Vinyl- EXCELLENT , VISUALLY VINYL IS NEAR MINT BUT AS THERE IS SOME SPINDLE TRACE EVIDENT TO LABELS I AM GRADING AS EXCELLENT,TEST PLAYED OVER BOTH SIDES. BOTH SIDES PLAY THROUGH WITHOUT SKIPS JUMPS OR REPEATS WITH EXCELLENT SOUND QUALITY. THERE IS SOME MINIMAL AND LIGHT CRACKLE IN THE QUIETER PASSAGES OF SIDE 1 ALTHOUGH SIDE 2 APPEARS TO BE CRACKLE FREE. THIS DOES NOT SPOIL LISTENING EXPERIENCE AS IT REALLY IS ONLY MINIMAL AND I MENTION SO AS TO GIVE AS ACCURATE DESCRIPTION AS POSSIBLE.
Sleeve - EXCELLENT+ ORIGINAL LAMINATED TO FRONT FLIPBACK SLEEVE WITH "SCALLOPED" CUTAWAYS TO TOP AND BOTTOM FLIPBACKS ONLY FOUND ON EARLIEST PRESSINGS. THESE ARE NOTORIOUSLY DELICATE SLEEVES AND ARE PRONE TO TEARING ETC. THIS ONE HAS NO TEARS SPLITS OR WRITING AND OPENING EDGE HAS A NICE CLEAN AND SHARP FINISH. A VERY WELL PRESENTED SLEEVE COMPLETE WITH POLY LINED DECCA FFSS INNER SLEEVE.
Labels- EX++ TO NEAR MINT,SOME SPINDLE TRACE VISIBLE WHEN HELD AT AN ANGLE TO LIGHT. THESE ARE ORIGINAL PRESS DECCA WIDE BAND GROOVED LABELS WITH ORIGINAL RECORDING BY TEXT AT 10 'o' CLOCK POSITION.

Normal wear and tear to the sleeve and extra items,without any major defects. Good:- The record has been played often and sound quality has deteriorated with some distortion and mild scratches.the cover and inserts suffer from folding,heavy scuffing to edges ,spine splits and discolouration.
