Cover:
EX matt finish: insignificant ring-wear (inner & outer rims), minor creasing (corners), light scuffing along seams, NO SEAM SPLITS, few tiny spot stains.
Record:
EX+ visual: beautiful glossy sheen—few insignificant hairlines, few light surface scuffs at beginning of track 2 (track 1: M-, track 2: VG+ first half then M-, track 3: M-); audible: sounds great overall despite some underlying surface noise (track 1: EX, track 2: VG+ first half then M-, track 3: M-). AN ENJOYABLE LISTENING EXPERIENCE! ; labels: HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR, few tiny spot stains (side 2).
THIS EP HAS HARDLY SEEN THE LIGHT OF DAY SINCE IT WAS RELEASED 29 YEARS AGO. IMPRESSIVE COPY – BID WITH CONFIDENCE!
