What Would You Do with a Sealed, 1st Press Miles Davis "Kind of Blue"?


This LP is still sealed in the original clear plastic inner sleeve (just one tiny 1/8" circular spot of mold on one track).  The LP cover has clearly seen shelf life making it say VG.   I am curious about what would you do please?  Open and play or sell to buy other records or?  All thoughts and suggestions are much appreciated - thank you 😉

Hello,
I would have it “restored” with a Kirmus cleaner. Resleeve in a Mofi sleeve and find another outer storage outer sleeve. Keep everything and play it after you clean your stylus. I can only imagine the experience of listening to that. I have a pristine Dark side of the moon-mofi. I play it every once in a while. If someone wants to buy it let them inspect and listen to it. Please get the mold removed. Take it the the audio show and let DR Kirmus clean it if you do not have the coin to purchase one.

"Yes they were sealed in plastic back then."
Thanks!
If this is a truly sealed album then you need to ask yourself if you want to sell it to make the money. If it does not sell for what you want then open it and have it cleaned and play it. I do not like that it is already has mold and it will be left there because of the monetary value. I also agree with others that if the outside cover is not sealed it is not of a NM grade. Also I have read that albums get warped due to staying in the shrink wrap too long.
