Cover: EXCELLENT
Due to its matt black finish, this cover is impossible to find in anything approaching this kind of condition. Carefully stored all its life, this exceptional example bears just the lightest touch of storage but is the best we have seen by a long way. The front panel has a very faint disc impression and a light bend towards the upper right corner around the edge of the disc but apart from that, there is precious little to fault. There are no thumbnail wrinkles front or rear and all corners are free from any heavy bumps or bruising. All of the delicate gold text is clean unworn on the rear panel, which appears as new . Both seams are unstressed and the spine text is clear and unworn. You won t find a better example.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT
Slight natural age-toning but no writing, tears or seams splits.
Poster: MINT
Factory folded unhung.
