Record is EX+, the vinyl has no marks or scratches, nice black sheen, with just a few barely noticeable spindle marks. It does not look like a 42-year old record.
The LP plays superbly, with no pops or bangs, and is very quiet between tracks.
On playing the whole album, the only noise I heard was some feint background noise for a few seconds during the quiet start to track 2 side1, otherwise it sounds like new.
I would grade the cover as a G as it was manufactured with a soft textured black cover, which did not make it very hardwearing.
There is ringwear on the front and back cover, due to the ageing of the soft jet black cover.
There is a square patch of surface damage at the top-right of the front cover where a price sticker has been removed.
There is wear on the spine, corners, edges and spine, and some creasing at the corners.
Please see my feedback on selling LPs over the last couple of years.
The record will be packed in a stiff package specifically designed for sending vinyl throught the post, with added protection on the corners
