Stamper numbers: 3,8/MMH & 1,9/MMM
Light wear only with some spindle trails and a small stylus scratch on side 1.
Visual: VERY GOOD PLUS
Clean surfaces bearing a few small, light surface marks and some sleeve removal hairlines, but no deep or 'feelable' marks or scratches.
Completely 100% flat on the turntable without dishing or warping.
Audio: VERY GOOD PLUS
Played on good quality equipment all its life, there is very little lessening to the sound quality and no major audible faults.
Besides a light touch of wear on 'She's Leaving Home' the sound is clean and bright without any crackle or groovewear distortion.
There some light background on the run-ins and between tracks but no pops or clicks, jumps or repeats anywhere.
Cover: VERY GOOD PLUS
The front panel retains a high-gloss laminate bearing just one 'thumbnail' but no heavy creases or major wear.
The lower right corner has a small bump but the others and the opening edges have just light storagewear only.
The rear panel displays a few light spine wrinkles and 3 'thumbnails' but no heavy creases or major wear.
The inside of the gatefold is unmarked and 'as new'. The spine is slightly squashed but is clean with all the lettering clear and undamaged.
All seams are strong, unstressed and unsplit.
Strict visual & audible gradings under intense direct light & at volume on high-end audio equipment
