1950s. There are no significant marks and the LP retains much of the original gloss and sheen! There may be some dust and the odd finger print on the vinyl with no serious marks evident, just a few light spider marks (caused by sliding the LP in and out of the inner sleeve - usually these types of marks are not audible, but it really depends on the sensitivity of your audio gear). There are NO serious spindle marks on the record labels either. That said, acquiring a vintage LP like this is for the performance and rarity of the LP, not necessarily for the sound quality. A Short Note About LP GRADING -
  • Mint = Only used for sealed items.
  • Near Mint = Virtually flawless in every way.
  • Near Mint Minus = Item has some minor imperfections, some audible.
  • Excellent = Item obviously played and enjoyed with some noise.
  • Very Good Plus = Many more imperfections which are noticeable and obtrusive.

For best results, always properly clean your LPs before playing them.

The LP is an audiophile quality pressing (any collector of fine MFSL, half speeds, direct to discs, Japanese/UK pressings etc., can attest to the difference a quality pressing can make to an audio system).

Don't let this rarity slip by!!!
