DREAM'S THEORY GALLERY

POSTCARDS GRADING

MINT (M) - Perfect "as made" condition. A mint condition card is in pristine condition, with no flaws whatsoever. It looks as if it has just come off the printing press. Clean and clear, vintage cards of this grade are rare.

EXCELLENT (E) - Near mint. Similar to mint but can show slight discoloration with no bends, creases, rounded, or blunt corners. May or may not have postmark, and must have writing and postmark only on the back. A clean, clear image on the picture side.

VERY GOOD+ (VG+) - Barely Noticeable faults Slightly bumped or rounded corners, with no creases or bends. A very collectable card.

VERY GOOD (VG) - Somewhat Noticeable faults. Slightly bumped or rounded corners, with nearly undetectable creases or bends that don't detract from the image on the picture side of the card.

GOOD+ (G+) - Noticeable faults.

GOOD+ has some noticeable flaws, including small creases, bumped corners, and bends. Rarely you may find a pinhole, in combination with any of the other flaws listed above. Still of value for the subject collector.

FAIR (F) - Obvious faults Card is intact, but has excessive soil, stains, creases, writing on front, or other flaws that affect the picture. Could be a scarce card that is difficult to find in any condition.

RECORDS GRADING

M- : Perfect copy, the copy that looks like it was bought yesterday and only have been played a few times or never, also most of the still sealed are graded M-

COPIA PERFETTA, SPESSO ANCHE SIGILLATO OPPURE MAI USATO, AL MASSIMO SUONATO POCHISSIME VOLTE MA SENZA DIFETTI.

EX : This has been played but still a very satisfying copy that would please most collectors. No scratches or coverwear, LP plays without any problem, as good as perfect in fact many dealers M- is what I would call EX

DISCO USATO MA IN ECCELLENTI CONDIZIONI CHE SODDISFANO LA STRAGRANDE MAGGIORANZA DEI COLLEZIONISTI, MOLTI VENDITORI CLASSIFICANO MINT- MOLTI DEI DISCHI CHE IO REPUTO EX o EX+, EX++.

VG++ : This copy has been played and cover has some wear but still a very good copy that should satisfy most people except the MINT hunters and puritans

DISCO E COPERTINA CON QUALCHE SEGNO DI USURA MA ANCORA SODDISFACENTE.

VG+ : This is a played copy, plays with some clicks and background noise. But still the music should be the central part. Cover has ring wear but still not a torn cover or anything.

SEGNI DI USURA PIU' MARCATI E POSSIBILITA' DI RUMORE DI FONDO COMUNQUE NON ECCESSIVO. 

VG : This is a more used copy with some scratches and clicks, no stops or skips though, cover has heavy wear.

COPIA MOLTO USATA, IN GENERE VENDO DISCHI VG SOLO SE SI TRATTA DI RARITA' DIFFICILMENTE REPERIBILI IN QUALSIASI STATO DI CONSERVAZIONE, COMUNQUE NON SALTA O S'INCANTA SE NON SPECIFICATO CHIARAMENTE.
