CONDITION
RECORD IS VERY NEAR MINT, AND IS PLAYED ONCE SINCE PURCHASE IN 1973
LOVELY WITH A DEEP GLOSSY LIKE NEW RAINBOW SHEEN TO THE VINYL SURFACES WHICH ARE CLEAN AND BRIGHT. OBVIOUSLY NEVER PLAYED IN THE LAST 50 YEARS, STUNNING SHOP FRESH CONDITION
BEING ULTRA CRITICAL I CAN SEE ONE TINY VERY FEINT SLEEVE REMOVAL MARK ,ON SIDE1 TRACK 1, APPROX 5MM LONG, NOT FEELABLE, VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE ONLY WHEN VINYL IS TILTED, UNDER A STRONG LIGHT SEE PICS
CENTRE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION SEE PICS WITH ZERO SPINDLE TRAILS, CONFIRMING SINGLE PLAY IN 50 YEARS I HAVE OTHER COPIES I PLAYED INSTEAD STUNNING CONDITION SHOP FRESH LOOKING
THEREFORE OBVIOUSLY , A GREAT AUDIO EXPERIENCE IS TO BE EXPECTED
THE OUTER GATE FOLD SLEEVE IS GRADED VG TO EXCELLENT
NO SPLITS, NASTY WRITING ETC BUT A LITTLE AGE RELATED MARKS MAY CLEAN OFF ? ON REAR MAINLY, FULLY LEGIBLE UNWORN SPINE, A LITTLE CORNER RUB, PERFECT INSIDE GATEFOLD THOUGH, A NICE EXAMPLE
THE INNER LYRIC SLEEVE IS ALSO NEAR MINT LOVELY CONDITION DUE TO ONLY LEAVING THE OUTER SLEEVE ON VERY FEW OCCASSIONS
A REALLY LOVELY IMMACULATE RECORD RARE IN THIS CONDITION EXAMPLE SEE ALL PICS
