The vinyl Is excellent condition with manor paper scuffs, and minimal groove wear from play. Most of the luster remains. I played both sides of the record several times and Both sides play through beautifully with no skips, crackle, or pops. Great tone and clarity from start to finish. The labels are clean. All spines are mostly 70% intact. Still a beautiful cover. Every record we add to the archive or send to our customers extensively cleaned prior to doing so. We endeavor to remove as much dirt as possible from the cover before ultrasonically cleaning the record. Once both these steps are complete, we repackage the restored article in a brand new inner and outer sleeve. We dedicate vast amounts of time and resources to this process to ensure the customer receives the highest standard of service and product.
