THE SLEEVE

THE VERY DARK BLUE, GARROD & LOFTHOUSE, GATEFOLD SLEEVE STILL HAS IT'S ORIGINAL TITLE STICKER ON THE FRONT, AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THERE IS SOME WEAR & SOME SLIGHT INDENTED MARKS TO FRONT AND BACK. THERE IS SOME SCUFFING ALONG THE EDGES AND TO THE CORNERS. THERE ARE NO SPLITS TO ANY OF THE EDGES. INSIDE THE GATEFOLD STILL LOOKS GREAT WITH JUST SOME VERY MINOR WEAR. 

THE INNER SLEEVE

THE ORIGINAL DIE-CUT, POLY-LINED BLACK INNER SLEEVE PATENT Nos. 112 55 55 & 107 23 44. IT ALSO HAS THE TEXT “MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN”. IT IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH WEAR AND CREASING.

THE POSTERS

THE TWO POSTERS ARE BOTH PRESENT. THE BLUE POSTER IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH SOME LIGHT TANNING TO IT'S BACK. IT IS STILL NEATLY FOLDED AND HAS CLEARLY NEVER BEEN PINNED UP. THE PINK POSTER IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH SOME LIGHT TANNING TO IT'S BACK. IT IS STILL NEATLY FOLDED AND HAS CLEARLY NEVER BEEN PINNED UP. THERE IS A SMALL TEAR TO ONE EDGE AND A SMALL NICK ON ONE OF THE CREASED CORNER.

THE STICKERS

THE YELLOW & BROWN STICKERS BOTH HAVE THE TEXT "PERMANENT" ON THEIR BACKS. THESE STICKERS ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH A SMALL CREASE TO THE YELLOW STICKER. THER ARE ALSO A FEW MINOR MARKS TO EACH STICKER.  

THE VINYL

VISUALLY THE HEAVY, GLOSSY BLACK VINYL APPEARS TO BE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHTS I CAN SEE A FEW LIGHT MARKS. I HAVE CAREFULLY LISTENED TO BOTH SIDES AND CAN REPORT THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS GENERALLY EXCELLENT THROUGHOUT. I ONLY NOTED THE SLIGHTEST, OCCASIONAL SURFACE NOISE AT TIMES ON BOTH SIDES. 

THE LABELS

THE BLACK HARVEST LABELS, WITH THE OUTLINE POWDER BLUE PRISMS AND THE “GRAMOPHONE CO. LTD” TEXT AROUND THE RIMS, ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION, WITH A FEW SLIGHT SPINDLE MARKS.
