CONDITION REPORT
THE VINYL: conservatively graded at VG (Very Good )
Visual: Good gloss with some superficial surface hairlines and paper scuffs visible under direct light from normal sleeve retrieval over the years. No deep, feelable scratches. Labels are clean, bright, and free of writing, major spindle wear or flaking.
Audio: Plays through cleanly, loudly, and with clarity and minimal background noise on standard audio setup. No jumps, no sticks, and great fidelity throughout.
THE GATEFOLD SLEEVE: Very Good (VG)
Structure: Solid, clean, and beautifully kept. The fragile spine is strong, uncrushed, and fully readable across both text plates (see photos). Inner lyric panels are intact, crisp, and unfaded. Some edge wear to corners and from record retrieval.
Wear: Minimal edge wear from careful shelf storage. Includes a small vintage price sticker on the top front corner, authentic to the period. No seam splits, tears, or writing.
