There are no seam splits or separations on the sleeve. Classic sleeve artwork! (You see a nipple?). The card sleeve with black slick is flat and devoid of any major issues other than very slight signs of ring wear and rubbing on edges, but this is very slight. Pasted slick on the reverse is very clean and amazing condition for its age, but does have an area on the back (top left) which has torn off years ago. There is a deletion hole visible on the front (top left, next to 'Fankhauser' in the dream bubble). On the back it is visible near the top right.
The first issue powder blue coloured Shamley labels are particularly clean and free from 'worming' or spindle wear!
The vinyl has that 'just pressed' look showing no obvious marks and no scratches and the audio quality is fabulous.
An impressive example. Some killer psych tracks here, notably 'A Visit With Ashiya', but every track is a winner here!
