In the Original Uni-Pak Inward Opening Gatefold sleeve with a Bound-In 12 Page Full Color Booklet and No Cutouts, Promo markings or Barcode. On the Yellow / Rainbow Disneyland Labels. This is a First Pressing as indicated by the Matrix / Runout Vinyl markings which read: Matrix / Runout (Runout Side A, Etched): 3822-WW-280 SIDe ONe LBMatrix / Runout (Runout Side B, Etched): 3822 WW 280 SIDe Two Re-1 LB CONDITION The Sleeve is in good shape. There is some fairly slight shelf wear, edge creasing and corner softening/wear. There is a crease in the lower right. There is slight water / spill staining / wrinkling on the upper left corners of the bound-in book, not really anything you would notice if not inspecting. Still very solid with no splits, tears, writing, cutouts, etc. and would rate VG. The Vinyl is in clean Glossy condition looking pretty lightly played. There are some light scuffs, marks and faint hairlines - no actual scratches i.e. something that can be felt with a fingernail. VG visually and plays mostly VG+ or better but with a couple spots of light groove noise and one or two soft tics - might be improved by a better cleaning than I can give with my Discwasher brush. The labels show a couple light spindle trails but are otherwise Near Mint. The book is in nice shape with no real flaws other than that mentioned above.

If you are not familiar with this grading system (or even if you think you are!), please check it out before bidding I have summarized the important (i.e. I think everyone knows what Mint means) points below in Goldmine's words: Very Good Plus (VG+): Record surfaces may show some slight signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK. Very Good (VG): Surface noise will be evident upon playing,... Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as will light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. I stand by my grades but would like us to be on the same page so no problems arise. I have been selling Vintage Vinyl for over twenty years on the net and I can count the returns I've had on one hand so I believe my grading is fair and accurate. One important note, I try to grade to these Goldmine guides as best as I can understand and apply them. This gives us both a written standard to go by rather than having to guess. But.... it also means that I don't issue refunds over differences of opinion in grading i.e. "That's not MY idea of a VG record!" - I don't know what your standards are and, as such, can't grade to them. I guarantee that items I sell will meet my description, nothing more or less! If you are not satisfied that a purchase meets my description, I will do what I can to make it right if you give me the chance and work with me! Please feel free to check my feedback.
