BATTLE OF THE BANDS ~ COLGATE / PALMOLIVE TEETH SOUND SLIDE 10" VINYL 1985 VG+

Description: BATTLE OF THE BANDS ~ COLGATE / PALMOLIVE DENTAL HEALTH INSTRUCTIONAL / EDUCATIONAL ADVERTISING EPUnusual, and rare, 10" vinyl disc, two sides basically the same, with the Colgate company fashioning a story based around The Cavity Fighter Club taking on the nastily-named DK & The Gang...it's toothbrushes at dawn as the two crews throw it down and as far as dental health goes, oh, it's on...It was originally meant as a 'play-along' item for a slide show display, one side is a standard run through, the other side is the same, but with regular 'parps' from a horn of some sort telling the slide show MC, get a move on, change slides...this side is more enjoyable, especially when what sounds like a fully-fledged fist-fight breaks out, with the horn honking throughout...top quality entertainment......and all this with some nicely cheesy '80's Library Music-style Synth Pop playing alongsideDisc grading - VG+4 pictures uploaded, front and rear, disc - apologies for the tripod reflection - and a view of the label details.

I strive to grade fairly, and have never sold a record without listening to it first. Visual grading is not an option at all.This 35 year old 10"" I have graded as being in Very Good+ condition. Both sides play through with no jumping, skipping or any other audio horrors. There are the usual minor hairline surface marks that any disc of this vintage would accumulate over the passage of time, but they are mainly visual and have no real impact on playback. There is the expected low-level and generally non-intrusive surface noise, typically common to any used disc of this vintage, and which shouldn't spoil your authentic listening experience!The labels are in good condition. See close-up pictures uploaded.Any questions, email and I'll help if I can.Rare, unusual item, used, not abused...price includes shipping.Thanks for looking!:o)Buy-it-Now, $18.50 Postage - USA - Free Shipping...nice!Overseas orders welcome * Records are posted in dedicated record mailing boxes with corrugated cardboard stiffeners.GRADING GUIDE. (Goldmine Standard)* Gradings range between - for example - VG, VG+ and VG++. In some cases, for example again, VG- may be used.MINT (M) Absolutely perfect in every way. Often rumored but rarely seen, and if it is not just out of the pressing plant it is unlikely that, personally, I would ever use this grading.NEAR MINT (NM OR M-) A good description of a NM record is ?it looks like it just came from a retail store and it was opened for the first time.? In other words, it?s nearly perfect. NM records are shiny, with no visible defects. Writing, stickers or other markings cannot appear on the label, nor can any ?spindle marks? from someone trying to blindly put the record on the turntable. Major factory defects will be absent. If played, it will do so with no surface noise. NM covers are free of creases, ring wear and seam splits of any kind.VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+) or EXCELLENT (E) A good description of a VG+ record is ?except for a couple minor things, this would be Near Mint.? VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale marks around the center hole, but repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.VG+ covers should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some very minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom, the most vulnerable location. Also, a VG+ cover may have some defacing, such as a cut-out marking. VG++ is a step up from VG+ generally.VERY GOOD (VG) Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ record are more obvious on a VG record. VG records lack most of the original gloss found on factory-fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail. When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible. Minor writing, tape or a sticker can detract from the label. They remain a fine listening experience, just not the same as if it were in better shape.VG covers will have many signs of human handling. Ring wear in the middle or along the edges of the cover where the edge of a record would reside, is obvious, though not overwhelming. Some more creases might be visible. Seam splitting will be more obvious; it may appear on all three sides, though it won?t be obvious upon looking. A small pen or ink mark, or an original price sticker may be noticeable.GOOD (G), GOOD PLUS (G+) or VERY GOOD MINUS (VG?) Good does not mean bad! The record still plays through without skipping, so it can serve as filler until something better comes along. But it has significant surface noise and groove wear, and the label is worn, with significant ring wear, heavy writing, or obvious surface damage to the label. A Good to VG? cover has ring wear, has seam splits obvious on sight and may have even heavier writing.POOR (P) and FAIR (F) Records that have obvious damage, they are cracked, impossibly warped, or skip and/or repeat when an attempt is made to play them.
