This copy will s very nice and sounds fantastic. There is some general wear but not too bad. The disc has some scuffs and a few light marks but it plays clearly with only a bit of light background crackle in a few places, really mostly only between tracks and in quieter parts. Hardly noticeable. The cover has a 2” seam split at the bottom, and some light corner and edge wear, but is otherwise quite strikingly clean and crisp. Really a nice original copy. Rare to find an original stereo in any condition!
