Media: Very Good Plus (VG++) vinyl in excellent condition - a few strayed hairlines and does not impact on the quality of play by the least - the record sounds/plays really well - faint surface noise is only audible during the quitetest moments and does not detract from the listenening experience. A great copy of this classic - clean labelsA nearly perfect record. The record should show no obvious signs of wear.

Sleeve: Good Plus (G+) gatefold sleeve in relatively good condition -  laminated front/back - visible staining on the front face - see blue pointers indicating the area of concern. Despite this the sleeve is well intact and the quality of the paper of the paper has not deteriorated - the two gates became stuck due to moist causing serious paper tearing to become unstuck again - see images provided - some discolouration due to ageas can be seen from the images provided - "1968" graffiti partially removed by myself - image may be provided on request.
