Detailed Descriptions
The Sleeve: VG- Has 3 creases to the front 2 small to near the front opening. Very mild ringwear to the front. There is some yellow staining marks to the flipbacks and some rubbing damage near the flipback top right corner. There is no laminate lift or writing any where on the sleeve. Some small stain marks to the rear. The spine is clearly readable There has been some rubbing damage to the top rear right hand corner nothing too obvious though. Overall much better condition than some I have seen for sale. Please refer to pictures for reference.

The Labels: VG Has lots of spindle marks otherwise not much wear on the actual spindle areas. No nasty marks stickers or any writing to either side.
