VINYL IN VG/VG CONDITION
Following close inspection of the vinyl, there are some light surface marks small number of light scratches light whispy fine hairlines visible - no deep scratches - Have checked vinyl under a bright light
There were no skips, jumps, or sticks, but there were some periodic background surface noise/low level clicks, plus occasional higher in volume pops more noticeable in between tracks during quiet passages
In general, when the vinyl was played, the background noise did not overwhelm the music - and did not ruin the listening experience. Only during quiet passages.
Side 3 looks like it has only been played once or twice - but there was periodic background surface noise
Sound quality is excellent no deterioration in sound quality - Superb audio
Record labels are in superb condition with the print clearly visible and the artwork in wonderful condition.
No writing on the record label
No sticky residue or discoloration.
Except for light trace of spidermarks light spindle wear.
FULLY LAMINATED NUDE SLEEVE IN VG / EXCELLENT CONDITION
The sleeve has general storage wear from rubbing handling etc i.e the sleeve has blisters wear on/near the edges
light record ring wear
No seam splits or tears.
Inside of gatefold has less blisters
Sleeve has lasted very well - In nice condition for its age.
If you excluded the blisters, which are almost inavoidable due to natural age-related wear - the sleeve would be in excellent condition
