🎧 Condition

Vinyl – VG

Strong gloss with light surface scuffs and paper hairlines under bright light. Labels are clean with minimal spindle marks. Play‑tested: warm, punchy 1967 analog sound. Expect light background crackle in quiet sections — typical for this pressing.

Note scratch as in picture - this does not affect playback at all (tested)

Gatefold Sleeve – VG+

Original late‑1969 Garrod & Lofthouse “Patents Pending” flip-back gatefold. Front cover is vibrant with great laminate shine. Corners show mild wear and the rear red panel has light ring wear. Seams remain fully intact.

Inner Sleeve – VG

Period‑correct plain white patent‑stamped inner. Shows creasing, handling wear, and age‑related yellowing. (Cut‑out insert and poster are not included.)

📦 Shipping

Packed professionally in a heavy‑duty mailer with stiffeners. Vinyl shipped outside the gatefold to prevent seam splits. Tracked delivery included.
