a real timepiece looks great! a few spindle lines and stored upright in PVC jacket for many years.some light reoval lines only a real finders dream!
plays incredible with some very light background noise could benefit from a professional clean, we don't do this its a personal thing.
light "surface only" in the quieter passages intro to *Solitude* but the overall volume of the music is easily enjoyable on the 54 year old, super shiny clean fat pre oil crisis 70s vinyl (see pics) great swirl labels...almost no marks on labels from play.
no writing stickers or tape to report.
"Vertigo Swirl" inner is a new quality repro along with a new lined sleeve.
the original swirl inner has aged and yellowed slightly but is in good order no tears or rips. on the reverse side it has a signature *see pic*

It's got a previous owners name in pen on...
