NOTE:  Upon re-examing the cover, I need to note a couple minor flaws that I had not previously noticed.  Looking at the reverse, please note that there are three places with a tiny pair of staple holes.  One is at the top right corner (reverse) which is also visible on the front at the top left.  The other two sets are only visible on the reverse, and are vertically placed on the opening edge, one is 4 inches from the top, and the other is 3 inches from the bottom.  You may be able to see them on the enlarged view, but they are not easily notice and do not detract significantly from the overall beauty of the jacket.  I have never seen a copy of this album with such a stunningly vivid front cover art, without any trace of surface or ring wear whatsoever.  Despite the aforementioned minor flaws, this remains a gorgeous jacket, nicer than most.
