CONDITION & PLAYBACK π΅
Vinyl: VG
The records retain a good gloss and present well, with light hairlines and paper scuffs visible under strong light. Playback is graded VG honestly and conservatively: there are some light ticks near a couple of run-outs and occasional surface noise in quieter passages, but importantly no skips, jumps or sticks. A solid, enjoyable playing copy that simply falls short of VG+ because of the audible background noise in places.
Sleeve: EX+
A superb original gatefold and a real standout example. Exceptionally clean, crisp and highly presentable, with none of the heavy wear so often seen on these. No writing, no major creasing, and overall one of the nicest early UK Wall sleeves Iβve come across.
COLLECTORβS NOTES π
This is a very appealing collector copy: original 1979 UK, early stampers, correct first-style sleeve, and a particularly beautiful cover. For buyers who want an authentic early UK Wall with superb presentation and honest, decent playback, this is a strong example and far more attractive than many copies that turn up in the market.
