Pristine, unmarked and as-new playing surfaces in normal light with just natural wispy hairlines under sunlight
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
I have always found this first pressing incredibly difficult to find delivering flawless sound and even though this copy has possibly never been played, even after a clean there is still occasional surface noise/ticks - nothing overly intrusive but nevertheless still present, otherwise, it plays beautifully with nothing else to fault - lovely copy and a finer one I think would be pretty hard to find
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT+
Clean, sharp and fresh with a deep, glass-like glossy sheen to the laminated surfaces, no edge or spine rub to speak of - just a shop crease to the spine, some half-moon thumb creases near the opening edge and a soft bend on the bottom corner from the laminate being applied too tightly
INNER SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
Clean, no seam splits just a little age-related discolouration
POSTER: NEAR MINT
Clean and unmarked - never been hung - practically untouched
POSTCARD: NEAR MINT
Again, clean and unmarked
