This album is part of a private collection bought on release by the owner. It has been played literally a hand full of times on very high quality equipment, and then spent the rest of its life safe on the collection. This album is in superb condition of its age, has been cared for, ( under played and not over handled some might say!)

The Labels : The Black side label is unmarked, with just the trace lines of spindle placeing, visible on very close examination. The B side is the same. The colour and print is pristine and has the correct mis-spellings, There is no signs of handling.

The Record: This is glossy, dark with no scatches or blemishes. The record had very light playing over a short period, and then has remained in its sleeve. As near to mint as you could ask. Under very bright light there are a very few thin lines on the non playing surfaces visible from manufacture or removeing from the sleeve.

The Inner Sleeve: This is original (see above) and has yellowed a little over time (see photos).

The Outer Sleeve: The sleeve shows signs of minimal handling, the edges have slight wear and the spine is intact with all writing fully visible. The surfaces are uncreased and clean, and they are not faded . There is a very small (3mm approx) scuff mark at the upper front right cover but it does not effect the overall illustration. There is some slight staining (water mark) at the very bottom left of the rear cover, and a little, on the rear right of the rear cover, close to the edge.

This is a very fine example of this most sought after edition, complete, and cared for by the original owner. Good luck with the bidding!
