CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT
Bright & unworn with the only blemishes being a few aged fingermarks and two faint spindle trails.
Visual: VERY GOOD +
Clean & glossy playing surfaces which bear some light surface marks consistent with inner-sleeve removal/storage, along with a few light fingernail scuffs, but nothing I would call a scratch.
Sound Quality: EXCELLENT
All tracks on this well looked-after copy play without any groove/playwear. My playcheck detected some low-level vinyl background between tracks, but no significant or major audible faults.
Cover: VERY GOOD +
Clean & strong with minor storagewear to the front panel. There is slight wear to the corner tips but both opening edges are straight and unworn. The rear panel also displays a touch of storage rubbing but is otherwise unblemished.
There is a 5cm split to the lower seam but the upper one and the spine are fully intact with all of the lettering present.
