                                                        Condition                                      Vinyl : excellent +: apart from a couple of clicks and pops on the first track of side 2. Otherwise the vinyl retains a health sheen sheen and sound quality is excellent.

Labels : as new - no spindle marks or wear suggesting that this item has been played very little.

Sleeve :  very good  -: light ring wear to front and back, otherwise front and back are generally clean and bright apart from a little age related 'greying' to the back, wear and some creasing to the corners particularly the spine end corners where there is also some creasing to the laminate and spine on the front and back sides. There is a small liquid mark (back top left hand corner)  - the spine is generally sound and intact but with a couple of small creases where the laminate has worn through. The spine has been partially 'flattened' as is common with Decca covers. The print is clearly visible and not directly affected by creasing. There are some creases in the laminate adjacent to the spine and a small area of what looks like pressure damage (front top centre) adjacent to th top edge. Otherwise there are no splits tears writing, marks or other major imperfections. NB Please note that on the back of the sleeve the name of the band member 'LES PODREZA' appears to have had a clack pen line put through it and been replaced with 'BEPPO' in black ink. However it is clear from the description of other such items recorded on the Popsike site that this is how he album cover was printed, and has not been added by a previous owner. The same is true of the word 'da' which appears to be the inscription of the artist of the dragon / dinosaur printed on the back cover.

The inner sleeve has wear to the edges and corners and some creasing and is intact without splits but is the worse for wear and near the end of it's useful life.
