THE BOARDWALK"
LP!
PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE THIS ITEM IF YOU CAN NOT

PLAY GRADE!!!
THANK
YOU!!!
CHECK OUT THE
SONG LIST BELOW TO SEE THE INCREDIBLE COLLECTION OF
ROCKIN' TUNES! THIS LP WILL REALLY GET YOUR FEET TAPPIN'
AND YOUR HEAD BOPPIN'
THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1964 1ST TAIWAN
PRESSING! THIS WAS RECORDED IN STEREO ON
THE LARGE WORLD BLACK LABEL WITH SILVER
PRINTING # LW-255
THESE ARE BECOMING EXTREMELY SCARCE AND
SURE TO RISE IN VALUE!
VISUALLY, THE 49 YEAR
OLD THICK VINYL PLATTER IS IN EX- TO
EX CONDITION!
I HAVE EXAMINED THIS UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT
AND DO SEE SOME LIGHT SCUFFS/HAIRLINES/SCRATCHES (MOSTLY THE SWIRLY
VARIETY) WITH A SMALL PORTION OF 1 BEING JUST
BARELY FEEL-ABLE. HOWEVER, NONE OF THEM ARE DEEP ENOUGH TO BE
SERIOUSLY EFFECT THE LISTENING
EXPERIENCE
THE
LABELS
SHOW VERY LITTLE WEAR AND ARE FREE FROM ANY
WRITING OR STICKERS! THERE IS A FEW SCRAPES ON SIDE 2.
THEREFORE THE LABELS GRADE
EX-
BASED ON THE ABOVE I FEEL
THE VINYL GRADES AS EX-
THE COVER PRESENTS DECENTLY. THERE
IS NO SPLITTING,WRITING OR STICKERS ANYWHERE! THIS IS A THIN
PAPER SLEEVE THAT IS UNCASED IN ORIGINAL
PLASTIC INSIDE & OUT! MOST OF THE MARKS/TINY HOLES/TEARS
YOU SEE ARE IN THE PLASTIC NOT THE ACTUAL PAPER SLEEVE.THERE
ARE SOME DINGS/CREASES/SOILING/STAINING AS SHOWN.
THE
REVERSE SIDE LINER NOTES ARE VERY INFORMATIVE AND PERFECTLY
READABLE. &
CLEAN BASED ON THE ABOVE
IMPERFECTIONS I FEEL THAT THE COVER GRADES AS
EX-
I
HAVE PLAY GRADED THIS MOMENTS AGO AND THE LISTENING
EXPERIENCE WAS VERY GOOD DESPITE SOME MINOR
BACKGROUND NOISE.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE TAIWAN PRESSINGS WERE NOT KNOW FOR BEING OF VERY
HIGH QUALITY. EVEN IF THE VINYL IS NRMT THE SOUND QUALITY IS
FAR FROM AN AMERICAN PRESSING. REGARDLESS OF THE QUALITY OF
THE VINYL YOU MORE THAN LIKELY WILL HEAR SOME
CRACKLE/HISS/TICS IN MOST ALL OF THESE TAIWAN PRESSINGS! BUT
THEY ARE EXTREMELY
RARE!
THAT SAID, THERE NO WERE
SKIPS, STICKS, REPEATS OR LOUD DISTRACTING POPS OR
BURPS! THERE WAS SOME MINOR CRACKLE AND LIGHT TICKS
OCCASIONALLY HEARD MORE EVIDENT IN-BETWEEN SONGS.
OVERALL THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE WAS VERY MUCH ENJOYABLE AND I
GRADE IT AS VG TO
EX-
OVERALL
CONSIDERING ALL OF THE ABOVE I FEEL THIS LP DESERVES A GRADE

ALL
RECORDS ARE VISUALLY INSPECTED UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. I TRY TO
PLAY GRADE WHEN POSSIBLE OR AT LEAST IN ANY AREAS IDENTIFIED
AS QUESTIONABLE FROM THE VISUAL
INSPECTION.
MINT
Mint
records are in most cases sealed in original shrink wrap. The
only wear permissible is to the shrink wrap
itself.
NEAR-MINT
NM records
have glossy vinyl. There are no visible defects such as
writing, tape, or stickers on the labels. The labels should
not contain any spindle marks (from someone blindly
trying to put the record on the turntable) The vinyl may have
a few extremely fine hairline scratches or light scuffs that
do not affect the sound quality. The vinyl will "appear" to
have been unplayed (It may very well have been played and
well-cared for) The album cover will have NO
writing, tape, creases, folds, seam splits ,stains, ring
wear or Promo holes or
cuts!
VG+ (EXCELLENT)
VG+ records have glossy vinyl.
Slight signs of wear,
including light scuffs, very light scratches or slight warping
that does not seriously affect the listening experience
is permissible. Very slight intermittent background noise
mostly in the quiet passages is
acceptable.
The album
cover will have no more than three of the following
imperfections: light writing such as initials or name in one
area, minor creasing, seam splits not larger than
1". Neatly taped seams of 2" or less. It may also
contain very slight ring wear or discoloration, a promo stamp,
punch hole or cut-out as originally
sold.
VG
VG Records have more obvious flaws such as
more pronounced scratches & lack of gloss. Groove wear and
scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail are common.
When played there will be surface noise but it should not
continuously overpower the music. There are NO skips
permissible with no more than 1.5 grahams of tracking force.
It is common to hear crackling and pops especially
in the quiet passages. The labels may contain writing such as
a persons name or initials or it may contain a piece of tape
or sticker with or without writing. The cover may have some
seam splits, writing, tape, stickers, ring wear and
scuffs.
VG-
VG-
All of the defects listed VG category would be more
pronounced. The record will play through without skipping WITH
tracking
force. A quick skip or two with no more that 2.5 grahams of
tracking force are permissible. The record will have many
obvious flaws but still enjoyable to listen to. Generally if
the record is rare, it is still highly
collectible.
G/G+
Good
(G), Good Plus (G+) Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good
or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will
play through without skipping WITH tracking force. A quick skip or
two with no more that 2.5 grahams of tracking force are
permissible. It will have significant surface noise and
scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the
groove will be starting to turn white). A cover or sleeve will
have seam splits, especially
at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or
other defects will start to overwhelm the
object.
