Cover: Excellent
Great example, - Light wear only (See Pictures)
The front panel is vibrant and unfaded with a clean, unrubbed/unscratched high-gloss laminate
A single small 'thumbnail' and spine wrinkle are the only traces of wear visible
All corners from the front are sharp, square and unbumped and both opening edges are unworn
The rear panel is just as glossy as the front with a smaller 'thumbnail' wrinkle and a few light scratches from storage
There is a tiny bruise to the rear lower left corner, but all others are in great shape.
Both panels inside the gatefold are pristine
All seams of both pockets are smooth & unstressed
The spine is clean (See Picture)
A final upgrade for your collection
Inner-sleeve: Very Good - (See Picture)
