Cover: Garrod & Lofthouse 1st pressing laminated front (unlaminated rear) with triple flip-backs. Clear readable spine. No writings, doodles or seam splits. Some minor top and bottom edge wear. Because this cover has no messages/writings or any other ink blemishes it has to rate as Excellent - almost impossible to get a cover without some sort of writing on it.
Original EMI poly-lined inner sleeve: VG+. No writings or doodles.
Labels: Excellent. No writings, stickers or doodles.
Vinyl: Play tested. Thick heavy duty 1st pressing vinyl. Looks VG to VG+ with a very nice sheen and a few long non-feelable hairlines. No skips/jumps. Plays VG+ to Near Excellent with some light crackle in the quieter moments and the occasional cick/pop. A testimony to the quality of these 1st pressings that it plays so well after all these years.
