The jacket is in VG+ condition with the beginning of a split bottom seam, but is otherwise clean with no writing.   The LP looks to be in very strong VG condition, but actually plays more like VG+.  There are numerous light, stray marks on either side of the record that result in some crackling, but nothing that seems to overpower the music.  This is certainly not a perfect copy, but is a rather nice copy of an extremely rare, original jazz LP.  Don't miss out.

Bid with confidence.  All items are securely and carefully packaged in cardboard record mailers with stiffeners to ensure safe arrival.  All records are shipped in sleeves outside of the jacket to ensure a safe journey.  Items are shipped promptly, typically the following business day from completed payment.  Thank you for considering this auction.
