The record plays with minimal surface noise and sometimes none. The label looks very close to new - nice. The sleeve has the usual wrinkling/bending, and a little light tearing/scuffing along the top edge. and lightly along the other edges. Someone wrote a green “X” on the sleeve. But it’s the record matters here, not so much the sleeve.

Opened and played, but perfect or very close in all details.NM- (Near Mint Minus): A few minor flaws with just occasional light scuffing, with occasional minor surface noise - nothing that detracts.VG+ (Very Good Plus): Sounds and looks like it was taken care of. May have light scuffing or very light scratches that are typical of older records. Will have minor surface noise.VG (Very Good): Noticeable surface noise is evident, especially in softer passages and during the song’s introduction and fade out. Groove wear starts to be noticeable as do light and occasionally moderate scratches. There is perhaps some slight warping and/or dulling of the surface or minor staining. No skipping or jump-backs.VG- (Very Good Minus): In worse shape than VG, better than G+. Has noticeable problems.G+ (Good Plus): Significant surface noise and scratching. Visible groove wear. Perhaps some warping that doesn’t affect play. Some dulling. No skipping or jump-backs.G (Good): Some of the above are noticeably worse. If it has scratches, they are more pronounced. May have a very occasional skip or jump-back.F/P (Fair/Poor): I would only sell (vs. throw away) a record with this grading if it were rare or highly unusual to the point that someone might want it purely as a “filler”. All of the above areas of concern are present and noticeable. Has irritating skips/jump-backs and/or terrible noise. Labels: M (Mint): Appears to be factory fresh.

Has noticeable problems.G+ (Good Plus): Has scratches or scrapes, pronounced fading, perhaps some discoloration. Center hole may be a little out of round.G (Good): Some of the above are noticeably worse. Barely readable and/or unreadable in places.F/P: (Fair/Poor): For a label to be worse than what is described above in the “G” listings, the vinyl/shellac would inevitably in terrible condition as well.
