There are the usual hisses and crackles that may be expected of an album of this age but no skips, jumps and not warped.
General
I understand that these mono copies were only available from the record's release in 1967 until early 1968 as the major UK record companies were in the process of phasing out mono in favour of stereo. I am also told that the mono mix is quite different from the stereo mix.
Both labels have the 'Sold in UK...' text
Disc: Still retains a good sheen.
I do not have the appropriate materials to give this vinyl a proper deep clean so have not done anything other than wipe with an anti-static cloth.
I have played the entire album before listing and can confirm the record remains of good quality
There are numerous hairlines marks and smudges that can be seen some that could be called a scratch but nothing has a major effect on play - see photos for examples.
No skips or jumps or loud pops. There is some light crackle, but this is by no means constant and in no way overpowers the music.
I am a personal seller decluttering some of my personal belongings and items so forgive me if information you need is not present. Please get in touch if you require further details or more photographs.
I am willing to consider offers on this as other than my eBay research I know little about the market value of such an item. I can say it comes from a record collection I started in the early 70s so I either purchased it or was gifted it. It has been carefully stored throughout the time i have had it.
I am a trustworthy eBay seller as my excellent 100% feedback will testify to so please be confident in the details and service I provide.
