CONDITION

Disc

Visual: NMINT

Stunning NMINT vinyl in the condition it left the factory. The heavy duty vinyl lies 100% flat on the turntable.

Labels: NMINT

Superb flawless labels with no writing to any label.

Audio:NMINT

One very careful playcheck revealed stunning and unworn audio. I did detect a touch of light surface noise at high volume in some passages although this is to be expected after 47 years of storage. Needless to say the record does not jump or stick.

Cover

EX+ / NMINT- 

The sleeve to Imagine is notoriously flimsy and susceptible to wear, this cover is in outstanding condition.

POSTER:  MINT-

POSTCARD:  MINT-

Inner-sleeves - Excellent+

Original 1971 inner with some natural ageing.
