COVER
This is the correct & earliest issued laminated front Double-flipbacked Garrod & Lofthouse cover. Super clean example with no major faults. The laminate is still very shiny and only has a couple of creases visible, the corners and spine are solid and square. The rear panel ( which is normally very grubby and stained ) is again clean and bright with only a couple of faint marks. Both the rear flaps are tight with no lifting etc, overall this is a super clean and very presentable example of this rarest export cover ! ( see-pics ) EXCELLENT CONDITION
VINYL
Both sides still retain a deep glossy shine with clean playing surfaces , looks very nice. Even upon closer inspection under bright lighting, nothing more visible than some super fine wispy paper sleeve removal lines. There are no scratches, blemishes or unwanted handling marks and all tracks look fresh and faultless. Upon playing both sides deliver superb Bright , vibrant audio with no background noise or nasty ditractions, a truly exceptional example of one of the hardest export variants to find !
