Record is EX+, apart from 2 thin surface marks, on side 1 and 1 on side 2 (which are not audible), the vinyl is unmarked, and just 2 slight spindle marks, visible under spotlight on the label on both sides.
It plays really well, with just some occasional feint background noise in some of the quieter moments.
The cover is EX+, it was not laminated, but has kept well, excellent spine, and crisp record opening, just handling wear on the top and bottom edges, and has only very slight partial ringwear ringwear on the back cover, and to a lesser extent some very feint partial ringwear on the front cover
The cover and record look a lot newer than a 40 year old record.
The record will be packed in a stiff package specifically designed for sending vinyl throught the post, with added protection on the corners.
