Condition Breakdown:

•Vinyl Discs: NEAR MINT (NM). Both records are in stunning, beautiful condition. Exceptionally shiny, unmarred, and look essentially unplayed. Pristine audio playback surfaces.

•Sleeve (Jacket): Very Good (VG) (VG+) . The gatefold jacket shows some standard, authentic shelf wear, edge whitening, and a bit of corner scuffing/creasing as clearly detailed in the photos. It remains entirely sturdy, structurally sound, and clean.

• Inner Sleeves: NEAR MINT (NM). Both original printed inner lyric/artwork sleeves are in beautiful, top-collector condition.

This is a phenomenal, clean-playing copy of a rare 90s alternative rock masterpiece. Will be packed securely in a
professional cardboard record mailer to ensure safe transit.
