This one is NOT and has NO nasty deep scratches, only a few VERY light hairlines, only 2 or 3 light scufflines, and only a few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!!  It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO nasty loud pops, only a few VERY light clicks (though mostly NONE!), NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - though this is generally lost WAY behind ALL but the VERY quietest parts of the music ONLY!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Good+ (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Patents Applied For' inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The 1st Press 'E.J.Day' Flipback Laminated MONO Cover is in GREAT condition overall - with NO major defects AT ALL!!!!  The cover has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only some very VERY faint discolouration at the VERY bottom of the cover front, NO rips, NO tears, NO splits, a few light creases (cover is still VERY flat looking!), VERY shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in GREAT condition overall with NO yellowing, only a TINY touch of wear in the EXTREME top left corner, NO grubbyness, NO rubbing, only some minor discolouration to parts of the bottom flipback, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must MEGA STRICTLY grade Good++++ (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still VERY presentable with NO major defects AT ALL!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
