Label: Verve Records V-5008 Mono
Year: 1967
Condition:
Vinyl: VG
Notes: Overall, the record is in decent shape with only a few minor surface marks and abrasions, but mostly light and superficial. Side one, track two has one small visible scratch that surprisingly plays clean, and side two has a superficial scuff, but again it played clean on my turntable, with only minor surface noise here and there, typical of lp s from this era.
The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.
Cover: VG
Notes: The original banana sticker has obvious signs of being partially peeled and reapplied at some point, but is intact with a crease / split near the top.
The cover overall has some minor wear, staining and discoloration, with slight flaking along the edges and corners.
The top seams / corners have general flaking and corner wear, with a partial 3.5 split on the top back right gatefold, and minor split of the bottom center edge.
