• The COVER is in NICE VG CONDITION with light to moderate overall wear mostly in the form of some aging and “foxing” (age spotting) mostly around the edges on the front and rear covers. There are a few small (less than 1 inch) and very light creases on the front cover perpendicular to the spine and a very light crease near the lower right front cover, . There is just a little bit of cracking on one of the top seams, but there are NO seam splits, NO ring wear, NO writing and NO tears on this cover.

• Due to the primarily white cover, this is a tough LP cover to find without any aging or soiling.

• The VINYL is also in NICE VG CONDITION with a number of very light/slight surface hairlines/scuffs (none are “feelable”). The vinyl has LOTS of GLOSS. The labels have a flat, not glossy, texture as you can see in the images.
