The Relics & Curios
Record Rack - H

Record Grading Scale: I use the following grading scale to indicate the quality of the records and sleeves:

1. Excellent Records:
   1. M = Mint (pefect)
      
   2. M- = Mint minus (near perfect)
      
   3. VG+ = Very Good plus (a very nice copy with only minimal wear or minor surface noise)

2. Very Good Records:
   1. VG = Very Good (well played over the years, with noticable audio or visual wear)
      
   2. VG- = Very Good minus (significant audio or visual wear)

3. Below Average Records:
   1. G = Good (plays but with serious flaws)
