Description
Early “RVG 9 M” (both sides) cut. “Deep-groove” present only on side 2 w/no “R” & no “Inc”, as pictured. Laminated (lighter shade) teal/turquoise sleeve in decent shape (VG-), w/large tape repair at the top. Rear slick shows some age, but still well preserved. The thick vinyl record is presentable w/handling showing—plays (VG) loudly & clearly w/some nostalgic crackle throughout—not bad (but not an “Audiophile’s dream”). Overall a solid example—visually & sonically! Replacement inner, plus bonus (later period) Blue Note advertising inner included for completion.
